Made-up, False and Flat-out Wrong Trivia Dominoes II

“Marooned sailors” originally referred to pirates who dyed themselves red in order to terrify their opponents. Someone initially suggested a yellowish color but it never really ochred to them to use it.

The Swiss tried to keep the French out with a cloth scrim, in a mistaken attempt to emulate the grey toile of China.

Grey china can be poisonous to eat off of, due to the grey dye being manufactured from rattlesnake venom.

Rattlesnake Venom was a popular brand of beer in the UK in the 1950s. It didn’t
really contain any rattlesnake venom as there are no rattlesnakes in the UK - they
used Belladonna (deadly nightshade) instead. It was discontinued after more than
8000 people died from drinking it.

It took 8,000 young slaves and one geezer foreman to lift one sandstone block for the Great Pyramid. The slaves lifted when the geezer yelled “NOW!” and released it when he yelled “BALDERDASH”. All of the slaves would leap backwards at the same time to avoid being crushed by the block. It was somewhat effective. The nearby town was named after the foreman by a slightly deaf mayor who heard the word as “Geezah”, and the Great Pyramid, instead of being called “The Great Pyramid of Balderdash”, was given the name it has today.

The pyramids of Egypt were constructed by herds of tame yeti and not by slaves. When the work was done Pharaoh Khafre, according to hieroglyphics, returned all yeti to the Himalayas. However, when was the last time a yeti has been sighted there? Their fate is officially unknown. Some claim they escaped into African jungles. Some say they were entombed in the pyramids.

It’s rumored that there’s a small yeti enclave somewhere in the foothills just outside Blawnox, Pennsylvania, although this has not been documented with any degree of confidence. Further, some locals believe that a few of these yeti are running small arts and crafts shops in the tourist section of Blawnox itself.

This theory does account for the fact that the arts and crafts shops in Blawnox often feature small model pyramids.

Nobody has ever found a good use for the pyramid solid. It can’t be bounced, stacked, rolled, kicked, swatted, accurately thrown, or easily caught. It’s existence has puzzled scientists for thousands of years, and even Einstein pronounced it “goofy and useless”. Tourists to Egypt buy them by the millions, then promptly toss them in the trash before even leaving the hotel, as they’re impossibly to pack. It’s been estimated that the Cairo landfill is 78% souvenir pyramids.

“It Can’t Be Bounced” features guest appearances by numerous musical luminaries. When asked about his own contribution to the album, William Hung said, “I got lost trying to find the studio, and I ended up being forty-five minutes late. The producer was really pissed off.”

When asked if he’d sit in on the “It Can’t Be Bounced” album, Paul McCartney stated “I’d rather listen to Yoko sing for three hours whilst I’m sitting on a cactus.”
