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 learned that laptop touch pads can accidentally cause you to highlight all of your text in a post. Pressing the 'f' key has never been so disastrous.

And what a beautifully drawn armatar it is. Don't forget about @DaRkNe5s.

I've heard about people having seizures while playing certain kind of video games but this is insane.

Next time we'll hear about a guy falling out of his windows and die from playing tennis on his Wii. pen_mouth:

I learned that I added @SirLegendary as a friend sometime in 2010. I don't even remember most of the people on my friends list, but it's okay because they've probably long since forgotten about me as well.

I also learned that internet journalists have a ways to go when it comes to wordplay. From SSTG's article,

All children were so engrossed in 'Super Mario Bros.' that they ignored their urge to go to the toilet.

But no mention of anyone going Wii in their pants. What a wasted opportunity.

I learned that there's a Gemcraft thread on its sixth page in which about 77% of the posts as of now are made by users with red shield armatars.

Just look at the first page.

I learned that I have made enough comments on this site to have reached Gold King twice from comments alone. Kids, if you think your life isn't going anywhere...

This product exists, and the video advertisement, which I advise you watch for your own amusement, on the website says the word "toilet" 13 times in two minutes. The next ShamWow?
