The "I learned something new today!" Thread

Kinda reminds me of the plural of moose being moose lol

This reminds me of that episode of Cinemassacre's YKWBS where James is like "yeah well f you, next time I see a bunch of moose I'm just gonna say 'hey, look at all those mother f'ing MEESE'."

Anyways TIL that Taco Bell quesadillas are not as good as I remember them being lol. Guess I'll just stick w their quesaritos from now on, those are good

Today I learned that you can't sent TBT to someone who has their profile private? Or maybe it's about having messages turned off?

I learned how to make images transparent the correct way (don’t ask me how long it took to edit this avatar/pfp).

Dude.... it takes a LONG time.... I recently added a transparent background to a commission (with their permission) and it took me 2 days to get it to a point where I was happy with it, so I get the struggle lol

i just found out that Cinemassacre is done w Rental Reviews (even though the last episode was posted like 3 weeks ago, how did it take me this long to realize it lol)

Apparently they sell some kind of "Swedish Fish" at IKEAs in Sweden, though they are actually our OG pastel fish and not the red ones lol

I love Swedish Fish! I prefer the red ones, but they released a Tropical flavor, so that one's my favorite now. What is this pastel fish kind? I have to look it up.

I don't know if it's just the lighting or not, but I had ones that were red, orange, yellow, and green.

Probably both but there are both yellow and pastel yellow in those we have here I think

I just learned that when James Rolfe edited his AVGN Wizard of Oz (SNES) video he deliberately synced up parts of the video to go along with "The Dark Side of the Moon," following the rumor that parts of The Wizard of Oz seem to line up with the album if it's started on the 3rd lion roar.

I'm watching them play it on James and Mike Mondays and James mentioned that at the beginning of his video, when he had Mike doing the "lion roars," he actually put tiny numbers at the bottom of the screen so that if you started the album when the number hit three it would line up with TDSoTM. I literally never noticed or knew this before and now I'm very tempted to try it out.

:O where'd you learn to do this? I too would like to learn the art of transparent pictures.

It’s not my current avatar/pfp that I made transparent (obviously), but one of the last ones I had. Just wanted to clarify that.

It helped that the image I chose was already somewhat transparent, but basically I used a free image editing website and made the background of the image as white as possible. The background has to be completely white to match this forum or whichever site you’re using the image on, otherwise it won’t work. I’m not the best at explanations, but I hope that helps at least somewhat.

I did past life regression and I actually saw stuff? im really shocked rn idek how to process it

 

[Alienfish]

Why a lot of female-oriented clothes have no pockets...

That the Super Donkey prototype from the gigaleak wasn't for a secret donkey kong game, but for a rayman esque looking game? People speculate that the main character's name is Donkey. That fact isn't gonna get me anywhere but it was still something I learned xD
