The Hole In Your Lollipop Stick

If you loved making your lollipop stick into a whistle when you were done with the candy itself, then you were using it wrong! Well, not wrong, but that hole in the stick has a different purpose. It’s actually there to allow the manufacturer to pour the melted candy into the molding and have some of it seep into the hole. The reason for this is so the candy doesn’t fall off the stick.

The Letter Arrangement On Your Keyboard

Isn’t it odd that the letters on the keyboard aren’t in alphabetical order? As you may have guessed, there is a reason for that. The first keyboard invented belonged to the typewriter that operated with metal arms. Initially, the keys were arranged in alphabetical order, but typing that way became a habit to typists and eventually, they ended up typing too fast. This caused the key arms to get stuck. The only thing stopping us from going back to alphabetized keyboards is the fact that now everyone is too used to this order.
