I first tried Chow Fun because George Costanza described it in an episode of Seinfeld. It is now one of my favorite Chinese dishes.

When I was a kid I was watching happy Days and Joanie was teaching Mr. and Mrs. C how to do the Twist and she said, “Pretend you are drying your back with a towel.” and that was how I learned to easily dry my back with a towel (I was a kid, give me some slack :))

What about you? What strange things have you learned from TV Characters.

The word Sesquipedalian - Actually, I first heard it in a movie, The Fighting SeaBees, you know, the one with John Wayne, when the Duke calls another character, “My sesquipedalian friend.” Still I learned it from TV because I first saw the film on television.
