Seriously, What Have You Learned Today?

[Wazkyraque]

Even the great William Jennings Bryan admitted that he thought Genesis may very well be not all literal.

Which of the two creation stories do you believe in, if I may ask?

In my opinion:
Who cares?
Yay for Apathy.

[Voerdeland]

That hedgehogs live in cities. OK, I've heard about this before. But today I saw one on a pavement literally few metres from my home.

[French Union]

The Witcher is a pretty good game.

[Aeyariss]

I learned that http://nyan.cat/ is really endless! OMG. Almost one full day now!

[Coffee Cakes]

Is unsure an acceptable answer?

Besides, I'm more concerned with the New Testament anyway, or at least the Gospels.

Indeed, that is reasonable.

Well, for me the OT has some valuable lessons, but it's more meant for the Jews. The NT is for the Christians. but some of the stuff in the epistles is just culturally related to that time period, so I tend to skip them parts.

[Nationstatelandsville]

I learned that the old WHYLT is still un-archived...

The fool behind this shall burn for his sin.

[Brauzillia]

That there was an earthquake in NYC today, I live in Manhattan but I never knew it happened because of me in the North Bronx

Yeah, an earthquake in New York. How odd. I heard the epicenter was in Virginia.

I'm a Lumberjack and I'm okay,
I work all night and I sleep all day.

I cut down trees,
I skip and jump,
I like to press wild flowers.

I dress in women's clothing,
And hang around in bars.

[Grenartia]

That Psychology is one of the more fun classes one can take in college.

I figure I'll take it, because it gives so many insights into how people work.

[Zeth Rekia]

That insects can suffer from depression.

[Nationstatelandsville]

That insects can suffer from depression.

Puts a whole new spin on the Ant Bully.

[Alevuss]

That my favorite Christian Rock band will likely be coming out with one more album sometime in the next couple years or so, even though they've already disbanded.

That my favorite rapper's newest album will likely not come out in America for another year.

That ice isn't slippery. When water freezes, its molecules move farther apart (Liquid water is more dense). When you step on ice, you are forcing the water's molecules closer together, thus, forcing the ice to become water.

That in 1470, a rooster was publicly burned for allegedly laying an egg.

That a woman in Austin, Texas must eat every 15 minutes to stay alive.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay
I sleep all night and I work all day

I cut down trees
I wear high heels
Suspenders and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear mama

That insects can suffer from depression.

Seriously? All insects or just certain species?

[Soviet Haaregrad]

This new information awes me, Deus. Please, elaborate without mentioning the ill-known Josephus.

I actually don't know much about it, but it's a pet interest of a friend of mine. He's mentioned by certain Roman scholars like Pliny, Tacitus, and Seutonius. Some stuff about him in the Talmud. A few Greek philosophers like Lucian and Celsus. There's a historian named John Dickson who writes about this stuff. He's apparently considered reliable and unbiased. It's not a particular area of interest for me, but if you want to look it up, go ahead.

Most references to Jesus were written at least 50 years after the time of his supposed death, there's no contemporary reports, just ones after his cult was gaining notoriety.

That's just too absurd to be untrue.

[The House of Petain]

That my neighbor's friend is really hot and if I do this right (meaning I get them really drunk), I might be able to pull off a threesome.

If you have to get them drunk, you're doing it wrong.

Pssh. Who cares how's it accomplished as long as it is accomplished

[Zeth Rekia]

That insects can suffer from depression.

Uncertain. Zeno's intrigued though. The concept of keeping a tortured insect alive a few days before returning it to its nest with its comrades provides a nice question:

Will the tortured insect have its comrades euthanize it, or will it not acknowledge its peril as an emotional down-weight that it wont see suicide as an escape from its pain?

Is that so? I don't have the knowledge to refute it and I don't much care anyway, so I'll accept that it's true.

[Greater Cabinda]

That Illuminati-based NWO conspiracies are hilarious.

[Buffett and Colbert]

I learned that T&L appears to have accepted our bribe of cookies. Welcome to the Dark Side.

I don't know, but that sounds extremely evil. I will strive to be more compassionate in my treatment of insects from now on.

The sex doesn't feel right though...

Unless alcohol makes them horny. In which case, it is EXTREMELY right.

Psh. The Moral Side has cake that is in fact NOT a lie.

*noms*

Here, have some.
