[edit] Funnies
- An area the size of Wales:
- The British comedy show The Eleven O'Clock Show parodied the use of this measurement by introducing a news article about an earthquake in Wales, stating that an area the size of Wales was affected.
- The infinite monkey theorem:
- In 2003, lecturers and students from the University of Plymouth MediaLab Arts course used a £2,000 grant from the Arts Council to leave a computer keyboard in the enclosure of six Sulawesi Crested Macaques in Paignton Zoo in Devon in England for a month; not only did the monkeys produce nothing but five pages[1] consisting largely of the letter S, they started by attacking the keyboard with a stone, and continued by urinating and defecating on it.
