Weird Facts: Animals

Lots of people hate jellyfish. They're weird, maybe ugly, and most likely mean creatures armed with electrical tentacles that can pack quite a shock. Well, maybe you'll want to know your arch-nemesis' greatest weakness, the sun.

Yes, turns out jellyfish don't only die if they're exposed to sun out of the water, but they EVAPORATE. Jellyfish are about 98% water, so if one washes up the shore, they'll likely cease to exist in about an hour. Did you now that? Waddaya think? Let us know in the comments!

Video Game Logic

-In Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, 1 sniper bullet can kill 5 people at the same time, but you need 2 to break a window.

-An elite soldier run for 15 seconds , a fat plumber, Mario (no offense, just pointing out the silliness of the fact) can run and jump all his life without tiring.

-In Pokémon , Pidgey can fly all over the place, (even with people on top of them while they're fainted, asleep, or paralyzed) but Charizard can't learn fly, even though they have massive wings.

Weird Facts: Strange/Creepy

Anatidaephobia is the pervasive, irrational fear that, somewhere in the world, a duck is watching you. The person believes that no matter where they are or what they are doing, a duck is watching them.

I'm Watching you...

Imagine you are in your bathroom when you suddenly turn around and see a duck staring at you without blinking... creepy... *shivers*. Comment if you feel like it.

Weird Facts: Traveling

Did you know? If you plan to travel to Israel, in addition to presenting your official documents, you may need to give permission to the authorities to check your email.

This is because Israel's attorney general said  that the Shin Bet, the internal security force, can inspect tourist's emails, but only in cases where it is observed "significant signs of suspicion", according to them. Israel says the practice is another way to prevent terrorism. What do you think of this? Were you planning on going to Israel? Do you think this was  a smart move?

Sleeping Dogs Review

Sleeping Dogs review:

Sleeping Dogs ia an open world action-adventure video game developed by United Front Games in conjunction with Square Enix London Studios and published by Square Enix, released on August 14, 2012, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.

The game is based on a character called Wei Shen, a police and criminal agent that is living in China.

I played this game and found out it was awesome. You've got some weapons, but fisting a guy in the gut is so fun that you even forget you can just shoot  him with a gun.

The Good Stuff:

-Interactive environments during fights, nothing more rewarding than slamming a guy's head into a car window.

- You can participate in high-speed-everything-goes races, and then store your beat-up car in your garage only to watch your car magically be restored by the next time you open it. It's a strange yet wonderful phenomenom.

- You get your own house. You know, a place to sleep and the like.

-Karaoke, urban and police fights, furniture... hey what more could you ask  for?

The Bad Stuff:

-No multiplayer mode, promoting antisocial behaviors.

-No car customization. You're stuck with the car you're given.

-Weird and unatural driving. Sorta gives a synthetic or robotic feel.

-Small repertoire of weapons, you'll be stuck using the same guns over and over.

 -No airborne vehicles (helicopters, airplanes,etc.)

Conclusion: 

Sleeping Dogs is a really cool game based on Kung fu and  other martial arts. Despite it's defects, its a great game and  definitevely worth buying if you are into GTA or other similar games.

Cool Fact : This was the 
beta cover. The game was
originally meant to be called
True Crime, but the name
was later dropped for
uknown reasons.   

 

Score:

8.5 out of 10
Great
