1.
That Marilyn Manson had a rib removed to suck his own member -
2.
That if you swallow gum it takes 7 years to digest -
3.
Detoxing treatments...... NO Sharon, "harmful chemicals" are not just going to ooze out of your face and feet if you use that mask... That's not how the human body works at all damn! -
4.
That you need to wait 24 hours to report someone as missing. You can, and SHOULD, report someone as missing as soon as they go missing. It could be the difference between finding someone who had a bad fall at home or getting lost in the forest, and finding their body. -
5.
"You can't get STDs from oral sex" One of the clinics I work at is a free sexual health clinic. Too many women are in there for mouth/throat/other digestive problems stemming from unprotected oral sex and various STDs. -
6.
That you can target fat on a particular place on your body, like tummy fat. Fat doesn't know where it lives. -
7.
You don't eat spiders in your sleep. -
8.
"Blood is blue inside your body & red when it comes out." Nope. -
9.
Boiling frogs. Frogs jump out of water when it gets too warm for them. -
10.
Our seventh grade English teacher Miss Jackson was not in Playboy in the 1980s... It does not matter that your brother's cousin's neighbor has the actual issue and they are going to bring it in to school someday. -
11.
That touching baby birds or rabbits will cause their mothers to reject them because they smell like human. They absolutely will not. Don't go messing with babies for kicks, but if you can put a baby (that you are 100% sure belongs there) back in it's nest, do so. If you aren't sure, call a wildlife rehabilitator so you're not putting fledgelings where they don't belong. -
12.
That it's a felony offense to rip the tag off of your Mattress. There was a major scandal in the past, where a couple mattress manufacturers were recycling used mattresses, re-stuffing them, and subsequently reselling them. It is ONLY illegal for stores and manufacturers to rip the tags off of new mattresses for sale. However, once you buy it, and your mattress warranty expires (usually after 1 year or less), feel free to rip that annoying tag off -
13.
The idea that there are people in your neighborhood just waiting for the chance to poison your kids by giving them unwrapped Halloween candy. -
14.
That daddy long legs are the most venomous spiders in the world, but their fangs just aren’t big enough to spread enough venom. Edit: I’m referring to cellar spiders. Daddy long legs is vague term that describes several types of arachnids, none of them are venomous though. -
15.
That people only use 10 percent of your brain. That is only true for politicians
