Be back in a jiffy!

Most of us know this common phrase...

But what is a jiffy?

Hands up if you've ever asked that question.

I know I have!

And so, I'm here today to tell you all the meaning of the word 'jiffy'

Jiffy, believe it or not, is a unit of measurement!

A jiffy is equal to: 33.3564 pinoseconds.

A pinosecond is one trillionth of a second...

Ohhh!

That makes sense now!

I never knew what a pinosecond is...but then, in that case...no one can say the phrase: Be Back In A Jiffy, because no one is that fast, so THAT means...

It means...

We've been lied to...

OUR ENTIRE LIVES!
