The "I Learned Something New Today" Thread

[theFRANCHISE]

I learned that rubbing alcohol is good for getting stickers off the plastic cases of videogames and DVDs. Comes in handy when you need to re-gift! [img]http://content.boards.baltimoreravens.com//public/style_emoticons/default/wink.png[/img]

In all actuality, I was told this tip after I bought a bunch of used games from Gamestop but didn't want to show off how much of a cheapskate I am when it comes to building my gaming library.

I've also heard that using a lap top (on the lap, of course) for hours on end can decrease fertility in men.

So does this mean that the Western world is going to go extinct?

Probably because of the heat laptops generate if you don't have a cooler on it..

[BmoreRav]

I've learned that any thread can go off topic!!

But seriously, in terms of laptop heat, I've heard the same problem can occur if you're a chef! Since your standing in front of an oven for most of the day. It actually lowers your sperm count.

I learned today that orginal KKK members used to pretend they were ghosts. They would go to houses and ask for water and say they havent drank water in awhile. They would say its because they are spirits from the battle of Shiloh in the Civil War.
