We didn't think you knew these things you didn't know before reading this message! :-) I'm betting you tried to lick your elbow when you read this!

Are there other weird facts that we didn't know we didn't know till someone pointed the facts out to us? Point away!

It's not physically impossible to lick your elbow, it's just the average person can't do it because they don't stretch enough. There's a lot of people who can lick their elbows.

did you know....

back in the 1800's a prince,named albert relized his genitals were always sore after a battle,from swinging around.so his solution was to stick a ring through his uretha,and tie his noodle to his leg.

since then people have pierced the area down stairs for stimilation purposes.this has become known as a "prince albert".

that is also the fastest healing piercing,urine is sterile,and makes it heal very fast.just a few facts,

o,and why do they say"just my 2 cents"when usally their advice is worthless?
