I got the following today from my glurge network. I usually receive the same emails over and over but I didn't recognize this one. Also, I searched on the forums and the main site and while some are old (for example, the Einstein bee quote) most are new.

Seriously, though, this is remarkably condescending. Plenty of people, even those who have email, don't have "all [they] need." Also, whoever wrote this needs some sense slapped into them, so clearly they don't have all they need, either. |

I am guessing that no. 16 means that the brain uses 10 watts of power.

There are 6 people who look like me? Yeah, I guess. One of them was Ulrike Meinhof.
So now it's down to five. |

HCl will not dissolve a penny - it does very little to copper. If you make a nick in the penny so that you get through to the zinc underneath, you can create a hollow penny. It will dissolve the zinc (which is most of the penny) and leave the copper behind. Pretty cool trick, actually.

Gonna have fun updating these!
Did You Know ? 1. Your shoes are the first thing people subconsciously notice about you. Wear nice shoes. Unless you're a woman. Then it's your boobs. 2. If you sit for more than 11 hours a day, there's a 50% chance you'll die within the next 3 years. However, Thanos isn't scheduled to die until 2019. 3. There are at least 6 people in the world who look exactly like you. There's a 9% chance that you'll meet one of them in your lifetime. Much higher if you're Tatiana Maslany. 5. A person’s height is determined by their father, and their weight is determined by their mother. And their width is determined by McDonald's. 6. If a part of your body "falls asleep", You can almost always "wake it up" by shaking your head. Or doing "air quotes." 7. There are three things the human brain cannot resist noticing, food, attractive people and danger. Also, car accidents. And boobs! 8. Right-handed people tend to chew food on their right side and left handed people chew with their mouths open, the disgusting freaks. 9. Putting dry tea bags in gym bags or smelly shoes will absorb the unpleasant odor. Your shorts will smell like an Englishman's farts. 10. According to Albert Einstein, if honey bees were to disappear from earth, humans would be dead within 4 years. And that's how Einstein wrote the treatment to Jerry Seinfeld's "Bee Movie." 11. There are so many kinds of apples, that if you ate a new one everyday, it would take over 20 years to try them all. So get to work! 12. You can survive without eating for weeks, but you will only live 11 days without sleeping. But you'll be amazed at how much you get done in those 11 days 13. People who laugh a lot are healthier than those who don’t. The reason for Carrot Top's continued existence. 14. Laziness and inactivity kills just as many people as smoking. Those are the names of my guns. 15. A human brain has a capacity to store 5 times as much information as Wikipedia. Too be fair, Wikipedia doesn't contain all that much "information." 16. Our brain uses the same amount of power as a 10-watt light bulb!! So, technically, we're all dim bulbs! 18. The Ovum egg is the largest cell and the sperm is the smallest cell !! Which is why every sperm is sacred. 19. Stomach acid (conc. HCL) is strong enough to dissolve razor blades!! So if they didn't shred your throat, no need to worry about those swallowed razor blades! 20. Take a 10-30 minute walk every day & while you walk, SMILE. It is the ultimate antidepressant. Also, Lexapro. 21. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. In other words, STFU! 22. When you wake up in the morning, pray to ask God's guidance for your purpose, today. Or Chuthulu. Whichever. 25. Try to make at least three people smile each day. Farts and racist jokes work well. 26. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Plus, energy vampires can only be killed by a Zune through the heart. 29. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Forgive them for everything. Even the your killer. 30. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does. Seriously. They all hate you. 33. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. They might not even have Steve Perry as their lead singer. 34. No one is in charge of your happiness except you. And the bank. 35. Frame every so-called disaster with these words: 'In five years, will this matter?' I mean, who needs TWO legs? 38. Time heals everything. Except herpes. 39. However good or bad a situation is, it will change. Remember that especially during the good times! 40. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch. You know, except for that thing called health insurance 41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. You greedy pig. 42. Each night before you go to bed, pray to God and be thankful for what you'll accomplish, today. And ask him why that extra comma is there. 43. Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed. I remember that dress. Oh what a mess. I must confess. Now: Forward this to your friends to help them lead a happier and healthier life, too! They'll hate you for it! |

29. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Forgive them for everything.
Or maybe it's too short to let them think that what they did was okay. God, I hate stuff like that. Maybe I'm just a bitter old person who's going to die when she's 40, but this sounds like a bunch of garbage to me. |

Forgiving someone doesn't mean completely letting them off the hook and letting them get away with everything.
Plus I've found that forgiveness is something that takes place in its own time. If you've been wronged in some way, you have every right to feel hurt, bitter, and angry. I've found rather than denying those feelings, it works best to plumb the depths of them, wallow in them until you've reach the deepest part of it all. Then you can start moving towards a better place regarding those feelings. Even still there will be times in which it'll still hurt, kind of like how people who've lost a limb sometimes experience Phantom Limb Pain from time to time. |

Forgiveness bleh.
You should only forgive someone if they feel genuine remorse for their actions and try to make up for them. I sure as heck will not be forgiving my ex for the abuse they dished out on me when we were together. |
