Write here the weirdest and the most useless information you know. Something we dont know and our life doesn't depend on it. But don't get dirty!

For an example: Did you know that 0,2% of the population of Finland are immigrants originally from Romania. Fascinating...

Did you know that 87% of all statistics are made up on the spot?

If you are smart, you might figure it out.

Did you know that on 14th November in the year 1920, the first pesäpallo match (finnish version of baseball) ever was played in Kaisaniemi?

Did you know that 5 out of every 4 americans (5/4) cant do fractions?

Whoa... And I thought Swedes were stupid (no offense)

Swedes? Is this some sort of joke?! Swedes are some of the smartest people on the planet.

No they aren't. At least in test they do worse than finns. And there's a long rivarly between finns and swedes, in case you did not know.

I've always thought the the Fins were the stupider ones. I mean, the Swedes have got Volvo and ABBA, plus sex.

Well according to a study made recently we are better. I'm not sure where it was made, I just read from a newspaper. Anyways, we finns have Nokia, Santa Claus, a president who looks like Conan O'Brien, reindeers, pesäpallo etc. And we are one of the top countries in education and technology.

But Sweden has Ericsson, which is most likely the greatest mobile phone company of all time, pioneering the use of PDA functions in a mobile phone (the manufacturing is now merged with Sony to create Sony Ericsson). Volvos are also pretty much the safest cars around, with a reputation for manufacturing safe and reliable cars. The Swedes also invented the three-way safety belt, which has saved lives. The Swedes also have ABBA, the second best band of all time. The Swedes are also sexy, I think Sweden has won the Miss. Universe contest three times, the most of any European nation. On the other hand, Finland has got Linus Torvalds, that evil man who sold his soul to the devil and created Linux, which has just been a nightmare.

No matter who much you write, I still believe in that news article.Even if Swedens tenchonology etc is better, our schools and health system rules. At least their children are stupid.

But what about the Japanese, South Koreans, and Taiwanese? They have pretty much the best education systems in the entire world.

True, but Finland is better in that than Sweden. Besides in these countries not everybody can go to school. In Finland every body can go school for free (not really, paid with taxes) and have the supplies and food for free.

Sounds like communism when you put it like that.

I hate when thinks Finland is a communistic country

1# We aren't. We beat them up in the years 1939-1945
2# Our economy is in such great shape, we can make our schools better
3# Our graduants are one of the best in Europe (which means they are better than americans )
4# I don't know what's next. We are better than Swedes. Period.

I didn't say that Finland is communist. But you were talking like it was some sort of communist dreamland. Maybe if you want people to know that you're not communist, you should start not describing your nation as communist.

I just don't understand, what makesit sound communist if I just say that our school don't cost anything extra bicedes taxes. We still have to pay for it, but not so much and it still covers lunch and supplies (in hgh school we don't get free supplies though)

And in case you haven't noticed, I'm very patriotic, so you shouldn't talk crap about Finland if you don't want a aggressive respond.

My point exactly.

Technically they aren't free. We still pay taxes so that our children can go to school "for free". We just tend to say it is.

My point exactly.

What are you? Suicidal?

It's not completely free. We still pay taxes so that we can go to school. Get that through your thick head, will ya!

did you know your body is 70% made up of water

72, actually.

lol everyday i keep hearing it change the first time i heard it,it was 65,the 68,then,70,now its 72?!?!

*sarcastically* So that's where all the water's going!!!!!1

The United States have free schooling too... oh no! We're communist!

Except that we pay taxes and then have to provide our own stuff.

Um, as the Humpster has said several times, they pay taxes too. And the school supplies aren't much compared to teacher salaries and such. Like, 30 dollars a year at most for the basics.

Hello? Bringing your own printer paper? Speaking of which, I should have brought dot matrix paper as a joke, we have so much of that at home.

Lol. What are all these dots on my paper?!

But paper is not very expensive, and the school pays for the computers and software and hardware and the building and the video projectors and all that.

Do you even know what dot matrix is?

Erm, sorry. What are all these tiny grid lines on my paper?!

No, if you put it in a regular printer, it still prints out like a normal document. The distinguishing feature of dot matrix paper is the strips on the sides that have holes, and the papers being connected together at the ends.

Oh... that stuff.

Janitor: What are all these dot-matrix-paper-liners strown about on the floor?!

No, cuz the holes come from a protruding strip that's perforated. So unless you remove the strips with the alignment holes, it won't fit in the printer. So imagine a Christian student going, "Wah!!!!!!11 The paper won't go in!!!!!!!!!1".

But when people do remove them, they'll be strewn all over the floor.

The point is, we need to rebel and all start bringing in dot matrix paper and then the district will be so baffled they'll all have a breakdown, mentally, and maybe even physically.

Thank God, at least somebody understands!

You have a nice talk going on, but you're getting off topic!

Did you know, that by recyeling just one soda can, you get enough energy to watch 3 Futurama episodes?

Did you know that I exist?
Did you know that there are two types of people in this world?
Did you know that I can sneeze?
Did you know that there are three subcatagories in each of the two types?
Did you know that the debate about Fins/Swedes, Public Eduction, Communism & Printer paper is truly fascinating but also off topic?

Did you know that's pretty annoying?

A) stop asking stupid questions
B ) write useless information that we DO NOT know (we all know you sneeze and exist.)

Like did you know, that in Finland the 5,6% speak swedish as their native tongue?

35% of all people that use dating services, are married.

thats sad... Maybe were relaying on technology a little to much.

Yeah, we do rely on technology too much.

Here's another weird fact: A duck's quack never echos and no one knows why.

the mythbusters tried that, didnt they...

when jamie hold the duck
"quack [bleeped!] you"-jamie

I don't watch mythbusters so I couldn't tell you. I love weird facts there just so much fun!

Was he using a male duck? Wikipedia says that only some female ducks quack. Wikipedia also says that the not-echoing thing is false. I use Wikipedia too much.

Dude, this is too weird. Even for me

The word "weird" can mean "fate" or "destiny" when used as a noun.

In a recent MTG set (dissention, I think) there exists the creature type "weird".

The myth that coke was originally green is 100% false. The original recipie called for caramel to give it it's brown color. However, Coke has been packaged in green bottles, which may be the source of the myth.

There's a stuffed husky next to my keyboard right now.
