Just not funny when it has to be explained.
P.S. Mensch, the decent links toillustrate the phrase all have the word s**t in the url, so our swear filter breaks the link.

Admit it, an elephant hopping up and down, it WOULD be a funny sight, no? Quite cartoonesque actually...

I've read that the old glass panes being thicker at the bottom was done deliberately for some reason to do with constructing the building. I can't find it now (I thought it was on Snopes, but maybe not.)Petseri wrote:I also have heard people claim on different occasions that glass is a liquid. Can anyone explain that one? "Ever notice how old glass panes are thicker at the bottom?" tends to be an argument. Does that mean that leaving two panes of glass laying on top of one another for decades/centuries will result in one pane of glass as they flow and blend together?
Here is one summary on the subject, which comments on the pane glass example.
Other than that your link seems to be a pretty good summary. You have to remember that categories "solid" and "liquid" are human constructs. In the real world, there is no clear cut-off between the two categories.

The phrase "rule of thumb" is derived from an old English law that stated that you couldn't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb.
Apparently, the ladies don´t have to fear restrictions in their choice of weapons.
So much for equal rights.
