When you buy a car at a dealership, the APR you pay is higher than the rate you qualify for. For instance, after a grueling negotiations session, your application gets sent to a lender and it comes back to the dealership with an APR of 10%. The dealership will come to you and say "Congrats! You were approved for 13%!" This difference can be quite a bit of money (hundreds to thousands of $ depending on the amount financed) that YOU have to pay. But guess who keeps it! The dealership. After negotiating down a few thousand dollars over a course of 2 or more hours, they will make up for it with this method. And..it's totally legal.

The games at theme parks are not rigged, you just have to figure out the nitch. There were plenty of guys that used to come out and win all the big prizes in minimum tries and then sell them for a large profit on the side of the road.

On average there are approximately 100 lightening strikes every second worldwide.

When killing hookers in your basement it's REALLY recommended you wear goggles and a facemask to cover your eyes mouth and nose. Turns out some of them have AIDS.

You would not believe how filthy some restaurant kitchens are. I have several clients that are restaurant owners and there are some places in my city that I will not eat at. I can't believe the people even work in these places. And while they make food in the filth, it gets shipped out to the unsuspecting customer.

Some gross places in my City:

Punjabi (they make their buffet in the basement where the sewer backs up regularly)
Chili's (fucking gross floors, tables, utnesils and cooks)
Some Western Pizza locations (old food from the day before, gross dishwashers)

There are also some places that are so tidy that it's actually pretty amazing

joking about killing someone is never funny in my book.
