So today we are going to play a little game. Today is Snapple Cap True or False! Play along, keep score, and let us know how you did in the comments below. And be truthful! They auctioned off 5,000 roosters, and the event was a big success. Construction began, and eventually the Rooster Bridge opened. It was a very appropriate name. In 2019, California passed AB 1132, which makes it unlawful to use caller ID information to impersonate a state, federal, or local government agency. There is also a law dealing with “spoofing,” which is the transmission of misleading or inaccurate caller ID information with the intent to defraud, cause harm, or wrongly obtain anything of value. But using regular caller ID is perfectly legal.
When a bee is near, an elephant will flap its ears wildly and kick up clouds of dust. But the weird thing about it is that a bee’s stinger is unable to penetrate an elephant’s thick hide. So what are the elephants afraid of? Maybe it’s the buzzing noise. I mean, they do have very big ears. Chicago earned that name because of the strong odor from a vast number of garlic and onion plants that grew wild in the area. All of them Let that sink in. Everything everyone has posted on Twitter through midnight on December 31st, 2017 is stored on servers by the federal government. A press release from the Library of Congress announced that starting at 12:01 am on January 1st, 2018, they would collect “selected tweets” instead of all tweets. Which means, with the help of Twitter, they are targeting which people or groups’ tweets should be collected. This is not an exclusively American phenomenon either. Professional RPS leagues and tournaments can be found in Canada and the UK as well! Proboscis cannot be called “teeth” because at no point are they used to chew food. The same thing can be done with eyeglasses or a magnifying glass and would be much easier. The truth is, spiders are afraid of movements made by humans. This is especially true when it comes to our breathing. Spiders would stay as far away from a human’s mouth as they could. Exactly what do they consider an “average human” to be exactly? Flash ahead to 1922, and Epperson decides to patent his childhood idea. He calls the sweet, frozen treat Popsicles, and the rest is history. But SFGate, a news site in San Francisco, did a little digging and here’s what they found: First, looking back at the weather history of San Francisco, the lowest recorded temperature in 1911 was 39. So, no, it didn’t freeze. Second, although it didn’t freeze in 1911, it did freeze a few times between 1908 and 1924 in Oakland, which is where the Eppersons relocated during those years. There were also various “frozen treats on a stick” products that predated Popsicles by quite a bit. Is the story true? Maybe. But the details of the story are not. We know that. This thing is, we have popsicles, so who really cares? There have even been videos posted all over the internet showing that a duck’s quack does echo. But people still insist that the myth is a reality. And it’s not just bananas. We share 60% with fruit flies and chickens, and 99.8% with chimpanzees. But the basic elements of the story stay the same. The law is actually more about disturbing the peace than singing, but it’s still pretty weird. The first ATM was actually installed in 1967. Many different people and companies have tried to take credit for inventing it, as there have been many versions through the years. No matter how you look at it, Snapple is wrong. The rubber ball is more pliable and will lose some of its shape upon impact and then regain it as it bounces. This uses quite a bit of energy. A marble is not pliable and will retain its shape when it hits a hard surface. This allows more energy to be distributed to the bounce. Of course, the percentage of times this happened was 51–55%, so it is far from a sure thing. So now we know that Snapple lies to us. What kind of world are we living in where a juice company will lie to us? Have you seen any Snapple caps that have seemed too crazy to be real? Tell us about it in the comments below.
