There are more than 10,000 postmen in Thailand. According to a recent survey, about 18% of them has been chased by a dog when on duty. To spare the postmen the “dog threat” post office in Thailand now offers special classes, teaching postmen the habits of dogs.
600 postmen in Bangkok were enrolled in the class, where they learn how to prevent dogs from biting them. They are suggested not to look straight into a dog’s eyes, which is considered a provocative action by dogs. They are also taught to relax while walking so as not to agitate the dogs.
But apparently, the most effective way is to make friends with the dogs, who the postmen have to deal with every day. This will spare them the most trouble.
Aged 71, Ming Can Wu and Ming Tang Wu are twins living in Taoyuan, a city one hour away from Taipei. Not only do they look and weigh the same, but they live right next to each other. And they are both breakfast restaurant owners.
Ming Can and Ming Tang are just one of those twins who have dozens of funny stories to tell about being twins.
One tine, Ming Can went to see an eye doctor, and not long after he left, Ming Tang went too. The doctor was like, “What are you doing here again?”
Yet another time, Ming Tang went to a barber, and the next day, Ming Can went too. And the barber was like, “I thought I cut your hair yesterday, why is it growing so fast?”
Twelve years ago, Ming Can decided to open a breakfast restaurant, and within a few months, Ming Tang did the same thing, right next to his brother’s store. It’s not that they get competitive or anything; it’s just that when customers are often confused. “Didn’t he was just there frying radish cake? What is he doing here in the next store?”
Many people like to dip OREO into the milk before eating it, but instead of soaking the whole cookie, they usually dip it. The 28-year-old driver said, he was eating OREO with milk in the car, and he accidentally dropped the whole cookie into the milk, which freaked him out and made him speed.
After testing, he was proven not driving under influence, but now the court will have to decide whether saving OREO is a legitimate reason to speed.
A British Survey found that one’s success is associated to his name to some degree. Those with a name like James or Elizabeth are more bound to success; on the other hand, Johns and Helens might have a less bright future.
Based on the survey, Ryans and Sophies are the most attractive, while guys named George and girls named Anne lack attraction. Jack and Lucy are names that bring people good luck.
Some claim that employers tend to like people with certain names, but others argue that if “George” is such an unattractive name, how do you explain George Clooney? Researchers say, if George Clooney was named Ryan Clooney, he would be even more popular.
