The phrase “sweating like a pit” is a misnomer, because pigs can’t sweat. They have no sweat glands.

Kumquats are one of the only foods on Earth that have natural pectin in the seeds..While chopping the fruit,if you save and soak the seeds in water for 8 hours before cooking, you can make homemade kumquat jelly with no store bought pectin. Fact.

I learned that one the hard way. Went to department store with girlfriend and said "hey there's the woman's department over there. That's where you need to go".

OMG do you think I'm that fat?

So there is a men’s department, woman’s department, and then just a “department?”

Im generally oblivious to everything and avoid shopping for clothes with a lady.

Old yellow lines in the road are toxic or used to be. I don't learn good.

The white line is the fog line, then...
The major downside to the MUTCD white-yellow system is that yellow has slightly less contrast than white, especially at night, so for maximum contrast, bright yellow—and highly toxic—lead chromate was used to paint yellow lines through the end of the 20th century.

Last year, a study using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometry determined that Tutankhamun's dagger was made with iron containing nearly 11 percent nickel and traces of cobalt: a characteristic of extraterrestrial iron found in many of the iron meteorites that have rained down on Earth for billions of years. He lived during the bronze age.
So they made this from a damn meteorite.
