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?

I haven't been here since before MMOs showed up and I am the user with the most posts? April 17, 2012. 2 years, 7 months, 17 days. Wow, I didn't realize I've been gone for so long. Well, goodbye again everybody.
Oh, and I learned that I have very mild scoliosis today. On a brighter note, I also got two prescriptions to treat my severe back pain—caused by an accident a year and a half ago.

I learned something that I should have learned year and years ago. That 'necro' refers to necromancy...In the past I had thought of the latin word 'necro' which means "I kill" so I was pretty confused. It all makes sense now. The world is much clearer place.

They keep you becoming a cold hard rock. Quite worth it in the long run.

I learned that car battery terminals have little caps on them. It makes it quite frustrating when you don't know it... Especially when they are black, and you don't have a flashlight. Quite the lesson!

Today I learned that I currently hold the 19,518th place on the hero board. I feel oddly underachieving.
