Lies They Taught You In School
Ойын-сауық
Lies! They're everywhere these days, and they take all sorts of different forms. But perhaps the most difficult to suss out are those that have just become accepted as common knowledge. When everyone just knows something is true, nobody even thinks to question it - not even your teachers sometimes.
You'd be surprised how many things you were taught by society aren't quite true. Do you really know the truth of the first Thanksgiving? Are the rules of grammar real? Did Benjamin Franklin discover electricity when he flew that kite, and did Thomas Edison invent the light bulb to harness it? Turns out you need to use more than 10% of your brain to uncover all the lies they taught you in school.

You can end a sentence with a preposition. But if you do, those who know will see that you don't.
The U.S. Coast Guard use special gloves to protect from body heat lose while in the water. They did studies on body heat loss and discovered that you lose the most heat through your exposed hands because of the thinness of skin and the large amount of veins in the hands. They found that to survive in cold water, keeping your hands warm was the most important thing. If your hands are expose in very frigged water, you will suffer from hypothermia within just a few minutes. If your hands are kept warm, you can survive many hours if not days.

As it may be true we lose the most heat from the hands (idk I haven't researched it) there is no way it's so much more heat loss in the hands than the rest of the body and so that just covering your hands alone and keeping them warm in water that would normally give you hypothermia within minutes would let you survive days longer.

In addition, he takes those alternate interpretation to extremes that aren't really and couldn't really be supplied by the given knowledge. Some of what this guy's telling is actually just clever word play. Yes, we use "varying degrees of the brain throughout the day... Using PARTS of the entire brain, at all times", those PARTS could equal over 10 percent of Total brain power throughout the day, but Never are we Using more than say half of the actual brain parts at once in a single day, for instance. This guy needs to check his word play at the door and quit spreading false information using these techniques. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️🤷🤷♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️

Brain tells you where each body part is even when not looking at them so can stand up even in the dark and feel your way around even when dark and handle objects even in the dark so can turn on the light switch or get the flashlight if power is out. It also regulates body temperature so if to cold will shiver if to warm will sweat.

I thought they would go to the hospital so the doctor could take out the watermelon and open it to give them their baby. I stopped eating watermelons. Or apples. Nobody wants an apple tree growing out of their mouth. Then cabbage Patch kids happened and I was seriously confused. WTF. Told my grandma when I was like 19 how bad that messed me up. LOL

@@mattschehr163 people do a lot of things “all the time;” it doesn’t make them good choices. In almost any professional context, ending sentences with prepositions will be seen as a negative and be indicative of a lack of attention to detail and/or ignorance of basic grammar. The same applies to misspelled words, errors for which there is no excuse after the advent of spell check more than 25 years ago, yet I see them every day. When I see badly written work project, I’m seeing it from attorneys as a judge. When you have limited opportunity to make a first impression, little things count. If you prefer for this to be the hill you choose to die on rather than doing work properly then you’ll have to endure the consequences accordingly. For what it’s worth I’m not old but rather believe in using best efforts in work product. If you want to write informally outside of a work context among peers who sound equally clueless then have at it. The repercussions will be minimal. The same won’t apply at work for most jobs.

I am sure this could be a clue to what blue blood is, if you look close at raw versions of either stone, you see that there a sometimes little veins, that resemble veins on the human body, but most people see cut stones and hardly ever take the time to examine less expensive raw opaque versions, just coz the cheap stuff looks less attractive than the crown jewel standard, doesn't make it a different stone, and of course, the reptiles come from emeralds, only joking.
