Bonus question: Where is London located? (a) The British Isles (b) Great Britain and Northern Ireland (c) The UK (d) Europe (or 'the EU') (e) Greater London
Leap day babies?
That is why the explanation continues: "(other than pedantic exceptions due to calendar issues or timezone alterations, or someone dying before their birthday, or being born on a leap day, none of which apply in this case)".
A friend of mine has his birthday on feb 29th. He was turning 49 and me and my gf showed up to his party with balloons with the number 12 on them (since that's how many actual birthdays he'd had).
number 10 is Ringo
Debatable.
idk man, seems pretty straightforward to me
"Is Ringo the best drummer in the world?"
"Ringo isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles"- The Beatles

You might want to double check. I didn't. I just want to caution people about blindly trusting Snopes. So they might very well be right on this topic.
Are you a dozen or so thoughts down? Yes? Do you deserve love for the perfect share? Very yes!
I've heard from multiple sources (all dubious) that Ringo was the adhesive that held the band together during contentious times. Usually that role is appointed to the heart but in this case it was appointed to the Ringo. The drummer.
Alternatively he was the adult in the room
8 is yes, but I don't have enough space to fit the proof in a post.
Today I triggered a guy who hates FTP and he gave me 4 whole nested comments ranting about how bad it is under the hood. Maybe you just don't wanna fit the proof.
4 is a trick question. Both had zero shark attacks, the so-called "shark" in Jaws was in fact a symbol of predatory capitalism and its amoral violence against the proletariat
5: originally? None. They say there were no stars or planets. Also time and space came to be afterwards.
Edit: I just read the explainxkcd, I get it now. :)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_Replay_Game There were 37 seconds left when it was overturned--not post game.
32 seconds, actually. They must have paused the game timer during the four minute deliberation, drat! If we could find a single example of results being overturned outside of a game then that would satisfy the question.
Number 7 is gonna be a real question one day. Wonder whether it'll be pneumatic tubes or matter transporters that gets there first?
Nah, small airplanes are relatively easy to build. Even if we eventually stop large-scale production there'll always be the occasional hobbiest putting a one-seater together.
Okay, who built the last penny farthing bicycle then?
Who built the last CRT TV?
Who built the last commercial sailing ship?
Who built the last steam locomotive?
Regarding 4. Do lawyer attacks count as shark attacks?
...is the second largest city in Australia. But also has an inflated sense of self-importance.
;)
8 (about Goldbachs conjecture) is one that I don't quite get. Isn't the number 8 already proof that this isn't true (sum of 4+4)?
8 is the sum of 5+3 both of which are primes. I think the Conjecture just states that there is a sum of two primes not every sum consists only of primes
Ah gotcha! I thought it meant exclusively prime numbers
Regarding #9's alternative, "Not counting Canberra, what city was the most recently founded state capital of Australia?" is a bit of a bad question in and of itself, given that Canberra isn't a state capital, since the ACT isn't a state but rather a territory of Australia (alongside the Northern Territory).
Huh, I figured neither movie was a Spielberg movie. Turns out both are
He really has a thing for including shark attacks in all his movies, if you pay attention there's tons of subtle shark stack references in all of his films.
Yeah it was a fucking massacre in the opening scene of saving private ryan.
