Did you know . . .
« on: March 12, 2017, 03:48:27 PM »
There are roughly 200 corpses on Mount Everest that are used as way points for climbers.

France's longest land border is with Brazil.

In World War II, during Operation Cottage, the US and Canadian troops suffered more than 300 casualties in a battle fought against literally no opposing forces.

The moon can be seen from the Great Wall of China.

Everything in the universe is either a banana or not a banana.

Nope. The moon can't be seen from Chile.

No, if you were born yesterday, it would have been difficult to converse with you in Frankie and Bennys in January. Now, had you said acting like you were born yesterday . . .

Yes, but then it wouldn't be real, would it?

January - that must have been the time I watched you scoff two vegan pizzas in F&B's, as opposed to the previous occasion, when I watched you scoff a much less healthy brace of BBQ chicken pizzas.
I apologise, in advance.
