    Is it possible to bottle a fart while maintaining its freshness?
  • You could get one of those fancy fake PhD papers printed out for you. It should say you got a degree in flatulometry from the university of Arse, Indonesia. Add more toilet puns just to make sure people stop by and actually read all of it when visiting your office where you have this paper on display.

    Vampires are evil because they're incapable of self-reflection.
  • Isn’t it evil enough that you don’t avoid evil actions? Is it necessary to take it a step further by intentionally favoring evil actions or even restricting yourself to exclusively evil behaviors.

    Chinese Farmers Spraying Wolfberries With Industrial Sulfur: State Media - Business Insider
  • The “industrial sulfur” is actually sodium metabisulfite or E223 (preservative). According to the article, the farmers aren’t supposed to use this preservative at all, so there may be some restrictions with this specific berry.

    According to this article E223 is GRAS and approved by several food authorities. Obviously, there are restrictions, so you can’t do whatever you want.

    Any observation can be turned into an interesting question.
  • Why is it empty? Should there even be something in there? If it’s blank variable before a loop, it probably should be empty before you start appending stuff in it. If that’s the case, great job. 👍

    There is no history on the History channel. There's nothing true on TruTV. There's no music on music television. There's no science on the science channel.

    When I bite my nails while wearing sound cancelling earbuds, I can hear a moment of static as my skull absorbs the sound or whatever. What's going on here?
  • Theoretically, that could help a little bit, but it won’t change the fact that the ear canal is only the gateway to the organ where hearing actually takes place. Due to bone conduction, the crunchy noises can take a shortcut and bypass the outer ear completely.

    If seeing someone 4 days consecutively is seeing them 4 days in a row, does that mean seeing someone every Monday of a month is seeing them 4 days in a column?
  • Did you know you can also store your data on random pieces of paper of various sizes and shapes, and pile them on the kitchen table? You also get bonus points, if you write/draw the data using colorful crayons! I call it the CLUTTER format which stands for: Chaotic Loosely Unstructured Tangled Tornado Explosion Records. It’s a new data storage method, and I’m pretty sure it will catch on.

  • While I was in the shower, I thought of a brilliant idea! Let’s trigger several smaller volcanic eruptions that release a semi-controlled amount of volcanic ash into other atmosphere. That will cool down the atmosphere, which should buy us some time to fix our carbon emissions.

    Then I realized, that doing so would block visible light. Plants need the light to grow, and we need the plants to breathe and eat. Obviously, this is not going to be a long term solution. Oh, and how do you even make sure the volcanic eruption doesn’t spiral out of control and suddenly spew out 50 times the ash we were aiming for. Oh, and volcanoes also spew CO2 and even nastier gases, so… It sounded so good while I was still in the shower. The more I think about it, the worse it gets.
