At no point in my HS history class did our teacher mention that she was alive and living a few hours away from us.
To be fair, I’d say teaching you guys should be proof enough of her non-corpse status that she didn’t have to tell you outright 🤷
The Doritos Locos taco at Taco Bell has been around longer than the Confederate States of America ever was.
Buuut, the Confederacy lasted twice as long as Pepsi Crystal.
From 1843 to 1865, Abraham Lincoln could have sent a fax to a samurai.
Did Japan have any fax lines though? Unless you’re talking about a samurai that left Japan
He was visiting the US
Edit: also Lincoln would have had to traveled to Paris or Lyon the last year of his life to send a pentelegraph (early fax machine) and said samurai would need to be in the other city to receive it. Not impossible technically, but Lincoln only left the US very briefly at Niagea Falls, never traveled to Europe. So it’s possible, but unlikely.
Cleopatra lived closer to the moon landing than the construction of the great pyramids in Egypt.
And the tyrannosaurus rex lived closer to said moon landing than to time the stegosaurus existed too.
Really that’s interesting
Jurassic Park was one lie after another.
Your title got me too.
I’ve always found it interesting how a black and white photo can distort our perception of when something happened.
Was researching million man March for a presentation. Some of the first pictures were in bnw even though it happened in the 90s.
My conspiracy side says it’s deliberate. 🤷♂️
Black and white film remained popular for decades after color film because it had different properties and could be easier to work with. Some photographers also preferred the aesthetic. Before digital photography became as good as film, B&W continued to be used in professional photography.
If you were born in 1976 or earlier, your birthday is closer to the production of the Ford Model T than it is to today. Have a nice day :)
I’d kick your arse if my knees weren’t fucked
I’d help you except for my back
I’d help you but I’m in the middle of fucking that guy’s knees
