Reply to TIL the first known résumé was written by Leonardo da Vinci, when applying to be a military engineer for the Duke of Milan. It's mainly just a list of his designs for siege weapons (including trebuchets). He briefly mentions his art: "In painting, I can do everything possible." He got the job. by Pfeffer_Prinz
Imagine if they sent a letter saying, "Sorry, requires more experience."

Reply to comment by Funkybeatzzz in TIL a UK punk band called the FF'ers were bottled at the Reading Festival in 2008 after rumours circulated their set was a secret Foo Fighters gig. Their bassist said items thrown included "bottles, shoes, clumps of earth, phones, a full packet of cigarettes (exactly what we needed after the gig)" by electricmaster23
Yeah found that out and feel like a fucking asshole. Great band, still great movie.

Reply to TIL that the human hand has a unique network of blood vessels, nerves and tendons called the "anatomic snuff box". This area is located on the back of the hand, between the thumb and index finger, and is named for its historical use as a place to hold snuff (a type of finely ground tobacco) by jakebig
Pinching it may help stop nosebleeds and headaches if I remember correctly.

Reply to TIL dunce caps were originally a sign of high intelligence and wisdom. Philosopher and theologian John Duns Scotus was a proponent of pointy hats as a way to funnel knowledge to the mind and his followers, called Dunsmen, wore them. By the 1500s the Dunsmen fell out of favor as “behind the times”. by Aequitas05
What about The Cones Of Dunshire?

Reply to TIL the BBC ran a paranormal investigation show called Ghostwatch on Halloween in 1992. The fictional program was filmed to appear as real as possible, using a BBC broadcaster as the host. It only aired once due to the uproar of a frightened public. by kevlarbuns
So I assume it was so successfully scary, they had to drop it? Never brought it back again later or on any other platform?
