Today I learned that there is a thread called " Today I learned "
( I also learned that @smooth is sinister.}

Today I learned I sped past a speed camera on 14 March and will soon be $247 lighter in the bank account and 1 demerit point heavier on my license. Kents

What’s worse is that I am too…quite ineptly dextrous too…and finding some things harder to do as I get older and my eyesight deteriorates.

At least I have the comfort that @bugman5 considers me the spawn of the devil.

And Disc (Frisbee) Golf is no different.

I had Rebel Yell in my head all day and only know two lines from the chorus. It annoyed me so I’ve learnt more of it now to be less annoying in my own head.

Seems you really did want more more more

Im 46 and embarrassingly only learned like about two years ago that pickles were cucumbers soaked in vinegar or brine.

I actually thought one could go buy a pickle plant, grow pickles, pick the pickles and then just fully eat pickles.

It wasn’t actually today, it was a few weeks ago actually. I found out that cars have a little arrow and pump icon pointing to the side the fuel is on.

Yes, but the doona cover buttons / zip would be all up in your face like Kyle Reimers after a Joe the goose goal
