15 Facts That Really Wet Our Whistles
When we read this list of interesting facts, it's probably best to picture us as we were when we were kids, sitting in front of the TV, drinking juice boxes, and eating ice cream, watching a show like Kids Say The Darndest Things or Wild About Animals. We're sitting there on our little orange couch and the show is about to start and there's an advertisement that pops up. It's a commercial for some new product that makes its users appear stupendous. There's a young kid who says something like, “I just bought some new underwear from Stupendous Underwear, and my pants are now so big that I'm going to need a new car.” So imagine you're one of these kids. Imagine that you've never seen the show before and you've never heard of Stupendous Underwear. You've never seen an advertisement for Stupendous Underwear and you don't know what the show is about, but you've just finished eating your ice cream, and now you're settling down for the show to start.
