Things I learned lately 17 July

  • Competition hot dog eaters can eat as many as 84 hot dogs in 10 minutes.
  • Lake Superior contains enough water to flood the entire North American land mass to a depth of 30 centimetres.
  • If you store cookies in a sealed container with a piece of bread, they'll soak up some moisture and stay soft.
  • There is a movement afoot to completely decriminalize personal drug possession of any kind in Canada. And many police forces support it.
  • You can order a Toblerone with a personalized message instead of the name Toblerone! I'd make mine TBBLOBNOERN so it looks like a defective bar.
  • If you have somewhat of a double chin or you want your jawline to be more defined in a picture, put your tongue on the roof of your mouth.
  • If you live in the EU, Google has a URL removal tool to wipe certain instances of personal info from their search.
  • Over 1,000,000 Mazda Miata cars have been sold. They broke the one million barrier in 2016.

  • Shipping containers don't really make good, practical homes. Every cut you make in the structure has to be accounted for in expensive reinforcement. Also, metal is a lousy thermal insulator.
