I don't think you know, what you think you know, baby.
But baby, don't you think that I know what I know, maybe?

Bonus points if you recognize that reference.

The only thing I am 100% sure about is that I do not believe in any sort of god or supreme power. Everything else caps out around 80-90%.

I am 100% sure that:

Pepsi is better than coke

What is real, is real, regardless of your perception(aka, Schrodinger's cat train of thought is bs)

"Sword of Truth" is the best book series that I have ever read.

"Transformers" is not a bad movie.

"Legend of the Seeker" is the worst piece of entertainment media ever created.

it's supposed to be more like an oblate spheroid with a flattening of 0.0033528

and I'm 100% sure that the sky is blue.

it appears blue (different hues because of Rayleigh scattering) because of scattered sunlight
Me, I don't know anything 100% certain (for all I know this is the Matrix and I wake up in a minute, you can't know for sure), but assuming things are certain makes life quite a bit easier.

Its actually a somewhat squashed sphere. Fatter in the middle than at the top. So it is not spherical, only spheroid.

Also, the sky is purple, but our eyes see much more efficiently in the blue than in the purple. Spectroscopic instruments reveal the purple, however. Has to do with the wavelength dependence of Rayleigh scattering in the atmosphere-- more efficient at shorter wavelength.

Well, I'm 100% sure that I'm male.

I'm 100% sure that my room looks like a disaster.
and I'm 100% sure that the sky is blue.

.........What? You were expecting something else?
... Can I point out the sky isn't blue?
It's colourless, transparent. The only reason you see it as blue is because sunlight gets diffracted by the gases in the atmosphere.


OT: I know for a fact that I am always right my hair is curly.

I'm not sure what to answer.
I do like this quote:
Albert Einstein said:
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
I'm not sure about it, and I don't think I agree with it, but I like it.

Nothing - but mathematics is probably the closest thing that I'm sure about. Therefore any phenomenon that can be statistically assessed and given a confidence limit, I suppose you could say I'm sure about. Assuming that life isn't a dream of course.

I'm 100% sure that there are a lot more things I am 100% sure about.

I'm 10% percent sure that I will make a list of these remaining items that I am 100% percent sure about.

Yeah, I know it.
Are you sure there isn't at least a slight chance that that's wrong? No?
Well I'm sure that...my computer sucks.
Yeah, cos even if I get my brain trapped in a computer or whatever I'd get bored/depressed by infinity. There's only a few (billion) years until entropy causes the universe to become uninhabital anyway, so I'd definitely die then.

God damn I'm sure!!

I'm 100% sure I loathe the UK's latest Marmite advert. SHUT UP ABOUT YOUR STUPID HAUTE CUISINE. Why does it have to play every advert break?!

I'm never 100% sure about the future. I like to hope it'll be excellent. I'm 100% sure it'll end in death, though.
