Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 03, 2024

I never made a habit of it, but I have on occasion swallowed toothpaste, esp in VN… was I supposed to die? I felt no ill effects! Other crap me though

How can a black hole be luminous? Isn’t it “black” because light cannot escape??

the black hole still can’t suck in as much $ in a day as the US Government

wait, are you saying toothpaste is undigestible?

Marcel has not yet returned…

Marcel, what could possibly go wrong?

For the past 20 years my wife has been complaining about me not putting the cap back on the toothpaste.

Last anniversary, I decided to change this bad habit and make my wife happy.

For a week, I was diligent, always capping the toothpaste. I was expecting my wife to thank me, but she never did it.

Finally last night, she turned and looked at me and said – “Why have you stopped brushing your teeth?”

Marriage is a most difficult relationship, I tell you.

As far as I know, any toothpaste can be swallowed with no ill effects.

Thankfully, we have black holes, they are natures vacuum cleaners for The universe.

Has NASA invented edible toothbrushes yet?

Wrong! The luminous portion is the corona than orbits the black hole and is considered part of the black hole system.

Can’t all toothpaste be swallowed?

I want a modified toy car that can do 50 mph

I don’t think driving that car like a luge is safe way to commute to work unless you can clear the axles of the vehicles ahead of you. Might be a solution to traffic jams.

If they come up with a scotch flavored toothpaste, I’d swallow it

what could go wrong, mr. paul?

For goodness’ sake, swallowing a little toothpaste is hardly gonna kill you! I always get a little down my throat when I’m brushing. I’ve even put a little on the back of my tongue if I get an icky taste in my throat. The only time it might make you a little sick is when it’s pure fluoride. In second grade we had a dental demo and if we wanted to use the fluoride paste, our parents had to sign a waiver. I asked my mom to because I expected it to taste like normal toothpaste. It was NASTY! No flavoring at all. I didn’t get sick from what little I swallowed, but another kid’s stomach was upset.

Astronaut ice cream tastes terrible
