Go to solo cup and ask them hell you don't need to ask them it right out there in the open for anyone. The lines on a solo cup ARE NOT there to "measure" your drinks they are there to stiffen the cups and that's it. Today, our party cup has no lines.
Silica gel packs are always in med bottles. cool fact about pop cans. the hole in the tab that you is use to open up the can. It's there for straws. once you open the can you spin the tab around and it holds the straw in place.
I believe you are mistaken on the hole in the window of an airplane. Airplanes have an inner lining with a plexiglass or lexan window with a hole drilled in it so that moisture between that window and the outside window will not fog the window up. The only vent is the pressure relief valve at the rear pressure bulkhead.
I wondered if anyone was going to catch that.
Touche sir. . . You are correct!
For a few years I actually used pocket-watches & used that pocket. It was just most convenient for work...& for quickly checking the time w/out having to dig out a phone, regardless.
Yup, me too.
Good job, Mike! I write a weekly trivia column for some newspapers ... you've given me some stuff to research!
about number 13, the ridges *were* on coins to prevent shaving. they *are* on coins so you can tell which one you got without needing to be able to see it.
on number four: those flaps are there so you can more easily flatten empty juice boxes, so they take up less space in the bin.
this is why the boxes have those flaps on the bottom too (although some companies run by lunatics need to be special about this.)
You should do a list of 25 things that you personally learned from doing lists
I find empty Tic Tac boxes are very useful. You can put mislaid small items in them, the put the box somewhere safe, until you can deal with that thing, like a button, that needs sewing back on or a loose nail, that needs to go back in the toolbox.
The watch pocket is something I have always called that little pocket on Jeans, high classed men's pants also have them deep in the recesses of the pocket. And yes I am old enough to have used them for a pocket watch.
Hey Mike!!! My daughter and I have been listening for 7-8 months and love many of your vids. Your personality is adorable because your not a presumptuous know-it-all, nor are you a moron reciting facts.
On the ridges on coins: I was told by my friend with vision difficulties (many years ago), that the ridges were made to help the vision impaired to know the “change”.
Hi Mike, I always use the watch pocket to put my lighter in. Saves trouble digging in the main pocket. I wish there was one on each side.
This is the trivia equivalent of the "Good Morning, Lucy" video in 50 First Dates. ... "Sorry about your head. Here's all the things everyone else knows, but you managed to forget."
I knew almost all of these. The screw/nail slot on a tape measure I use all the time. On softer materials like foam you can use a push pin instead of a nail.
Hey, that was great. I knew some but plenty unknowns. Good to know stuff 👍
Entertaining and informative. Thanks!
Our pleasure!
My pillow case doubles as a laundry bag 😅
Good one! Never seen a grocery cart with loops🤔
I knew about most of these but a few I didn't know. The shirt thing, the pantie thing and I think the Toblerone one I forgot about. Oh and the tape measure thing.
If you type the word typewriter on a QWERTY keyboard, you don't leave the top line of letter keys
The window holes are only on the inside pane.
The rear iPhone microphone is for the video camera.
Juice box tabs are most likely just because how they are made.
My backpack has a loop, not a triangular shape, but it's for the same purpose, but I usually just use it to pick my bag when I'm in a hurry.
That little pocket on your jeans is for a pocket watch!
I read the qwerty keyboard was invented to make typing slower on typewriters because otherwise the striking pins would jam up being too close together hitting.
As I was taught the same thing. Many layout was tried and the mechanical typewriters of the day could keep up with the stress of how fast some of the people became with typing. Qwerty was created as the slowest most inefficient style to keep the typewriters from breaking.
Cool as ever buddy !!!!
Little trick for fisher-people and those silica gel packs. Throw them in your tackle box, they help keep the moisture out and rust off the lures.
You guys rock period that is all thanks Mike and List 25❤🌹
I miss the mint toothpicks.
The handle on a hammer is actually meant to be held while you are swinging the hammer. I think that was a pretty clever idea.
As always Mike, a great video. The keys on the QWERTY-keyboard were arranged in that way to ensure you can't type that fast ... so the legs (with the letters) shouldn't get entangled too often. We don't hae those legs anymore, but still have this lousy setup
you did it again, girl!
The raised bumps on the F & J keys of QWERTY keyboard are also there for the visually impaired. Numeric keypads also have a raised bump on the number five so that those of us who are visually impaired can accurately use the keypad.
'Wildly intelligent to place the microphone right near the speakers. Brilliant !
You are a terrific young man. And an interesting young man.
I carried my pocket watch in the 'watch pocket' of my jeans for years.
I think those tiny pockets are there for my income 😬😬😬
Mike the tiny pocket is for your paycheck after taxes 😂
I think I've heard almost all of these, keyboard home keys I learned about in the 1970's when I was in high school.
Gas filler caps on many 60's cars were in the center of the rear of the car. Even behind the tag.
The small pocket on jeans is the perfect size for a Zippo lighter.
#7 - small bumps on "F" and "J" keys - that's called "home row" for those that took typing class way back in High School in the 60's, 70's or 80's. Kind of surprised he didn't actually call it home row, because that is where you need to position your index fingers if you want to be positioned properly on "home row".
I can't believe there are people who don't know what the watch pocket is for. I've seen at least 3 videos recently revealing the shocking news that the little pocket on Levis was put there for a pocket watch.
Also, depending on what side E is facing in your gas gauge is the side of your gas tank
I didn't know tic tac was still around. Never could just eat one or two.
I use my little pocket in my jeans for my chapstick. Lol
When I was a kid the two colors on the eraser were pink and gray, the gray side actually said it was for ink.
Wear bars on tires, clasps on shipping straps.
I keep silica packs around for my medicine cabinet and card collection.
Unpopular opinion: It's probably because the casual way of using these things are more convenient.
Great list! Someone told me the purpose of that little pocket in jeans was for zippo lighters. I can’t wait to educate them. 😄
I meant they CAN be but that's not why they're there in the first place
I heard the purpose of the long neck on beers] bottles was so you could hold them without warming the beer (or cooling your hands).
The small pocket inside the left pocket on Levi jeans is a WATCH pocket.
On UK coins the ridges also have letters on them, often Latin. They vary from coin to coin and tails design and tails design, to help combat fake coins. Unfortunately it doesn't really work. One in ten UK pound coins in circulation are reckoned to be fakes.
wet-suits commonly also come with an extra piece of fabric also.
25.2: The fruit-shaped candies (Runts), one gets from gumball machines are small enough to be dispensed from a Tic Tac container.
Here's something you left out on the Toblerone bar: The end only unzips on two sides so that it remains hinged in place, so you can break the next piece inward without getting chocolate on your fingers; also good for offering a piece. It also seals the box up if you are somehow able to leave any uneaten. The side tabs tuck into the remaining box to close it. There are two of these empty boxes on the desk beside me at the moment, LOL. 7-Eleven has them for $2 apiece (two for $4), and the clerk says I'm the only one he's ever seen buy them.
I’m well over 60 years old and as I remember it when I was a small child I was told it was a watch pocket but wrist watches were everywhere and so it became a change pocket but not cash is going away so I have no idea what it will become next, that is if it doesn’t go away all together. If you’ve ever owned a pair of jeans that doesn’t have that pocket I can tell you it’s weird to not have it.
Silly story about the loop on the back of the shirts. When I (female) was in Jr. High-High School if we saw a guy wearing a shirt like that we would call out "FrootLoop", put our index finger in the loop, and break off one side of it. All the guys ran around with that thing dangling off the back of their shirts.
The indentations, usually round, on gallon containers of milk. If they are popped out, then your milk is no longer good to consume. Although, I have had milk go bad many times and never once did I see the indentations pop out. But, that may be because there usually isn't much left in the container when it has soured. IDK
Great Job Mike and team!!! I liked this video. Learned alot. I like most of your videos though. Lol. Keep up the good work!!! From a real fan of this channel.♥️♥️♥️
Awesome! Thank you!
The reason why there's a hole in the top of every pink cap is to prevent person from accidentally swallowing and choking on it. It's mostly for people that are either nervous or young children.
You're wrong about the reason there's a mic on the back of the iPhone (or all phones, really). It's part of a noise cancelling system, which takes the sound from both mics and mixes them together out of phase, which eliminates anything that is the same going into both mics while leaving behind what differs. Because your voice is going primarily into one mic while the sound of the environment around you are going into both mics this technology greatly reduces background noise. The third mic is the speakerphone mic, a condenser mic different from the close voice mic.
Funny how the jeans pocket is actually too small for a pocketwatch.
The loops on shopping carts existed long before most bags had handles. Paper bags were the norm for a century, and had no handles. Although they are convenient to use for hanging handled bags I doubt that was actually part of the design. More likely it was to avoid sharp ends of metal wire on the upper half of the cart
There's also been a QUINTY keyboard, although I think nobody uses it anymore.
We had a different name for the loops on the backs of shirts.
I want to know where I can get one of those tic tac gun
Love Twinkies ❤
Point of contention. If the loops on cart are for hanging bags on, they will only be useful after you pay. You don't get bags to shop with, only bags to carry out. Just an observation.
5:59 "wait till we look into women's underwear", I don't like that! 😃 -Mike
I used to be a Gusset Girl in an Under wear factory. That little pocket was not always in the panties.
The pocket in women's panties is so the two layers of fabric can be cleaned efficiently. I always joked that it was to hold a vibrating bullet toy. I'm sure some use it as such. (I've researched this exact topic extensively).
This list feels like a rehash of the same list from years ago
I am 60 and am very embarrassed. How many times did I stop to open door and look to see which side the gas tank is on??? 😂😂😂
There's a hidden symbol in the picture of a mountain on the Toblerone that supposed to be a bear.
I never knew the name for the loop. Only time i even thought of it was Jr high when friends would grab it and pull you back with it. We called it a f*g tag then
1:12
Is this the origin for the phrase "out of the loop"? Probably not, but it looks like it could be.
Speaking of grocery carts, can someone please explain to me why the carts out West have all four wheels that turn independently, like a dolly? It's annoying as hell to try and turn a corner. Ours track like a car. Those in Cali and AZ turn sideways and keep going in the direction you are trying to avoid.
No car in UK that I've seen has an arrow
Ive never noticed a hole in the window on an airplane. I'll check next we go flying
Love Toblerone ❤
Mike tries so hard in every single one of his videos so show him some love, folks! We love you, Mike!! ❤
A Vicks inhaler and a lighter (as far as the tiny jean pocket goes). 😀🙃
That tiny pocket is for drugs 😂
No wait....
The shirt loop, Are't you "taken" anyway?
I like this guy good job 👍🏽
Hi Mike 👋 😊❤😊
Hello!
tiny pocket in jeans Such as coins 20$ Airpods
I agree with the comment below.
😎❤️
You might say you're out of the loop
I drive a 2004 camry and i have a fuel arrow on mine.
Did you know you can spell the word typewriter in the Top row of a qwerty typewriter?
Didn't I watch this before?
brilliant, thanks for some useless info. Thats not a bad thing. I hold my zippo in the little pocket on my jeans & I use silica gel in my convertible to stop some condensation.....All the best.....
Some of my outdoor pants have a pair of loops right between the legs at the crotch. My best guess is that they're there to tie the cuff of the legs to do they don't get wet when wadding in shallow water. Can anyone confirm?
Goddamn dude, you’re looking great. I need to get on whatever diet you’re on.
You should do a showcase if the Phillipines army built canada and America cause our buildings are identical and the Phillipines preaches taciam agaisnt people who dont have light skin
Why do israel bathroom doors have a window in the door? I've never seen it anywhere in the world.
I assumed everyone used the watch pocket to put our weed in.
Hardly anyone uses pocket watches anymore but they still have a pocket for them. Do you know what device just about everyone uses nowadays? A cell phone! I have seen some pants and shorts with a cell phone pocket but not many. Why has this tradition stuck around and not replaced with a cell phone pocket in all pants?
I have
😊
You didn't mention that the first typewriter keyboatds used to jam up, the qwerty system reduced the problem
The holes in plane windows are only between the 2 inner layes of glass, not all the way to the outside, if the holes weren't there, pressure would build up between the layers and break them
On the keyboard you had in your hand, there's actually 3 bumps, don't forget the 5 on the numpad
