Do you have something you've recently learned or something you've known for a long time that is not common knowledge? Do you think others might be interested in learning about it? Post here! Some of us can NEVER get enough knowledge.
Ex. Today I FINALLY learned what a Hurdy Gurdy is (think "Hurdy Gurdy Man" by Donovan).

I agree... I love learning anything new!
I didn't know what a hurdy gurdy was either, but when I hear that song, I think Zodiac is coming to get me! Dang you, David Finch... dang you!
I love these new positive threads/posts, CG. They're great & such a nice boost to everyone's mood! Have nothing to add now... just wanted to tell you good work! Love it!1 -
I've posted this here before, but some interesting historical proof that cats have been dicks for a long time and that it will probably never end until humans are extinct.

Lol. I remember the paint paw prints, when I blocked kitty out of the room & she decided she needed to walk on the window sills anyway, so zoomed passed me.
Wasn't she the angry li'l screeching vixen when I had to grab her, stuff her in a sink & wash off her painty paws.Still, I love 'em all.

Lol, I don't care, but MFP has some pretty strict rules about what they'll let us get away with. Many of us have been thrown in "jail" more than once. I shan't mention names.0 -
I’m out ✌🏾1 -
Yep. I learned that I am lost in this thread.2

So today I learned that there was a lot more to the Cloverfield universe than just the movies. Keep in mind, this is a theory video, but it goes into so many of the nuances and ARG aspects of the movies that it's kinda fascinating.
