  6. today i learned that a lunar day is 22 minutes different then a normal one

    also i learned that there are people who deny that the dark ages and the black plague ever existed
  7. You will still see the same side of the moon no matter where you are on Earth. To see the "dark side" of the moon you would need to travel beyond the moons orbit of earth.

  9. I learned that you dont try to date crazy evil ladies that remind you of cruella devill and the old hag witch from snow white. (no really she really looks like the old hag witch from snow white. AKA it was my dads girlfriend)

    I learned that I have anger problems and could possible kill someone when they yell at my dad. (seriously had to stop my self before i went to jail...thats right im crazy)

    I learned that even though my 2 irl friends are idiots and get on my nerves they will always be there for me.
  10. The american smarties look like these:

    Whereas the british smarties are the same as the canadian ones.
  11. I have never seen these anywhere O__o (i eat a lot of candy are these off brand?)
  12. They are a British company, I don't believe they export to america.
  13. I bet they are made by the same company and they put a different label on them xD no jk lol my dad swears up and down that off brand stuff is made by the real companies and they make the off brand to get more money lol.

    Also Everyone but America has Kinder eggy thingies. I kind of understand why i mean heck i would swallow the toy because i wouldn't be thinking about it lol. I remember being little and trying to beat pandas to the cereal box to get the toy but now anything non edible is not allowed to be mixed with food because some idiots had to go and swallow them. :/

  14. In the UK just about everything that is supermarket branded is made by a major label. Usually not the leading label (i.e. Kellogg's don't make anyone elses cereal but Weetabix does). While the products might be similar there will be usually be differences, usually a cheaper ingredient or differing recipe. Some supermarkets are very strict on how their own brand products are produced (M&S are notorious for refusing for even the slightest discrepancy) while others are far more lax. No doubt this will change due to the horsemeat fiasco.

  15. Possibly - I've always been curious about the game, but I found out from Aikar we actually have ME and ME2.

    The reason I wasn't here today... Aikar was dragging me all across town - we had a lot of errands that needed to get done (Shopping and what not for birthday doings for family).


    Today I learned that our local Walmart doesn't sell normal sized guitars, and that their child, characterized guitars.. Are 36$ and some change. :eek: (THE HORROR!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Or maybe I'm more of a cheapskate than I knew before.)

    Today I learned I could possibly be even more of a cheapskate than I previously thought.
