Things you were shockingly old when you learned

now I hate the song twice as much, thanks

Vancouver is Canadian San Diego, if you think about it.

I learned two months ago that peanuts aren't nuts.

I learned very recently that Vancouver is all the way out west... I just thought it was close to Toronto or something. idk fuck

I didn't know Vancouver was on the Pacific til I was 27.

Vancouver is undoubtedly canadian seattle

I heard about it as Vancouver being Canadian San Francisco as in arty bohemian magnet some years ago. I think reflected in music scene etc.
But not sure who from there beyond My Indole Ring and Subhumans during different eras.

at least we're all agreeing it's like some other west coast city

It's like the Joplin, Mo. of British Columbia.

I just now found out that Mickey and Minnie are boyfriend and girlfriend, not brother and sister

they're both

fuckin mice mannnn

theyre also postsexual btw

i can't remember the last time i saw an actual mickey mouse cartoon. when was the last one made? *goes to wiki*

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_and_the_Roadster_Racers

There was one of those 3-D computer-generated shows starring the Mouse. Soundtrack by They Might Be Giants

Annnoyed me at :59 how fast the characters disappeared from them leaving the gate to when the camera pans to its wide shot.

That the power on/off symbols '|' and 'O' come from the binary system, 1 and 0. This knowledge helps enormously to keep the two apart.

It took me ages to learn which is which. I think this is because I have a memory of shutting down a television set when I was young, you'd see this fading flash that, in our case, resembled '|'. So I always thought that meant 'off', and O seemed logical to me to mean 'on', in an open circuit kind of way.

It never even occurred to me. I just thought it was a cool symbol.

a lot of these symbols that are just 'symbols' on the surface are actually quite logical. Like the divide-by sign (a dot, above a line, above a dot - can't find it on a modern keyboard) is just a representation of what you'd do with long division.

That makes sense. But to me '|' feels way more like 'closed', or off, than O which feels open or on. But it's the other way around.

that americans think michael flateley is irish

michael flateley is the most american least irish person in the world

Most American Irish are more likely to have predominate DNA/family history that hails from the fjords, brits or the Nazis, you can't blame them for trying really.

Just seems unnecessary

It's absolutely necessary, compellingly so.

hes like an andre rieu michal bolton lovechild playing a mad max villain for a beauty pageant i dunno how you expect positivity

haaaa

haha

I hope someday you guys will come back to this thread about learning how indefensible it is to mock appearances like that.

Unless you're just talking about hair, clothes and fake tans. I'll criticize those choices but gently, unless the person is a raging anus and their hair, clothes and makeup choices reflect their douchery.

Like this stupid looking fuckhead

Have you heard of this American guy, Michael Flatley?

Is he known to be a bad guy?

http://is-a-cunt.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/flately1.jpg

looks p orange to me

rag will you go check why this tart is in todays news before pissing and marming pls

also yes his appearance is both a dedicated choice (fair enough) and totally reflects his douchery

the cunt looks like he is auditioning for season 2 of The OA in that pic, and doesn't seem suitably muscly + lean enough to be a proper dancer.

Me + my bro were press-ganged into Irish Dancing lessons for a couple of weeks in '80. Until it was realised there were expenses for ridiculous shoes and one of the instructors was a bit dodgy w/ kids and we were dreading every minute of it.

I found some anti-Trump firebrand called Daniel O'Donnell on Twitter, but sadly it wasn't my mum's hero.

who... who is this mans

he is the.... lord of the dance

a number of performers of his type are the real life version of your mother's warning that "if you keep making that face, it'll freeze like that"

he has this permanent smug half-smile eyebrow raise

andre rieu hilariously has this smug half-smile because he does it while playing the violin. now he's cursed to half smug at all times
