I believed that I wanted the ability to read other peoples' thoughts...then I spent 10 minutes on social media and I'm over it. TMI

My mom had me convinced forever that you cant have any lights on inside the car while driving at night because it was not.

The earth clearly isn't flat... if it was then cats would have pushed everything off the edge by now...

I just wanted to say THANK YOU because I have autism, and it'sa lot better than not getting vaciens.I see it as an insult how bad it's made out to be and hearing someone standing up for those who have it feels great because it's really misunderstood I'm taking college level classes despite my “dissabbelity” so Thank you

[DrHaydentheFunny]

As someone with autism, thanks for #4. For #2, I actually suffer from epilepsy, so I've actually used 100% of my brain a few times, unfortunately.

[qstudios]

"if use 100% of your brain simultainiously its called a seizure" 🤣

[thegreennate]

You know what is really annoying? When someone says, "if you don't wear a coat when it's cold out, you'll get a cold." Colds are caused by bacteria, not the tempter!

The myth of Vikings having horns on their helmets comes from "The Ring Cycle" operas of Richard Wagner. The horns were considered more barbaric, ergo more appropriate for Vikings.
