The "I learned something new today!" Thread

I learned today that "dekokissen" is the German word for pillow! My brother came back from Germany a few weeks ago, and he got me a Volkswagen pillow with the word on the tag.


It's the best dekokissen ever too

yeah, should be said "kissen"(pillow) is the word in general, dekokissen is like decoration pillows you have in the sofa or such. https://www.home24.de/kategorie/textilien/kissen/dekokissen/

Today I learned that New Hampshire’s official state motto is “Live Free or DIE” and honestly that is just the most American thing I’ve ever heard and I love it. I actually want to visit New Hampshire now and just buy some merchandise and leave, just so I can have that so every time I see it I’ll laugh. The more I think about the more I realize that’s just a brilliant marketing strategy. Hats off to you, New Hampshire.

I hate this sub model for everything nowadays, like if it's a photoshop/paint etc. software or antivirus thing you'd wanna keep it..

Apparently, silver reacts to sulfur, so if you eat eggs with a silver spoon, it'll turn black.

I just learned today that it's Franklin D. Roosevelt's face on the US dime. For some reason I never knew that before.

Ramune sodas original flavor pretty much just tastes like a light version of Baja Blast.
It is quite good, but I think I still prefer Baja Blast.

Debi Derryberry, the voice actor for Jimmy Neutron, also voices Coco Bandicoot from Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled! It’s nice to see (or hear in this case) that we can somehow connect with them through our younger days in today’s modern times.

Saw a headline on a tv that was muted. It was something like: "Alabama police warn that flushing drugs could create "meth gators".

That the tie on a dressing gown is not designed to keep it closed. It's there for the cat to grab in its teeth and lead their human to wherever the hell they please.

My darling Mikki taught me this. She wouldn't lie to me.
