The only temperatures that are the same on both the Fahrenheit and Celcius Scale is -40.
But a couple of handy C/F conversion related reminders using inverses of numbers:

16C = 61F
28C = 82F


If you have big life events at Ages 16 and 28 (or maybe 1961 & 1982?) you can remember this.

Generally speaking, people buy pizza in an unrational way and restaurants do not know how to properly price them.

The area of a circular pizza scales quadratically.*

Let's say a 10" pizza costs $13 and a 14" costs $17.

The 10" has about half of the area of the 14" pizza which only costs $3 more than the 10". Always get the bigger pizza.















*This analysis is only for circular pizzas. People who prefer quadralateral pizzas are monsters and restaurants that serve them should be shut down en masse.

The frigate bird can fly at speeds of over 95mph, and can stay on the wing, without landing, for over a week.

The only faster animal on earth is the peregrine falcon, which, during a dive, can travel faster than 200mph.

False. Golden eagles can dive upwards of 200 mph also, only eclipsed by the peregrine falcon.

The word "computer" has been used to refer to a person since 1613, to a machine since 1869, and to an electronic device since 1946.

The word "mortgage" comes from the French expression meaning "death pledge".

Blew my mind when I found this out.

My favorite haribo flavor. Yet I hate strawberry flavored things.




My fact: a dork is another term for a whale dick.

That's a thing you know now.
