    interesting post, shakla u found it while seraching the word serendipitous (in the accidental inventions questions)

    the most common birthday one is hilarious (at least to me :P)

    btw the last link, the superman underwear one, takes me to another question “Is it true there used to be cocaine in Coca-Cola?”
