Proof that the same side of our brain cannot do 2 different things at
once...


While sitting at a chair, make clockwise circles with your right foot.

While doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right hand.

Your foot will change direction.

Isn't that like rubbing your head and patting your stomach? If you try to quickly change and then pat your head and rub your stomach, you can't do it... hehe

hey guys I was just curious as to what kind of random bits of facts or what u believe is a fact, or what you heard was a fact (of anything) you guys know. anything goes...

Me first, do you guys know how Hookers got the name of hookers? Well it turns out that during WWI a general by the name of Joseph Hooker had soldiers complaining that there was nothing to do between shifts. So to aleveate their bordom general Hooker decided to bring in some ladies to "entertain" (if ya know what I mean) the boys. And so when the boys would want to be "entertained" they would always call for one of Hooker's girls. hence the name hooker. Next...

You can't fold a piece of paper in half more than eight times, no matter how big.

If you can fold it 7 times (or 64 sheets -> 128 sheets), I'd be impressed.
