Remember these like a goldfish.

1. Drinking alcohol doesn't kill brain cells.
2. Thomas Edison didn't invent the light bulb.
3. You do not use only 10% of your brain. You use 100%.
4. You can't see the Great Wall of China from space. (For a start, it's the same colour as the surrounding landscape.)
5. Twinkies do not last forever. Their shelf life is about a month and half.
6. Nobody ever said "Beam me up, Scotty" in the original Star Trek TV series. Also nobody says "It's life, Jim, but not as we know it."
7. Vitamin C probably won't stop you getting a cold.
8. Toilet pioneer Thomas Crapper's name isn't where we get the word "crap" from.
9. Goldfish don't have a memory of just three seconds. They can actually remember things for quite a long time.
