I've learned that memories are not completely lost, at least rather sometimes they tend to be put further in the realms of one's mind making it much greater to find said information; however if one's suffers critical damage, said memories are permanently lost absolutely..

How bitter and hard to consume unripe avocado tastes like. :eew:

It's so hard that scooping it with a spoon is difficult to. And it's harder to chew than apples -- it's hard and rubbery.

And the bitter aftertaste somewhat not an aftertaste, the aftertaste is like burn like taste as if it's a bit spicy and acidic.

That Dudley Do-Right from The Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon once had an episode that was banned for over 40 years. It had a character named Stokey the Bear. He was an obvious parody of Smokey the Bear, but instead of trying to help prevent forest fires he would start them because Snidely Whiplash had hypnotized him into becoming a pyromaniac. At the end of the cartoon Stokey is sent to Chicago, where the Great Chicago Fire happens, and Dudley tells Mrs. O'Leary to just blame it on the cow. :lol:

The episode was banned apparently because the US Forest Service thought the cartoon was mocking and making light of the seriousness of the message that Smokey the Bear gave people about fire prevention. But today I got to see it in all its fiery glory on YouTube.

I have my laptop for almost 5 months, I’m still learning about my laptop. I have not had a laptop in over 10 years, I forgot stuff.

I learnt that when you're broken you're not actually broken, you're just a little cracked.

I learned that I can somehow fit 4 hot pockets, 4 protein shakes, and two bags of cheese cubes in my mini fridge

That the term 'nonverbal' has several meanings depending on who you talk too or what you read (and of course how literal you are).

I learned that being a damsel in distress comes with a card. Where do I sign up? And why was I not informed about this before?
