Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 18, 2021

Khenghis Gan

Bylaw Derian One time I was 2 miles tall.

One time I was the seventh largest military in the world.

May the Lord be with you.

The story goes that Khutulun’s suitors would have to wager a horse for each match, and she collected thousands of horses that way. She did marry, at some point, although there’s disagreement who her husband was or why she married him.

As for how Pepsico acquired such a huge military force:

How many suitors did that Mongol lass go through?

I deleted the completely insane comments I wrote to myself the other night. Ambien is one heck of a drug. Anyway, I like that princess. Why no Disney movie about her?

Until defeated by Fanta Marines, they reined supreme.

Take care, may proud puppy Fido “Stop Blaming Me For That Smell” Arford be with you, and gesundheit.

I’m going to try something different today, 2 jokes for the price of one.

Two groups of warriors are facing each other before a battle.

Wanting to intimidate their foes, a swordsman takes out his handkerchief, throws it up into the air and deftly slices it into ribbons before it hits the ground.

Not wanting to be outdone, his opponent also takes out his handkerchief and throws it up in the air. The handkerchief flutters downward and lands untouched amidst the corpses of the first group of warriors, who really shouldn’t have taken their eyes off the man with the sword.

I promised you two, didn’t I? OK – here goes:

What do you call a warrior princess in a nightgown?

A pajamazon.

Until next time.

Grandaughter of Genghis Khan? I think most of the women of the world are the granddaughter of Genghis. He was a most prolific dicktater.

Pepsico may have been the sixth largest military in the world but things go better with Coke. (-a-cola, just to be clear).

United States Marine Corps Drill Instructors in the mid 60’s called the recruits under their command (aka “boots”) Pepsi Generation Killers. Told to me by a friend. Believe It of Not! (Hint: Believe It, you can Count on it ;) )

You know all those suitors got together and said, “You know, if we keep losing, we’ll get to ‘wrestle’ her for a long time.”

Maybe her opponents didn’t try.

I just checked out the Pepsi story and trading warships for Pepsi really is something to brag about, even tho I am not a Pepsi drinker. I wish they would put less sugar in their cola. But, that is just me.

PepsiCo threatened to GAS everyone if they even thought of drinking something else so Coke made a deal with Dr. Pepper who invented Bubble-up which in turn made PepsiCo’s threat less threatening and everyone lived happily ever after except for the weapons dealers – I once wrestled a girl when I was in Junior High. I had more fun losing than I’d ever had before.

I do not care about the other items, I just wanted the puppy safe.

The late Bill Hicks, before the first war against Iraq: “People say ‘Iraq has the fourth biggest military in the world’. Yeah, but there’s a REAL BIG drop off after the first two biggest militaries.”

Pepsi – huh – ?

Since 1 out of 12 men in Mongolia are related to Genghis Khan, she would have just married a cousin anyway

How in the screamin’ cheetah wheelies does a soft drink manufacturer become a military force? How many tanks, aircraft carriers, assault rifles, nuclear weapons, etc. did PEPSICO have?

so Princess Khutulun was the Mongolian Lady Maxima huh? But I feel like I need SO much context for how Pepsi was a military force, let alone the 6th largest in the WORLD.

Not sure how many men would want to marry a woman who exceeded their own physical prowess?

Pepsi: Becomes world’s sixth largest navy

Coca-Cola: gulps severely
