What did you learn today?

[Saki]

In an attempt to promote knowledge I've created this thread. Growing up I was always advised to learn one new thing a day. It can be anything. Even something as simple as the definition to a new word. (EDITED THE SENTENCE. HOLY CRAP BAD ENGLISH)

Today I learned washing a blender is dangerous.

Combustible engines usually have around 30% efficient, meaning you only use 30% of the gas you put in your car, the rest goes to waste.

Things that are hot will burn your skin... I learn that about once a month but I seem to forget a lot... but if intense pain won't teach you what will ???

Last night when I went to take a shower I messed up and left my towel and clothes downstairs. I didn't hear anything so I assumed everyone went home. It was like 12:30 so it was dark and kinda hard to find the light switch.

So I just went downstairs, but once I got downstairs I ran into my friend Sarah. We both made startled noises which attracted a crowd. Everyone was just watching a movie in the next room. So things might be assumed when I'm naked on top of a girl.

Needless to say this was embarrassing. Lesson for this was, just because Raiden did it in MGS2 doesn't mean I can.

Every movie is the best movie ever made....with the kind of following Facebook has you could have a movie showing Hilter eating breakfast for 90 minutes and people would say it's astounding. It's all marketing!
