    TIL since Oreo filling contains no dairy, the FDA didn't allow it to be called 'cream'. Therefore, it was named 'creme' instead.

    TIL-well, relearned-that I am pretty perceptive. I really should listen to my inner voice better.

    According to an old Hungarian tradition, celebrated for several hundred years, young men pour water on young women, who in exchange present their sprinklers with beautifully colored eggs on Easter Monday.

    I've thought the same. The gym right? That wasn't until season 9? Wow

    Season 8, episode 9. Oops. It’s hilarious. Dwight got even funnier after Michael left. Apparently CrossFit has been around a lot longer, but I don’t remember it being well known and widely popular until the last few years. If there’s no tin cutting or phone book tearing I don’t want any part of it.

    TIL A new study conducted microbial surveys to investigate whether hand-dryers were sucking in potentially infectious microbes and then spraying them all over everything, as had been observed in earlier studies. They were.

    I have a friend who I haven't known very long claims to be Intuitive and has had her visions come true describe for me the Man who will end up making my life happy, she claims to have seen this person from the first moment she met me in September and to this day sees the same. He is a successful business owner, very tall, muscular but not body builder build, full head of brownish blonde hair and med length beard neatly groomed and a little gingerish and has aqua blue eyes. Clearly not the Man I'm seeing now and a little smitten for. :/
