In Troy (2004), Brad Pitt and Eric Bana did not use stunt doubles for their epic duel. They made a gentleman\'s agreement to pay for every accidental hit. $50 for each light hit, $100 for each hard blow. Pitt ended up paying Bana $750. Bana didn\'t owe Pitt anything

TIL Costco\'s hot dog has remained $1.50 since it was first introduced in 1984. After the company president complained they were losing money on it, CEO Jim Sinegal put his foot down. "If you raise [the price of] the effing hot dog, I will kill you," Sinegal said.

TIL as many as three US Presidents, and also Abraham Lincoln\'s son, may have died as a result of a contaminated water supply to the White House. Until 1850 there was no sewage system and a field of human excrement called "night soil" flowed freely into the water supply.

TIL about the Anderson Electric Car Company that existed from 1907-1939 and made the Detroit Electric - an electric car that could reliably get 80 miles per charge but up to 211 miles.

Shower Thoughts:

Medieval sex must have smelled terrible.

You don\\u2019t need a heater if you have a crappy enough pc

"So long" makes more sense as a greeting than as a farewell.

Turns out, there\\u2019s a bunch of people who want to be told what to think

A microwave oven is an impractical, but effective, metal detector.

It seems weird that \\u201cfire\\u201d made it to the common services, but nothing else

Sometimes an employee\\u2019s most impressive efforts for a company are when they are fixing a mistake they hope their boss never finds out about.

It\'s a good job our subconscious knows exactly the right amount to loosen our asshole, so that we can pass gas in our sleep without shitting ourselves.

For vehicles powered by flamethrowers, hot air balloons are the least metal of all travel options.

It\\u2019s really easy to tell if someone has never lost a game of Russian Roulette
