The real purpose of these tiny things you see daily, will amaze you

You will be amazed to find out that the real meaning or purpose for the tiny overlooked things you see everyday is different or far away from what you had in mind.

Have you ever wondered the real purpose of the small plastic discs inside a bottle top or some metal like buttons on the pockets of your jeans? I am going to explain the purpose of these things you probably didn’t know of.

Notebook Margins

When you view your book, there are always margins on your far left and right, mostly a red line that separates them from your work. Most people believe it is left for corrections, for numbering or rough work but the main purpose is to prevent your work from damage by animals such as rats that feed on book edges.

Plastic Disc under a bottle cap/top

Most people see it and they do not know their purpose. They help to keep gases in the drink intact and avoid it from escaping and prevent air from outside from getting in.

Stripes on your head or ear phones

The first is the stripes on your headphones or earphones jack- these mostly are on the jack that you enter into your phone or music devices. Mostly they are dark like rings that might look like they are for decoration. They are there to protect the wire that transmits sound to the head phones. They are usually two to three rings one for the left headphone and the other for the right and the other is neutral.

The pipe like hole of lollipop sweets

Most children see that hole as a whistle since it produces sound when air is blown through it. The purpose of the hole at the end of the stick is to prevent a person from choking accidentally by the sweet.

The hole on your ball pen lid and the cap

The hole in your ball pen lid and the hole in your pen- for the lid the purpose is to prevent you from accidentally swallowing the lid whereas the hole on middle of pen shaft helps circulation of air in the pen to prevent creation of a vacuum in the pen that would make the ink come out.

The button like metal rivets on the jeans pocket

They are put there to prevent your jeans pockets from ripping open when placed under strenuous activity since people wear jeans mostly to strenuous work or walk.
