facts verse presents eight things you
did not know to use for number one lines
on a blade if you're using a box cutter
or a utility knife you've likely noticed
the horizontal lines that go up the
blade they're not just there for
decoration they actually have a purpose
when your blade starts to wear down you
can break the blade at the line to have
a fresh sharp blade whatever you need it
if you've been throwing away your blade
each time it starts to wear down you're
wasting money using the lines to break
off the worn down razor can be a money
saver number two disc in cover a plastic
bottle if you've ever looked under the
cap of a soda bottle you may have
noticed the clear plastic disc many
people think that this helps close the
bottle properly well not exactly the
plastic disc is there to keep the soda
from going flat
it holds all of the gases inside of the
bottle keeping it carbonated if you were
to remove this disc your soda would get
flat within a day number three colored
markings on toothpaste many people
believe that the colored markings on a
toothpaste tube are there to tell the
consumer how much chemicals are included
in the toothpaste the colors are
typically green black and red these
colored squares are actually not for the
consumer at all they are color marks and
eye marks they're used in the
manufacturing process the colors
indicate whether the packet can be
folded or cut as they move quickly
through the machine before the product
moves at high speeds through the machine
these markings can be read with laser
beams it's not something that is meant
to help you choose the best toothpaste
if you want to choose something more
natural you'd need to read the
ingredients on the box number four third
prong on a plug before we go into detail
a wall socket is comprised of two
elements a plug and a power outlet they
connect with each other to establish a
connection that allows the electric
current to flow the plug is a piece of
insulating material which rods or pins
protrude from its function is to
establish an electric connection when it
touches the current and it could
used safely by everyone the two metallic
rods or pins function on the plug is
that it allows the current to flow from
one side to the other that's right one
metal prong or rod feeds the energy to
the apparatus where the other metal rod
or prong returns the energy that isn't
used this creates a closed circuit that
allows the energy to flow so what's that
third prong for well this rod which is
usually round is the earth connection
it's very important since it acts as a
safety mechanism and can even save your
life this is because in the case of an
electric problem the earth prong directs
the electrical energy to a safe place so
that the apparatus does not overload in
this way the apparatus won't catch fire
and more importantly the user doesn't
get electrocuted
number five holes in Converse if you've
ever seen a pair of Converse All Star
sneakers he likely wondered why there
are two holes for the laces on the side
of the sneakers the main reason for
these holes is for ventilation the other
purpose for these holes is to give you a
snugger fit these sneakers were
originally made as basketball shoes the
players could loop their laces through
those extra holes if they needed
additional support number six quilted
toilet paper toilet paper also known as
bog roll lavatory paper toilet roll
toilet tissue and loo roll is a type of
paper that we use to clean our bums
after going to the toilet some brands of
toilet paper can be perfumed and others
not normally they come packed in rolls
but you can also find them in packs or
boxes toilet paper is often designed to
break up when it makes contact with
water
however distinct types of toilet paper
still have something common even if they
are different prices shapes colors and
sizes they're all quilted although many
want the reason for this design to be
simply aesthetic as quilted tissue up
and as pictures of flowers and other
decorations it's not in fact toilet
paper is quilted because this helps to
grip our excrement without this extra
texture tissue paper would only stick to
us and not
cleanness number seven arms of glasses
depending on the country there are
several names for glasses such as
spectacles specs eyeglasses and as we
all know glasses are an instrument that
helps us to see better the glasses are
made up of the following parts a pair of
glasses which are held in position by
two arms or are supported on the nose
thanks to the bridge on the glasses and
two rods that are also known as arms or
temples but some glasses have strange
temples let's travel back in time let's
find out why in the past people had
discovered that they could see better
with glasses especially those who had
vision problems however they came across
one difficulty yes there were several
ways to put on these glasses but they
weren't practical for example one way to
use glasses was to hold them with your
hands like a magnifying glass this is
the reason why spectacles were created
however there was another problem with
these which was that they kept on
slipping off
so after this various ideas were
proposed such as pressing glasses to the
nose but these ideas turned out to be
uncomfortable and impractical for those
who wore the glasses this is because
eyeglasses would always fall off and
they would end up breaking as they were
completely made of glass back then
finally people realized that the best
way to keep eyeglasses held up was by
creating arms or a temple which were
round at the end as they were molded
into the shape of the years this is how
these temples have evolved number-8 edge
of a coin first of all coins are pieces
of resistant material which have the
same composition and weight they're
normally made out of metal are also
normally shaped like a disc had the
faces of authority figures on them and
they are legal tender the first official
coins used for trade were found in Libya
or Turkey between 680 and 560 BC
furthermore coins have several parts
such as obverse and reverse design
amongst these parts is the edge of the
coin which is always engraved in a
specific shape the edge of a coin was
very important in the past since people
could tell if a coin was real or fake
only by touching it you have to remember
that during that period coin
were made of precious metals such as
gold and silver this is why many thieves
scratched their edges to devalue the
currency and use this material to make
money
these scratched coins became smaller and
smaller until they literally weren't
worth their weight in gold or silver
anymore
therefore if the edge was smooth people
knew that the coin had been scratched
and was worthless subscribe for more
