Thank you! I do trivia with older blind people three times a week and I’d like to start out with an odd fact. I’m definitely going to use these so I have like 10 weeks worth :-). By the way, I’m also one of the old blind people.

That’s awesome, I’m going blind from keratoconus, I really like just lying down and listening to stuff like this! I started with spooky stories years ago and now it’s a big hobby for me since I don’t have to have my contacts in.

Fun Fact to Monopoly: Germanys Monopoly is the only "original" country-based Monopoly version, that does not use actual Berlin and its landmarks, like all other countries (like France) do. Reason: there actually was a Monopoly version based in Berlin, but one of the Nazileaders (i cant remember whether it was Göring or Göbels) didn't like to see his own home street somewhere in the middle of the game board, indicating that he is just average. so the version was banned and remade by the company to suit nazi Germanys needs. ;)

11:32 The originals were made in Britain, so the correct name (just like with football) is the British one.

The Germans call him Walter.
So, I think the main reason this series is popular, is that it stimulates our brain's constant anxiety that we're not learning as much as we're supposed to.

@2:25, I have a hard time understanding how a higher moisture content would not be better to prevent spontaneous combustion?
Higher moisture content should mean that the fuel has a harder time to ignite spontaneously?
Could anyone explain this to me? :)

2:40 i wonder if another factor in lumberjack deaths is the remoteness of the work. There are a lot of injuries that are non-fatal if an ambulance can arrive within a few minutes and the victim can be on an operating table shortly afterwards, but if youre working way out in the woods, you could bleed put/succumb to shock/whatever before medical help arrives.

Fun Fact to Monopoly:
Germanys Monopoly is the only "original" country-based Monopoly version, that does not use actual Berlin and its landmarks, like all other countries (like France) do.
Reason: there actually was a Monopoly version based in Berlin, but one of the Nazileaders (i cant remember whether it was Göring or Göbels) didn't like to see his own home street somewhere in the middle of the game board, indicating that he is just average. so the version was banned and remade by the company to suit nazi Germanys needs. ;)
Thanks you. This was as interesting and useless as the video

@@UDX6T unlike school, this is interesting
As someone who was born in Smyrna, GA and lived there for 27 years I have never been more excited by a UA-cam video
me: "hey can I learn how to do taxes?"
school: "tehee no"
me: "well what do I get then?"
school:
I wonder how many people have learned to pay their taxes without school teaching. Sorry if you’re one of the few people that are incapable of learning without being taught by school.
@@thickestofmints4058 is this a joke?
@@jyunny598 no hes just bitter
I swear school never taught anyone anything useful after child labor was outlawed.
Seriously, I learned how to file for retirement in *freshman* year of highschool. I was 15 fucking years old.
@@thickestofmints4058 you good my guy?
@@thickestofmints4058 Nobody said they couldn't. But school should also teach how to do taxes in the first place since the purpose of school is to get you into the real world.
Also you are such a bitter dude. Must be awful being that unpleasant that you take it out in UA-cam comments.
"you gotta bump those numbers up, those are rookie numbers."
- School
school doesn't teach you that stuff for the content, rather for the undertonal message
well yes but no schools would say that this is useful
We must also bump up the numbers of legos per person, it should be 100 at least!

11:32 The originals were made in Britain, so the correct name (just like with football) is the British one. American publishers thought Wally wouldn't work well with Americans and so changed it to Waldo (as if that's any better). The name changes all over the world, but I think we can all agree that the worst one is France, who call him Charlie - it isn't even alliterative, in English or French (Où est Charlie?)! The Germans call him Walter.
I love how some of these are actually kind of interesting and some of them are just completely random and stupid
They’re useless for a reason
So, I think the main reason this series is popular, is that it stimulates our brain's constant anxiety that we're not learning as much as we're supposed to. By giving us a long list of easily digestible and diversified lessons, convincing us that we've been productive by watching it without costing much effort
So its like ASMR videos where it makes feel we have done work to tidy things up though we haven't.
Thank you for making me feel bad about myself.🙃
Nah, I am overloaded on things I actually need to remember so listening to something useful would just crash me and send into BSOD.
This just sounds like procrastination with extra steps. *I like it.*

Because they are made out of latex which is biodegradable. It's the same reason we refrigerate our leftovers.
