I've heard that referred to as a bug (no pun) but to me it looks like it is just hiding up there, ready to jump down on Blather's head!

I love the detail, but that would just be the worst IRL. Centipedes are mean, from what I've heard.

Centipedes can bite when provoked. Yikes.

At least the house centipede isn't in this game. I get those where I live and they're hideous monstrosities.

Today I learned that voided villagers from months ago, can move onto another island if there's a free plot. Even if you visit someone with a full island.
I had Cookie on my island months ago, and visited a friend of mine the other day. She had an empty plot and the next day it was sold to Cookie. When Cookie had movied in, my friend talked to her and she said that she'd moved from my island. I had been to other islands over that time, and them with full islands.
I remember in New Leaf you could clear a voided villager if you went to a full town. I guess you can't do that now.

I learned that if you're standing on the edge of a cliff, you can fish down to a pond below you

Today I learned that in Japan, it is customary to savor the first sunrise (初日の出 hatsuhinode) and sunset (初日の入りhatsuhinoiri) of the new year, which is why the sunrise and sunset on the 1st were especially beautiful.

Saw this on reddit today and was really impressed. It looks amazing!

TIL that not only do you get a check on your DIY card for making the item, the cards have an acorn background pattern that turns holo once you've made the item.

TIL if Labelle is visiting in your plaza and you have a villager that has a thought bubble walking by her, she will tilt her head even further up than usual to look right at their thought bubble. I'm assuming other NPC's at the plaza will do the same but I haven't noticed.
I know that she always looks right at anyone walking by, but this time I noticed it was directly at the bubble/text lol.

TIL hitting the manhole with a bug net will produce a unique sound.

I just learned that some of the fake paintings and statues are haunted? :O The Wistful Painting and Graceful Painting are particularly eerie. Now I need to see if any of my fakes are haunted!

I learned that there are coordinates on the map. Never noticed that before.

 

[heartdrops]

TIL you can use the touch screen to type

This is more of a realization than a discovery, but...

You get free toast whenever you buy the over toaster. Such a great deal.

Okay not today... but Recently I Learned that if flowers are on the sand they won’t regrow their buds! Spent days waiting for my lilies to regrow hahaha

Today I was pleasantly surprised that you could do this!

I was expecting that animation you get when you can't dig in a spot, but turns out you can put waterfalls at the very edge! It looks quite nice even if you can't see it

ohmyfeck, thank you so much for sharing this that looks gorgeous, and a lot better than just shuddering it off prematurely.

Also, throwing beans at snowflakes makes them disappear.
