GordonD Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 The Jacksons (formerly the Jackson Five) are not actually related - the group was put together following lengthy auditions in a disused second-hand car showroom in Gary, Indiana. By an odd coincidence, Jermaine's real surname is Osmond. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonD Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 (edited) While browsing in a secondhand bookshop in Dublin in 1998, Michael Flatley came across a dusty old book entitled Riverdance Volume 2: What to Do with the Arms. He paid the shop's owner IR£1,000,000 to ensure her silence, then burned it. Edited June 20, 2016 by GordonD 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullerene Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 "Astronaut" Tim Peake doesn't have a valid passport, rendering his recent trip to "outer space" as invalid. Tax officials will be waiting for him on his return to the UK. Tim Peake has missed out on all his air miles - because he really hasn't travelled anywhere recently 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Tippex was named after it's founder, Tipper Xi. It was originally going to be called TipXi, but had to change its name during the prohibition due to misleading hundreds of secret revelers to their deaths. only 4 out of 10 resident P&B pervs have rated failed Weegee popster Tippi as a "wid".

dee_62 Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Scientists confirm that long-term direct exposure to moonbeams can cause more health issues than being sun-burned every summer. That's why nature made us tired/sleepy at night and also why God invented houses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 The average Northumbrian eats roughly 1,700 fish fingers in their lifetime, which is also the same number of nerve-endings on the tip of each of your fingers.

Eednud Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 This correlation has just been disputed by Professor Wor Ja Ki who has shown that research samples were contaminated with pease pudding and Newky Brown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dee_62 Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Ian Brown is a fantastic opera singer but sings in Finnish and the end result is similar to farting through a foghorn. The 1952 Helsinki Summer Olympics committee attempted to put "farting through a foghorn" in as a demonstration sport. However, due to the remarkable similarity to Finnish singing (see above), the IOC felt this was too much of an advantage to the home nation. Instead they opted for Pesapallo, a Finnish version of Baseball, which was contested by 2 Finnish teams. The IOC subsequently identified some key staff as having received various bribes (the bags of Herring started to stink the offices out) and transferred them out of the organisation and into FIFA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 Balmoral Castle does not actually exist. It is merely a false front held up by scaffolding, behind which is a Broons-style But and Ben where the Royal Family stay when they go on holiday there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonD Posted June 22, 2016 Share Posted June 22, 2016 The Declaration of Arbroath looks the way it does because after it was written the Bishop of Arbroath accidentally put it into the shredder instead of the fax machine and had to pull it back out again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya Bezzer! Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 The Gsus4 guitar chord can only be properly played if you have 5 fingers AND a thumb on your fretting hand, and is known as the "mutant chord" because of this Hence it's frequent use in Appalachian folk music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
