The "Did you know...?" Game

[Mister Grimm]

Hahaha, indeed I do.


Did you know: When it comes to studying, cramming pushes information into short-term memory rather than long-term memory, which is where information should be stored for more successful retention?

[Adammair]

Ummm, I used to know that, but I forgot.

I know I know but I had to say something about this!  That method (cramming) is used for quick reguretration- and the only time I ever used it succesfully (as you implied correctly is difficult) was literally ON THE WAY to the class that I had the test in.  This method works when learning certain era's of history or math formulas you will NEVER use again! *getting off the soapbox now and Thanks! That was an awesome 'Did you know!'



I did not know that!


Did you know that pigs roll in mud because they can not sweat through their skin and it keeps them cool?

Did you know that giraffes have seven bones in their neck, same number as humans.

[Anesa]

I think I once read that somewhere.... 


..that the average person presses the snooze button on their alarm clock at least three times each morning?

[Jalynn6]

Did you know that giraffes have seven bones in their neck, same number as humans.

So does their neck include the same basic span as ours? from skull to shoulder blades? or what? I am going to have to look that up! It is one of those things I want to see before I believe! It seems so impossible, doesn't it?  -looked it up and its true! They are just.. longer? that was an interesting read! THanks!

I did not know that but,
I believe that people hit the snooze button at least three times. I would like to meet the person who hits it five times to make up for my one time!

Did you know that... teenagers will get used to the same alarm and need to change it periodically for it to continue to wake them up!

[Anesa]

Nope, I did not know this.

[Adammair]

I didn't know this.
