By the way så har jag kollat upp nästan alla av dem så att de stämmer, har sorterat bort några som visade sig vara falska.
Pallade inte sitta och översätta det från originalposten som var på ett engelskt forum så ni får stå ut med att ha det på engelska. 🙂

"The rumour that computer games have an adverse affect on children is just plain nuts. If Pacman ever affected us as kids, we'd all be running around darkened rooms, munching strange pills and listening to repetitive music."

1. It's physically impossible for you to lick your elbow.
2. Almost everyone who reads this will try to lick their elbow.
3. Did you lick your elbow?

De flesta som läser texten försöker. Tom. de som redan vet att det är omöjligt, rolig suggestion bara.

Den finns på tonvis med sidor men jag har inte kunnat bekräfta den ordentligt. Har dock inte heller hittat någon som påstått att det är falskt.

jag tycker att det verkar lite konstigt. det finns ju massor med nulekära vapen ute i världen, och en sådan detonation släpper ju lös fler energiformer än bara kinetisk. den största delen blir nog värme, massor med värme. det går åt mycket röreöse energi för att skapa höga temperaturer, och i en orkan så är det ju bara rörelseenergi. att värma 150 liter vatten 20 grader (typ energin det går åt till att göra lite mysigt vatten att bada i ) är tillräckligt för att lyfta lite drygt 80kg nästan 16 km upp i luften 🙂

hahaha försökte inte slicka armbågen förra gången för att jag visste att jag skulle se ut som en idiot, men nu när jag var ensam så klarade jag att slicka just bredvid "toppen".. err det var svårt, ont gjorde det också efter ett tag 😛

Allting skulle nog kunna vara sant. Dock har jag lite svårt att tro på det där med PCP och skala av ansiktet. Verkar taget direkt ur Hannibal.
