  4. and the missing full moon fact was wrong as well
    There was, in fact, a full moon in February, 1865. It occurred on 1865 February 10 at 16:27 UTC.
    The specific chart is the USNO 1865 Moon Phases document.
    This is not to say, however, that it is impossible for February to miss the full phase. The moon phases cycle every 29.5 days. Februrary, with 28 days (and 29 on a leap year), does miss a phase periodically.
    In fact 1866, 1885, 1915, 1934, 1961 did not have a full phase.
    As recently as 1999, there was no full moon during February.

  5. The Indianapolis Colts won a super bowl.

  9. No…go isn’t the shortest…it doesn’t have a subject and verb…in order for a sentence to be complete…it has to hav a subject AND a verb

  10. does chocolate really have 8 insect legs in it?!?!

  11. on snopes, im pretty sure they proved that donald duck wasnt actually banned in finland. but i cant remember for sure……that was a whole three days ago………….*going to snopes*

  23. The shortest sentence in the human language isn’t “I am”, it’s “Go.”

  24. I really enjoyed reading all the facts.

  25. another fun little fact:
    there is an american flag in the front of the canadian two dollar bill. Also, there is no word in the english language that doesn’t contain a vowel.

  26. Actually, you cant kill yourself by holding your breathe, you can however kill yourself by, putting a bag over your head, wet towel etc. but without assistance, just by simply holding your breathe no other instruments you cant kill yourself. you can pass out, but as soon as you do, you automatically start breathing again. thats why people put bags around there heads!

  27. Most of the people who post on here are complete idiots. sara, for example, said “duh u can kill yourself by holding your breath who dosent konw tht”, but you will go unconscious before you kill yourself, and then your body will begin to breathe automatically. Also, many people misread the fact about the Superbowl, it specifically states that no home team with a DOMED stadium ever won the Superbowl. Take a bow, my friends. Having access to the most information since the dawn of man, and yet you persist with your blind ignorance.

  28. to littleone

  29. to littleone

  30. No it is physically impossible to kill yourself by holding your breath. you might be able to make yourself pass out but as soon as you do you star to breath again.

  31. Go is a complete sentence. It has a subject and a verb. The subject is “you” understood. So yea, “go” is the shortest complete sentence in the English language.

  32. And the Superbowl one is false too. Hello, anyone heard about the Saints??!!

  33. you can to kill so yourself by holding your breathe who doesn’t know that

  34. the thing about “I am” is wrong the shortest sentence possible is “Go”

  35. to skip and alice: all those words do have vowels, just not the normal ones. have you ever heard “a, e, i, o, u, AND SOMETIMES Y AND SOMETIMES W.”

  36. yayyyy im right-handed!!! 😀
