Honey is the only food that does not spoil. Honey found in the tombs of Egyptian pharaohs has been tasted by archaeologists and found edible.
Coca-Cola would be green if colouring weren’t added to it.
The average lead pencil will draw a line 35 miles long or write approximately 50,000 English words.
"Rhythm" is the longest English word without a vowel.
Human thigh bones are stronger than concrete.
Earth is the only planet not named after a god.

1. can honey spoil: "Many would say, "Never. Honey has an indefinite shelf life." That is true only if the honey is stored sealed and at proper temperatures. Temperatures over 81°F degrade the honey and could start fermentation."
2. from my understanding of "y", the use in rhythm makes it act like a vowel. "a, e, i, o, u and SOMETIMES y", that would be an example of the sometimes.
3. hmmm sort of. depends, since earth has/can be(en) called "gaia" or "terra mater/tellus" depending on whether you were greek or roman respectively

In the weightlessness of space a frozen pea will explode if it comes in contact with Pepsi.
SCUBA divers cannot pass gas at depths of 33 feet or below.
Replying more than 100 times to the same piece of spam e-mail will overwhelm the sender's system and interfere with their ability to send any more spam.
Silly Putty was "discovered" as the residue left behind after the first latex condoms were produced. It's not widely publicized for obvious reasons.

He was every right to do so if you post misleading or false information.
1. If you are right handed, you will tend to chew your food on your right side. If you are left handed, you will tend to chew your food on your left side.
2. If you stop getting thirsty, you need to drink more water. For when a human body is dehydrated, its thirst mechanism shuts off.
3. Chewing gum while peeling onions will keep you from crying.

1. stop posting false info and misleading people then ffs. if you're going to post random facts to boost your numbers at least do it intelligently.
2. no. the pepsi would evaporate the second the can was opened, which would be instantly b/c the pressure difference would implode the can. the pea would be crushed in space b/c of the pressure and lose of moisture much like the can.
plus you cant exactly "pour" in space, provided the liquid didnt evaporate (like it would) the liquid would simply float out of the can in lil bubbles, not pour in a stream. so even w/o the impossibility of the situation gl combining the pea and pop in zero g.
i prove you wrong at every turn. just start posting true statements and i wouldnt have a problem with your posts and post # padding.
