You learn something new every day, whether or not you realize it right away. There are no exceptions to this rule.

Today I learned the difference between bowler hats, pork pie hats and fedoras. Before today, they were all just fedoras to me. It never occurred to me that all three of these different hat styles had different names.

I also learned that Roseanne is Jewish, and that gummy shot glasses exist.

It doesn't have to be anything life-changing or significant or anything, just something that you learned. So AG, I ask you now, what did you learn today?

Every time R2 brings that up I want to smash my fist into a superpunch through the monitor and hit R2 in the face.
Also, I forgot to say I learned that there's about 2700 kids at my school. Aiyaa~
And I learned that R2 randomly googles people's usernames, because how else would he have found that? 0_o Stalker R2.

That I shouldn't be wasting time here and should get some huge projects done.

I learned that poetry can be used in Science class.

5 years ago, I wrote a rap about vitamins for a group project:

Yo, it's time for a rap, so let's recap;
Vitamin A, that's what I say,
It's soluble in fat, you should know this,
If you take too much you get hypervitaminosis.
Vitamin B, there's too many types to see;
Vitamin C: if you don't get enough, you get scurvy.
Vitamin D lets you walk free,
Vitamin E can be found in kiwi,
Folate helps lower the death rate,
Vitamin K can prevent your doomsday.
That's all I've got to say; take your vitamins every day.

I learned that if my sister does a flying jump onto my legs to wake me up on Friday, they start hurting today. Also I learned that if I'm simply swallowing some pills as medicine, people automatically assume I'm getting high.
Ah, highschool.

Seniors are idiots. This happened. The 'other substances' they mention are listed but not limited to: piss, gatorade, semen, and other bodily fluids.
It's supposed to be worse tomorrow. Fun.

On my vacation, I learned that in Atlanta, Georgia there was the Olympics and a bomb that blew up, years ago. And apparently if your staying in a hotel near Disney, no matter how fancy the hotel is, you cannot get Cartoon Network.

I also learned that Quality hotels aren't very quality.

Today I learned that punching a wall out of rage makes a big fist sized dent in the wall, and makes your hand hurt like hell.
