    TIL that when you leave your deodorant in a hot car it melts. And when you open it, it explodes everywhere. AND when it explodes everywhere and you have the AC running in said car it hardens when it lands. I learned this because it happened to me on my way into work this morning, and now the inside of my car looks like someone was videoing a porno in my car because there is white globs all over. So there's that

    I bet your car smells nice now. lol.

    TIL Hugh Jackman took a pay cut to ensure "Logan" would be rated R. Since 'R-rated' films typically limit the overall audience that can attend, Jackman's reduced salary brought the budget down to an acceptable place to warrant an R rating.

    TIL I am really not that witty or fast with comebacks when I am in work mode. I get caught off guard, and too tired to respond.

    TIL that I expect way too much from people

    I used to be this way, and disappointed way to often. Learned to not expect anyone to do anything, except my husband. ;)

    TIL it took Ryan Reynolds 11 yrs to get his vision of "Deadpool" made. The project overcame the failing of "X-Men:Origins" and persevered to become the highest grossing R-rated film of all time.

    TIL In 2010, the Forest Service made Betty White an honorary forest ranger. White said in previous interviews that she wanted to be a forest ranger as a little girl but that women were not allowed to do that then. When White received the honor, more than 1/3 of Forest Service employees were women.

    While looking ahead at the calendar on my phone, I noticed that something called 'Juneteenth' is all day June 19th. Today I learned that Juneteenth is an annual festival to commemorate freedom from slavery in Texas on that day in 1865.

    TIL Mythbusters hosts Adam and Jamie built a combat robot for the show Robot Wars. It was so effective that it often sent pieces of its opponent's bodywork over the shield walls of the arena into the crowd, and after two fights the show's insurance company deemed the bot "too hazardous" to compete.
