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 I should re-read my posts several times before submitting, darn errors. Of course I won't have to do this when/if they implement an edit button.

I learned that the Giants are the first team to win 2 World Series titles in 3 years since the Reds won in 1975 and 1976.

Oh yeah, for those of you who haven't heard, the Giants won the World Series again. Don't get the wrong idea now, this is actually what I look like when I'm excited.

I learned that sometimes patience and determination pays off and sometimes it is just a depressing waste of life. I also learned sometimes it is not easy to tell which way it will go and when you should just give up.

If you specifically call a moderator inactive it is a great way to start a bad relationship.

I learned that most songs can be played with four chords.

I also learned that there is another person that can hit the note in the song take on me.

I'm not joking.

I learned that I post threads that somehow don't even show up.

I tried 2 get help from the programming help forum, but my thread just didn't show when I got back 2 it.

So did my other threads. Can someone tell me what's going on?

TIL that the gastroenterology ward's lactulose regimen for hepatic encephalopathy is 120ml lactulose PR QID.

PR, as in per rectum.
