Oh boy. You are so stupid. I have known that since…um…you posted this.
Belarus is the only country in Europe in which capital punishment is currently practiced. I don’t remember how I stumbled upon this similarly titled wiki page, but now its stuck in the shores of my memory forever.
I can’t quote the movie, but in Men in Black II, the one alien is told that what they seek has left the third planet. Then, after looking confused, the other says “Earth, you idiot!” Johnny Knoxville says “Third rock from the sun. I never got that til just now”.
Pardon the inaccuracies please.
Yeah, me too. So put me down for this one on the thread list. . . recently, as in, since I opened this thread.
I learned what a tamale is. I ate one. It was delicious! (it’s cornmeal rolled with choice of meat)
Until they get good at it?
Hah! I slay me.
So does Belarus, if you’re not careful.
I just learned (or realized) that what the guy is saying in the Dirty Jobs theme song is “dirty white boy”. That seems inappropriate for a Discovery Channel show.
A surprisingly large number of Etch a Sketch drawings involve penises. I don’t know why. Do you?
I just learnt that the tower of Pisa is 55.863 meters tall.
Officially, that is.
It is the vitamin C in the lemonjuice, not the acid, that works as an “antioxidant” and prevents the apples from going brown. Vitamin C has little taste to begin with, and works well in low concentrations. So next time, you could just grind up a cheap vitamin C tablet, and dissolve it in a little water, and sprinkle it over your apples instead of lemon juice. That’s how commercially presliced apple or presliced mushrooms are kept from turning brown.
Myself, I learned that Outlook has a neat feature for keeping up with to-do lists, but I yet have to find out how it works.
Cerulean and Topaz can both be blue, Viridian is a blue green and Crimson is red or purple (blue and red) This makes Tomb Raider Legend a very interestig game when you have to distinguish these colours on a small, old tv.
Or for Eastern Suburbs winger John Callus, whom, I might add for a sense of completeness, was one of the physically ugliest men ever to play rugby league. I have no photo cite, and you can be thankful for that.

To my list of folk remedies for hiccups, I have added eating two green olives and drinking a small amount of vinegar.
The Blackwater corporation employs roughly 48,000 mercenary soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan.
At the end of this year’s Super Bowl, Tony Dungy was doused with a barrel of ice water. Tarik Glenn intended to follow up with a barrel of Orange Gatorade, but it was bumped aside by the first barrel. The Gatorade doused an employee of the Jacksonville Jaguars, who was standing next to Coach Dungy.
If you go into Windows Task Manager, the processes tab, and you click on CPU twice to organize them so you can see the top performers. It jumps all around, right, as new things kick in?
If you press the Control button (ctrl), it freezes it.
Actually, vitamin C is an acid, ascorbic acid.
I’m known at my workplace as the word usage/grammar/punctuation Nazi. (“That’s not a podium, damn it. It’s a lectern!”)
I just learned that “touchstone” does not mean, metaphorically, the thing that centers and grounds you when you touch it.
Do you already have ‘eat a teaspoonful of sugar’? Much less nasty than drinking vinegar :eek:
Sweet. I’ve now learned this, too!
