I already do this sometimes. Didn't know it was a thing. I just thought I was lazy because I would get so sleepy when the sun went down. Then I would get a little nap and be away until 1 or 2am before feeling sleepy enough to fall asleep again.

Bi phasic sleep makes complete sense to me. If I go to bed early, I wake up at 2am and its possibly 4 or 5 before I go to sleep again. Maybe I'm just an old fashioned kinda gal....... :p
Brits used to use the phrase "knock me up" when I was a youngster. It simply was a request to visit as one might also say "ring me up". They used to love to say it around Americans just to watch them snicker.
Biphasic sleep wasn't that odd. Gives you more time to do stuff and encourage lucid dreams. This whole "wake up at 7am and go to bed at 11-12pm" thing is a result of factory shift schedules and later amplified by abundant artificial lighting.
I have this neighbor, he is 84 years old. When i go for a smoke, our balconies are next to each other, he always sits there and tells me "jokes". After every "joke" there is a dead silence, because they are so corny and lame. So he repeats them 2-3 times, in case i didn't "get it". You remind me of him.
Also, when one of my children had colic, a cousin of my then husband told me to buy "paragoric" from the drugstore. I asked the pharmacist for some. He immediately asked me again what did I want. I told him the story and said the cousin told me to ask him for paragoric. He laughed and said that was an old remedy used for teething and colic that was made out of liquid HERON...
Lol, I have to say that number 1 made me laugh! It reminds me of the Stallone/Snipes movie, Demolition Man...and the 3 SEASHELLS - that are NEVER explained! 😆
My granny was born in 1898 and she used to knock the windows of women who worked at 5am cleaning offices. I was born 1955 and I remember her doing it so that must have been in the 60's.
1) Smoking was legally banned on all flights in the USA in 2001. Most airlines allowed smoking well into the late 1990s, first banning it on the shortest flights first, adding longer domestic flights later and finally long haul international flights. Pilots were permitted to smoke well passed the legal bans since it was believed it could be dangerous to their performance. 2) Codeine is still the most common prescription cough medicine.
I remember when you didn't need a prescription for codeine. You did have to sign a log. Then at some point, I guess all the government expense of checking the logs and dealing with the misuse got to be a bit much, and they just made it prescription only.

People today still use rocks to wipe themselves. When I was in the Peace Corps, I found out when you are miles from home and need to go, a rock isn't such a bad idea after all. Especially if you are in a desert.
I knew a town kid who hired on as a corn detasseler on our crew one summer. He needed to poo and went off into a small grove of trees to do his doo. When finished he realized there was no toilet paper (of course) so he grabbed some nearby leaves of a plant and wiped. Hours later he was in the ER with the worst case of poison ivy the doctor had said to his mother, that he had ever seen.
hey, what is wrong with using water to clean up?? we use gallons and gallons just to flush, and none for our hole?? believe me, water is better for clean up than toilet paper.. believe me...
VVindowZ WUT?! THERE R CERTAIN RELIGIONS THAT USE WATER FOR THAT TO STAY CLEAN AND ITS REQUIRED TO BE CLEAN IN ORDER TO PRAY AND PPL DONT USE WATER FOR THAT?!?! YIKES
People in Ancient Europe didn't care about self hygiene and they were using perfumes to cover their bad smell, This is why France became one of the most popular perfume makers nowadays
Promontorium Not so much bathing, as indulging the body in any form, though monasteries had bathing facilities and promoted good hygene. Frankly, I think it's more that almost nobody had access to plumbing of any sort. When taking a bath means hauling out a wooden tub that weighs 15kg or more, heating up pots upon pots of hot water (when many may have owned only one, if that), hauling in even more cold water, then emptying the tub bucket by bucket, it's easy to see why bathing was infrequent. And that's not even getting into the expense, danger, and time-consumption that is the making of home-made soap. (Any task where you have to make and use your own lye is something I'm happy to opt out of.)
promontorium Some "Christian" ideas and preconceptions will always perplex me... I mean, in this case, for example, how can cleaness be sinful?! After all, body hygiene is the physical reflection of the spiritual purity we all aspire to.
It's not 50-60 years since smoking was permitted on planes. Most countries started banning it middle to late 1980's. Here in Norway, the first anti-smoke regulation/law, was introduced July 1st, |986, which for example banned smoking inside theatres, but not in their lobbies.

Little kids have worn dresses in the past. The mother was looking after them. The kids were considered unisex until the age of 4-8, then the boys would go with their father to learn everything you need to know to be a knight. The girls would stay with their mother and learn sewing, and help in the household.
One of the reasons they dressed all their young children the same was that there was a much higher death rate for children. Clothes were expensive. Unisex hand-me-downs were more practical.
Can you imagine pulling shards of pottery or coconut splinters from your sphincter after wiping? I will never complain about cheap toilet paper again! 😝
The postmortem girl standing up wasn't dead, just looked bad. The frames to hold them up couldn't hold up a standing person. Sometimes they used the frames to hold alive people still since it took so long to make a photo
Finally, someone else who knows what they're talking about! Thank you for your comment; it gives me hope that not everyone believes every lie they hear.
TheRealNatNat aka Kyl Shinra you're absolutely right. I smoked on a lot of flights in the 70's and 80's and also smoked when hospitalized...in my room.
My body likes a bi-phasic sleep pattern. If I give in to my body and go to sleep early, I will go to sleep at 8pm and wake again at around midnight to 1am, back up for a couple of hours and then back to sleep until morning. But I also have insomnia, maybe I should give in and just become a bi-phasic sleeper.
I've read that. My sleep often goes bi-phasic for a couple weeks right after DST ends in November. My 2PM nap morphs into a 7PM nap, I wake at 12 or so, and don't go back to bed until around 4 or 5. I hate it.
Hey! I do that too! I figured that I just had insomnia (ok, sometimes I do), but often I will try to go to bed at a halfway decent hour, only to wake at midnight, watch some dribble on RUclips for 2-3 hrs, then go back to sleep again. I don't even fight it anymore. I just roll with it. :D
Suicide Cloud they all did them in one form or another, but you also have things like binding women’s feet to keep them small. Then the arsenic in the white make up that was used, so if it wasn’t one strange fact it was another!
Suicide Cloud did not mention specifically what kind of Asian they are though. Why are you assuming their culture did foot binding, female infanticide and mercury-drinking emperors? Aside from slaving (They had rights and vertical social mobility is possible so its not exactly "slaving") and Piracy, my culture is quite progressive. Women and Third genders hold the same status as men.
David Roddick Biphasic sleep is the practice of sleeping during two periods over 24 hours, so if you nap in the afternoon and again during night, then you are a BP sleeper
A few interesting things here I didn't know. Thanks for that. A suggestion: Be more careful with the placement of your adverbs in the audio narration. The semantic value of "If only you could see my feet" and "If you could only see my feet" are essentially the same. But "People just couldn't go into the water" is quite different in meaning from "People couldn't just go into the water." Your text is fine. I suggest you follow it more carefully.
The one about Isabelle I of Spain is totally wrong. She bathed quite a lot, so much it got her in trouble with her confessors that would tell her off for taking excessive care of herself.
She took too much care of herself and her father confessors(Talavera & Cisneros) would tell her that she shouldn’t do it too much because it would get her in trouble with God. To be a good wife she was supposed to only take care of her hair, and wash 3 times arms and face everyday. But she full on bathed too often aswell and that wasn’t looked up on to be the right thing to do. She was a very clean queen. Too many rumors going around about her great grandaughter that get mixed up and people think it was actually about Isabel I of Castille when it’s not.
Lies... She of bathed twice in her life that's documented fact. The whole Spain was nasty until the advent of the African moors stepped in and taught them the necessity of bathing and brushing ones teeth.
In Demolition Man, Stallone goes to the bathroom. Comes out and says "you're out of toilet paper." The people look at each other and ask "What's toilet paper?" Stallone explains that where the toilet paper is supposed to be there is a shelf with 3 seashells on it." Another character says, "He doesn't know how to use the 3 seashells!" and no one explains how to use them! So its an ongoing thing... How do you use the 3 seashells.
One question though, Who polishes their bum? Seriously people have been trying to figure this one out since the movie came out. Sandra Bullock who played in it was asked before and she couldn't give an answer.
Karrie rose, Post mordem pictures are most definitely real. When my eldest niece lost her third child, the nurse dressed her baby boy and took his pictures . They even took pictures with her and her husband holding him. As well as her in laws , also, took these pictures...... When my eldest niece's daughter lost her son at twenty seven weeks, the nurse dressed her baby boy and took pictures for them . Doesn't matter that some people don't believe these pictures are real. We know that they are wrong......... These pictures, believe it or not are closure for some people They are the only pictures that these parents will ever have of their beautiful Angels.......

#9 Choppins, remind me of the wooden sandals I wore in Okinawa in the early 70s. They were a wooden board about a quarter to half inch thick, with two wooden blocks p, about inch and a half square, running side to side. One near the front and the other near the back. The fastener was similar to a flip flop, a piece of strong fabric through your big toe and index toe. You kind of rocked while you walked and there was a definite wooden sound as you walked. They took a little getting used to, but most of the populace, especially the working class wore them. I think so the were called " Geta's" not sure if the spelling and I'm not sure if they were indigineous to Okinawa. This was before the became a Prefecture of Japan. That happened 5 May 72
I'm Dutch and speak two languages fluent. (Dutch and English) I'm currently learning German specifically because it's easy. (Thanks to Dutch being similar) And I can tell you that it's easy once you get the hang of it. Just remember that it's very different from English and thus you should remember some key words. You may also want to know that what he said was basic German. He just said it quickly.
#8 this is called the four humours, blood (blood letting), yellow bile (purging), black bile (use laxatives) and phlegm (hot room), *the parts in brackets are to show how they cured/ balanced the four humours* . If you humours were out of balance you would be sick.
I do that biphasic sleep thing. It's not by choice, it has become my natural sleep pattern. As I grew older I started to wake up 3 to 4 hours after I went to bed. I used to fight it and toss and turn trying to get back to sleep. Then I just started to get up and read, watch a movie, clean, or whatever. Then I could return to sleep for a few hours later. That's why I am on here at 4:31 am.
I wonder what future generations will think was weird about the beginning of the 21st century. I have a feeling the gender confusion will top the list.
@@davidnec571 Its not approached in a scientific approach. We literally just changed the defintiin of our understanding of men and women to fit a bizarre viewpoint
@@davidnec571 Its not that serious for me personally. I just find it bizarre. If anyone has a problem with the gender dynamic that is your own personal issue.
Religious problems might top the list of weird things still happening in the 21st century. Who the heck expected that people would still be religious by the start of the 2000s ?
Basic_Assumption did you know that literally every human alive today comes from ancestors that practiced cannibalism? There used to be a virus people would get from eating another humans brain, but over time we adapted an immunity to it that all humans have today.
Riot Shield I am American, I was just educated by very fastidious people who based their successes as teachers on my success as a student. People like that are hard to find in any country, I am just lucky they could impact my life.
I'd already heard of first and second sleep, and was under the impression that before being forced by present-day convention into a single block of 8 hours that it was a common sleep pattern. Also had heard of funerary photography, the lack of hygiene in medieval Europe, chopines, blood-letting (credited with killing George Washington), and I lived through era of smoking on airplanes (ick). Radioactive beauty products, dresses for boys, bathing huts and rocks for...uh...those were news. Here's one more fun fact: Pink used to be the color for little boys, since it was related to red which was thought to be a bold, masculine color. Pale blue, symbolizing purity, was for little girls.

I was born in '78, and I remember grocery shopping, each aisle had an ashtray... EVERYBODY smoked.
I remember when smoking was allowed on airplanes, and when you bought your ticket they would ask, "Smoking or non-smoking?" What's the difference? You're trapped in a big metal tube with a bunch of smokers...every seat is "smoking."
They went through a phase where smokers sat in the back, and there were often a couple empty rows in between.
I seem to remember people smoking on planes right up to the 90s. Am I wrong? Maybe I'm thinking of restaurants.
I know back in the late 80's you could be a patient in the hospital and be able to still smoke in ur room.
Yes, even in your hospital room! It wasn't that long ago.
you are correct, smoking was legally banned on all flights in 2001. most airlines banned it throughout the previous decade, with first ever ban in 87 i think. Fun fact, it was only banned on short haul flights, then longer domestic flights were added and finally long haul international flights were last. Also, pilots were allowed to smoke well passed the bans because airlines were worried it would affect their concentration and ability to fly.
I last smoked on a flight in 93.

Little kids have worn dresses in the past. The mother was looking after them. The kids were considered unisex until the age of 4-8, then the boys would go with their father to learn everything you need to know to be a knight. The girls would stay with their mother and learn sewing, and help in the household.
Anaïs Schutz Great explanation 👍👍
Heck, my brother and I used to swipe my mom's dresses from the laundry basket put them on and play tea party. (None of us 4 boys ever married btw).
Not everybody was a knight
What dads is..even back then and wearing dresses as children..they still grew up to be 10x the men the current generations men are.
One of the reasons they dressed all their young children the same was that there was a much higher death rate for children. Clothes were expensive. Unisex hand-me-downs were more practical.
Can you imagine pulling shards of pottery or coconut splinters from your sphincter after wiping? I will never complain about cheap toilet paper again! 😝
How on earth do you fold a shard in half? On wipe is never enough. Especially after pasta.
Lolly Pop ,muslim s use smooth stones til this day at least the othodox ones
Well, probably better for the environment. Reusable and no trees 🌳 wasted
ouch
Joe Kaye am crying
Very interesting video. Thanks.
The information about smoking in the planes in Iran is inaccurate!
Smoking is prohibited in all Iranian airlines.
Allen K
YES AND NOW PPL HAVE THE WRONG IDEA!!!!
yea. stick that in a pipe and smoke it Bright Side
Allen K who cares
The postmortem girl standing up wasn't dead, just looked bad. The frames to hold them up couldn't hold up a standing person. Sometimes they used the frames to hold alive people still since it took so long to make a photo
Finally, someone else who knows what they're talking about! Thank you for your comment; it gives me hope that not everyone believes every lie they hear.
Thank you!
Christie Bernas you clearly have no clue of what you're talking about
Chase Viking why? its common knowledge that the photo of the girl standing isnt of a dead girl.
how do you know?

wow, I had never heard of bathing machines. Crazy
You could smoke in planes up to the late seventies/early Eighties :) that's not 60 years ago !
That's right. Smoking bans started in1988
True, but what he said was that 50 or 60 years ago people didn't see smoking as a bad habit.
I started smoking in 1987 or 88 and I smoked on many an airplane in many countries for many years before it was banned and I eventually quit.
TheRealNatNat aka Kyl Shinra you're absolutely right. I smoked on a lot of flights in the 70's and 80's and also smoked when hospitalized...in my room.
TheRealNatNat aka Kyl Shinra you are sick
The radiation thing... that disturbs me the most in this
I had a really good giggle at these jokes! Great video Sir!! Keep 'em coming :)
Pfft, who uses toilet paper anyways? #HANDSQUAD
PowahSlap Entertainmint lol😂😂😂
PowahSlap Entertainmint Yall ever heard of water #watersquad
You gross
PowahSlap Entertainmint I dont use toilet paper
Puja Sen um, no
My body likes a bi-phasic sleep pattern. If I give in to my body and go to sleep early, I will go to sleep at 8pm and wake again at around midnight to 1am, back up for a couple of hours and then back to sleep until morning. But I also have insomnia, maybe I should give in and just become a bi-phasic sleeper.
StephieAck same here.
I've read that. My sleep often goes bi-phasic for a couple weeks right after DST ends in November. My 2PM nap morphs into a 7PM nap, I wake at 12 or so, and don't go back to bed until around 4 or 5. I hate it.
Hey! I do that too!
I figured that I just had insomnia (ok, sometimes I do), but often I will try to go to bed at a halfway decent hour, only to wake at midnight, watch some dribble on RUclips for 2-3 hrs, then go back to sleep again.
I don't even fight it anymore. I just roll with it. :D
Great video...
I have one question... What is the name of the music?
Where can i find it?
I'm Asian so my ancestors didn't do these
Suicide Cloud they all did them in one form or another, but you also have things like binding women’s feet to keep them small. Then the arsenic in the white make up that was used, so if it wasn’t one strange fact it was another!
and emperors drink mercury for immortality.
Killing female infants sure was popular though
allie roberts W
Suicide Cloud did not mention specifically what kind of Asian they are though. Why are you assuming their culture did foot binding, female infanticide and mercury-drinking emperors?
Aside from slaving (They had rights and vertical social mobility is possible so its not exactly "slaving") and Piracy, my culture is quite progressive.
Women and Third genders hold the same status as men.
he doesn't have to make lame little jokes after EVERY fact
Claire Allen oh yes he does
Many people today are spoiled and will make jokes about how hard it was for those before us, in order to give us the life today
Yee
i agree. the lame humor is childesh at best. sometimes i feel like im watching a teen channel
He is out of control
Also the post-mortem pictures are so cool and also very artful!
Corn cobs are the best alternative to toilet paper because they have three functions: cleaning, scratching and combing.
I almost vomitted at your comment 😷
Big T Daddy
But you're profile picture is even more vomiting 😌😷😷
Rosa Maria Share soooooo funny
still used today in rural parts of 3rd world countries
Combing?! T.F.?!
in the US fear of marijuana only started in 1900. before which marijuana was in many medicinal products and was sold openly in public pharmacies.
Rip Mowt b
Including Sears
George Ybarra yep. The government even encouraged the average citizen to grow it
That is why things change. It is a dangerous drug. It is what they call a gateway drug.
a perfect product of the negative propaganda.
@ 6:14 Don't forget people used to smoke in hospitals... I remember see people when I was 3 -5 yrs old ....
Really?
I liked the music
I'm a multiphasic sleeper, i need a knocker-upper
Is a person considered a "biphasic sleeper" if they have a nap every afternoon? If so, count me in!
David Roddick Biphasic sleep is the practice of sleeping during two periods over 24 hours, so if you nap in the afternoon and again during night, then you are a BP sleeper
A few interesting things here I didn't know. Thanks for that.
A suggestion: Be more careful with the placement of your adverbs in the audio narration.
The semantic value of "If only you could see my feet" and "If you could only see my feet" are essentially the same. But "People just couldn't go into the water" is quite different in meaning from "People couldn't just go into the water."
Your text is fine. I suggest you follow it more carefully.
The one about Isabelle I of Spain is totally wrong. She bathed quite a lot, so much it got her in trouble with her confessors that would tell her off for taking excessive care of herself.
Yaiza Sab WTH do you mean "her confessors"
She took too much care of herself and her father confessors(Talavera & Cisneros) would tell her that she shouldn’t do it too much because it would get her in trouble with God. To be a good wife she was supposed to only take care of her hair, and wash 3 times arms and face everyday. But she full on bathed too often aswell and that wasn’t looked up on to be the right thing to do. She was a very clean queen. Too many rumors going around about her great grandaughter that get mixed up and people think it was actually about Isabel I of Castille when it’s not.
Lies... She of bathed twice in her life that's documented fact. The whole Spain was nasty until the advent of the African moors stepped in and taught them the necessity of bathing and brushing ones teeth.
Yaiza Sab which is absolute dribble, no text says that about women.
The whole Spain before the advent the African moors were a Roman province, learn a little about them.
we have drummer boys that wake people up in the morning especially in Ramadan. Human alarms.
Mr. Q - iLoveQatar.net I like to sleep in sometimes it would not suit me at all..
Mr. Q - iLoveQatar.net not now that was long ago when there was no invention of alarm clocks

Jimin wants Suga Kookie with no jams OMG me too😂
I found army😂😂

People still use water and cloth to clean themselves after using the toilet, and it's actually the most hygienic way to get the job done.
#3 Smoking IS banned on flights in Iran!
Unless it is in the form of a bomb.
the bathing machine was pretty smart actually
Hip Ngan we still have them , there called showers 😂
They were really for the rich, poor people were far less shy and would just swim anyway if they had the time and the opportunity.
Who doesn't know how to use the 3 seashells?
You've never seen Demolition Man?
In Demolition Man, Stallone goes to the bathroom. Comes out and says "you're out of toilet paper." The people look at each other and ask "What's toilet paper?" Stallone explains that where the toilet paper is supposed to be there is a shelf with 3 seashells on it." Another character says, "He doesn't know how to use the 3 seashells!" and no one explains how to use them! So its an ongoing thing... How do you use the 3 seashells.
One question though, Who polishes their bum? Seriously people have been trying to figure this one out since the movie came out. Sandra Bullock who played in it was asked before and she couldn't give an answer.
Ken Hudson could also use a starfish?
Melody Paige *@#$,$#@*,&$#@", so much for the 3 seashells
I would think a 'knocker-upper' would be slang for a 'playa'.
Well, they aren't MY ancestors because I'm Asian... Soooooo
Aruvin_
THEY DONT DARE TO MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT ASIANS!!! I'm Asian too btw❤️❤️
Aruvin_ same
earaza I know I AM an amazing hero.
Ya know, lol.
I'm Asian From Philippines
I once was a knocker upper, and that led to a child support order from the state
Karrie rose,
Post mordem pictures are most definitely real.
When my eldest niece lost her third child,
the nurse dressed her baby boy and took his pictures .
They even took pictures with her and her husband holding him.
As well as her in laws , also, took these pictures......
When my eldest niece's daughter lost her son at twenty seven weeks, the nurse dressed her baby boy and took pictures for them .
Doesn't matter that some people don't believe these pictures are real.
We know that they are wrong.........
These pictures, believe it or not
are closure for some people
They are the only pictures that these parents will ever have of their beautiful Angels.......
How about using "Seashells" like Sylvester Stalone 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jessys Cooking: the three seashells system...how, exactly, are they used?
Nobody knows.
Smith to Smith: ikr?
Jessys Cooking
I've never really understood the 3 seashells system.... I just imagine those sharp, scalloped edges and think, no...no thank you.!!!
Water is the only best way to wash off poop
Omar Als
HOW COULD PPL NOT USE WATER?!?! HOW UNCLEAN EW
Actually iran banned smoking in flights
why use toilet paper if you can just use water?
Febby Arifin
IKR?! HOW UNCLEAN
Jude K your litereally replying to all the comments first, chill, second because females have to use it, you cant dry yourself with water. Water cant remove everything and its good to have a combination of both.
You can't dry yourself with water. So I guess you don't take showers?
Why don't you simply use a towel?
Martinz Water typically....dries. Novel concept, huh?
Those are Bidets
Search it up 😁
How about skidding around on the carpet. My dog dose it!!!
Does
#9 Choppins, remind me of the wooden sandals I wore in Okinawa in the early 70s. They were a wooden board about a quarter to half inch thick, with two wooden blocks p, about inch and a half square, running side to side. One near the front and the other near the back. The fastener was similar to a flip flop, a piece of strong fabric through your big toe and index toe. You kind of rocked while you walked and there was a definite wooden sound as you walked. They took a little getting used to, but most of the populace, especially the working class wore them. I think so the were called " Geta's" not sure if the spelling and I'm not sure if they were indigineous to Okinawa. This was before the became a Prefecture of Japan. That happened 5 May 72
Uhh.....When did our Host in did video speak German?Now how did he even speak German thats stuff is hard....
Jesus Terrazas Do you even English?
English please?
I'm Dutch and speak two languages fluent. (Dutch and English)
I'm currently learning German specifically because it's easy. (Thanks to Dutch being similar)
And I can tell you that it's easy once you get the hang of it.
Just remember that it's very different from English and thus you should remember some key words.
You may also want to know that what he said was basic German.
He just said it quickly.
Jesus Terrazas I'm English born and have learnt fluent German and it's really not that hard :)
+Natewatl
There is quite some overlap indeed but I didn't notice that much overlap.
And I missed that one.
Well, in the future we use 3 seashells as toilet paper!
TheXalos X LOL! I was actually thinking about "Demolition Man" when he mentioned the stones!!!
TheXalos X or you can just simply use profanities in the public and then can use the papers of fine tickets to wipe
I love the comments from the narrator!
#8 this is called the four humours, blood (blood letting), yellow bile (purging), black bile (use laxatives) and phlegm (hot room), *the parts in brackets are to show how they cured/ balanced the four humours* . If you humours were out of balance you would be sick.
I am from Iran and smoking on planes in Iran has NEVER been allowed!
This made me distrust the validity of your contents.
Before Lady Gaga's crazy heels, there were CHOPINES 😂
I come from Greece but I have never heard that fact
Manolis Karachalios
Same here!
Well, it's not like they're going to teach you about pooping methods in a class about the Hellenistic period. lol
using aa corcob is hellish

What seems uncommon in our ages is actually more than common in past ages.
I do that biphasic sleep thing. It's not by choice, it has become my natural sleep pattern. As I grew older I started to wake up 3 to 4 hours after I went to bed. I used to fight it and toss and turn trying to get back to sleep. Then I just started to get up and read, watch a movie, clean, or whatever. Then I could return to sleep for a few hours later. That's why I am on here at 4:31 am.
I wonder what future generations will think was weird about the beginning of the 21st century. I have a feeling the gender confusion will top the list.
@@davidnec571 Its not approached in a scientific approach. We literally just changed the defintiin of our understanding of men and women to fit a bizarre viewpoint
@@davidnec571 Its not that serious for me personally. I just find it bizarre. If anyone has a problem with the gender dynamic that is your own personal issue.
@Marilyn Willett ...Only ignorant and uneducated conservatives don't understand basic science.
Religious problems might top the list of weird things still happening in the 21st century. Who the heck expected that people would still be religious by the start of the 2000s ?
How about plastic surgeries? It's too common nowadays that you get confused what she looks like when someone's lips is thin or thick.
I remember smoking on a plane trip during the mid 90's.
This is really great
Those r not my ancestors but yours hahahahhaahha
how do you know?
Why does your profile look like you watch Asian drama?
Basic_Assumption stop trolling, you Russian provacatuer! We Americans live each other. 🤣😂🤣
*love
Basic_Assumption did you know that literally every human alive today comes from ancestors that practiced cannibalism? There used to be a virus people would get from eating another humans brain, but over time we adapted an immunity to it that all humans have today.
His German is actually pretty good
I was most impressed by the fact that you led with the thumbnail, rather than it being clickbait. ;-D
Who just sharded?
You use a lot of "us" and "we." But in reality, it's just you. I love your quirky videos. Take pride in being alone!
Anna T. Us and we is a collective term. Your probably American, pleased to help.
Riot Shield "You're" as in "you're welcome", but hey, no nation has perfect grammar skills.
kp1officer lol thanks. I'm not American either
Riot Shield I am American, I was just educated by very fastidious people who based their successes as teachers on my success as a student. People like that are hard to find in any country, I am just lucky they could impact my life.
I'd already heard of first and second sleep, and was under the impression that before being forced by present-day convention into a single block of 8 hours that it was a common sleep pattern. Also had heard of funerary photography, the lack of hygiene in medieval Europe, chopines, blood-letting (credited with killing George Washington), and I lived through era of smoking on airplanes (ick). Radioactive beauty products, dresses for boys, bathing huts and rocks for...uh...those were news. Here's one more fun fact: Pink used to be the color for little boys, since it was related to red which was thought to be a bold, masculine color. Pale blue, symbolizing purity, was for little girls.
FYI
Toilet papers is not for all. We still use water instead in 2019
Nothing suprised me, even today us humans have stupidity and make mistakes, yet we still have not really learned much .
Shaiyã Roiyaritî tell me about it. Your grammar dropped my intelligence down.
e-cigs
This makes my jaw dropped from my skull. Seriously, our ancestors were so SAVAGE at using things!
But bloodletting is known for improving the immune system.
video should be called 12 times I ended my bit of info with a joke and none of them land
I love my shower
i love this channel, specially the side jokes, they're so corny ahahah
never eating corn again
