30 Times Folks Were Blind To The Obvious And Just Recently Realized What’s Up, As Shared Online My grandson just figured out I am his mothers mother. He just can't understand why I tell him we have to ask his mom to do some things. Why can't I just tell his mom we are going to do something? I am her mom therefore her boss!

    30 Times Folks Were Blind To The Obvious And Just Recently Realized What’s Up, As Shared Online Growing up, my grandparents religiously had a 3:00 PM “Pepsi” time. Like Tea Time, I guess, but with Pepsi. Every time we were over there, it happened. We all enjoyed a crisp, fizzy, cold Pepsi.

    At 43 years old, I was telling that story this week, when I suddenly realized theirs were most likely spiked.

    Some are fixed and some rotate. The latter is used for more experience dancers to complete more complex moves. The one I used was fixed.

    30 Times Folks Were Blind To The Obvious And Just Recently Realized What’s Up, As Shared Online I spend too much time choosing to be negative when I could really be happy. After a vacation I had a major attitude adjustment and applied to school in the town I visited. Suddenly debt doesn't depress me, cause I'm accumulating it for reasons I know are worth it. In the past few weeks I've journaled mostly optimistic things, and today I realized I had spent over half of the journal talking myself into a deeper hole. I can't unwrite it now, but that just makes me value the pages I have left so much more. I don't want my life to be a journal full of sad thoughts. I want to be happy.

    That worms don’t come onto the sidewalks when it rains because the wet concrete is irresistible to their squishy bodies. It’s because they’re drowning in the grass. This was a few years ago, but at that time, I had a masters degree and was walking into my full time engineering job. A bunch of worms on the sidewalk outside my building and an “oh” lightbulb that clicked on in my head

    There was a former school soccer field near where I live. Everytime it poured, worms would crawl all over the sidewalk. Being a high traffic area, the worms would get squished. I never knew earthworms smell "fishy" until then.

    Cows only produce milk because they are mothers.

    I mean, I genuinely just thought cows made milk all the time until not that long ago. They have to have babies and have a 9-month pregnancy just like humans. Then we take their milk from their babies :(

    Not enough people know this. But there are nice ways to do it. Our cow had a calf and we split the milk 50/50 with him. She will produce as much as is needed (up to around 4 gallons, I think), so he gets enough and it doesn't hurt either of them.

    His full name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III. So he calls himself 'Eminem' in order to keep focus on his music, rather than to pledge his allegiance to the chieftain and offer his sword to Scotland. Or it could be the two 'M's thing.

    I've just had my eyes tested, and optometrists are keyed into the hesitation when answering this question. The greater the hesitation, they assume the harder it is for the person to decide. With one lens, I had to ask for clarification. It was better without, the first lens made dots sharper, but gave them a tail, the second wasn't as sharp, but they retained their shape. Instead of saying '1' or '2', I explained what I was seeing, and left it up to the optometrist to decide. :o)

    I first realized only a couple of years ago that Elvis sings about the “whole cell block” in Jailhouse Rock, not the “wholesale block.”

    I’d imagined there being a Costco and a Petsmart and a Super Cuts and an AT&T store and maybe a Jimmy John’s and all the people shopping there were doing the Jailhouse Rock.

    It took me a solid 25 years of knowing that song to clue in.

    I hate coriander because it has a weird taste. Apparently it has to do with a recessive gene present in ~20% of the population

    That basil leaves don't come from tomato plants. I've always seen basil-tomato on everything and I just assumed that they came from the same plant lol

    This one is super obvious. I bought two nice suits there I ever only used once for a job interview. They give good advice on shoes, shirt, tie and the suit is made to fit and all colors match. It’s correct what they advertise. You look great when they are done.

    I'm working for a leisure nautical company where they call me "Newbie Anchor" - except, they don't, they refer to me as my predecessor's name: Bianca.

    So they were saying "New Bianca" and you were hearing "Newbie Anchor"? If I was your co-workers I would have played it off because that's more humiliating for them not you
