    The thread for where you can say things you just learned that you didn't know about!


    Today I learned that this thread continues to exist.

    Does re-learning count? Because one of my lazier co-workers came back from a vacation and he's already causing headaches that I didn't need to learn again....

    Age has no bearing on maturity, as I’ve learned.

    Give it a few centuries and many of the scientific certainties of today will look as silly as the "flies are created from rotting meat."

    "They believed whatttt? "



    Today I learned more about one of my "volunteer/employee" 's family life. I like knowing those things because it's an honor but also it really helped me understand his personality a bit better. Realized I'd been reading into some of the things he does too much and we were having misunderstandings.

    Today I learned new grammar rules. English is my second language and I study abroad to learn it better.

    Today I learned @Yaujta was the first TFW mod to be a blood and a crip.

    I also learned that @Galvatross and @marvel b aren't on drugs they're just on memes.

    Today I learned from @Purple Heart that it's okay to be a weaboo.


    What a quirky day it has been

    Congrats here on this achievement my friend. English can be hard to understand and talk especially in different parts of this country where the dialect is different. Being in the South people's dialect is different then someone in the West or East coast. All spelled the same word just different meaning in the parts.

    Not today, but last night I learned the corner store near me has decent coffee for only a dollar. So I got that going for me in these cold times
