Today I learned that tracking international shipments is infinitely more exciting than domestic. I had a package leave Hong Kong on Sunday night. It was already in New Jersey this morning, and as of a few minutes ago, it's in Connecticut.
It's almost enough to make the $86 shipping cost feel worth it.

I learned that jawnz is a word people on the east coast use in place of a noun. We do? Can you use it in a sentence? I haven't heard this word before. We do? Can you use it in a sentence? I haven't heard this word before. Count me in as well It's Philly slang and it basically takes the place of whatever word you want it to. "Yo, did you find E78 anywhere yet? I can't find that jawn (or them jawns) anywhere." As for what I learned today...I had no idea Dr. Fauci was 79. Blew my mind. I figured he was in his 60's.

Not today (but this week)
There is an extensive Eaglemoss series of Game of Thrones figures, but it's exclusive to Europe.

That when people say "break a leg" to theater people, it's not because of superstition. It's because they hope they end up in the cast.

Koalas have fingerprints, and they are nearly indistinguishable from those of a human.

Well it was a couple of days ago but I'm still in shock, turns out Americans don't have a kettle in there kitchen still can't wrap my head around it how the hell do they make a pot of tea . turns out they don't . I blame them Bostonians for this why didn't they pay the damn tea tax like every one else. It appears a growing number of Americans don't own an electric kettle with some not even knowing they actually exist - and it's all down to their hot drink of choice. Tea-loving Brits need to flick on the kettle and brew up at a moments notice while Americans prefer coffee as their top drop so have opted for drip machines instead or just microwave water if it needs to be hot. And of the few that do own kettles in the States, many tend to be the kind you heat on the stove, which has apparently led to some meltdowns. But news that many Americans don't own the appliance has sent people into a frenzy and they took to Twitter to stay how stunned they were. One wrote: "Is it true that Americans rarely own kettles and boil their tea water in the microwave? Wtf is wrong with that country?! #heathens #tea Another said: "In all the movies and tv shows I've watched, I've never seen an American use an electric kettle. These things keep me up at night." While another added: "I just heard americans microwave water. If you're american you legally have to disclose every weird f***ing thing you do to me, right now."

Ernie Hudson, who played Winston Zeddemore, auditioned as the voice for the same character in the animated series but was rejected because they didn't think he sounded enough like Winston from the movie.

Today I learned that the tires on my motorcycle are honestly just gone. And I can't afford new ones so I guess I'll be sliding around like an F1 driver for a few months. No friction whatsoever.

The backstory for the song "Dancing in the Moonlight" is terrifying.

Sorry to be nosy but I'm curious do you put milk in your tea. That John Hancock as got some front must of had a pair as well cos if his plans didn't come off his carcass would have been dragged back to England and Hanged from Traitors gate and no doubt drawn and quarted.

I don't. Two lumps of sugar, if anything.
