Ridiculous, isn't it. I bet there's mayo in the back of my fridge that's "vintage".

We had the female narrator in Sheffield last month, it's the first time I've seen it live with a female narrator and she absolutely killed it, she was brilliant. She switched it to, "describe your labia"!

Reply to comment by RonyTheTiger in TIL the phrase “you can’t handle the truth” was created/ improvised by Jack Nicholson. The movie's original screenplay boasted the line "You already have the truth," which Nicholson trimmed to "You can't handle the truth." by SixedSigma
You can use facts to prove anything that’s even remotely true.

Sideshow Bob said it best:
“You want the truth? You can't handle the truth! No truth-handler, you! Bah! I deride your truth-handling abilities!”

It's this one!

The little reflections on the wall drive the cats mad so if you were looking for a good way to avoid sleeping for a number of years, get this lamp and a young cat. You'll be looking like Robert Smith out of The Cure in no time at all.

It's not in mine. Mine has tiny silver cut-outs of TIE fighters and X-Wing fighters because I'm a grownup.

Reply to TIL That in 1774 James Cook charted Sandy Island off the coast of New Caledonia. Despite its' inclusion in official maps and charts for over two centuries in 2012 an Australian survey vessel proved the island had never actually existed and may have been a 'pumice raft' floating in the area. by GentPc
Everyone from r/lost is just nodding knowingly at each other right now.

Yeah, I think it’s more a figure of speech than a scientific miracle.

They must be knackered after wiggling for 350 years. No wonder my sis and her husband couldn’t get pregnant.

Reply to TIL that Kurt Cobain got the inspiration to make Nirvana's famous song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" when Kathleen Hanna, the singer of the band "Bikini Kill" wrote "Kurt smells like teen spirit" on a board. Teen Spirit was a woman's deodorant and he didn't knew it until he was done with the song. by WonderfulWanderer777
If the song was written in the UK it would have been called “Smells Like Charlie Red” which doesn’t have the same ring to it.
