Today I learned...

[Hoosier Daddy]

Today I learned that an avocado is actually a berry. I mean, I knew it was a spreadable fruit, but a berry?
hmm

Only thing I knew about them is if you cut it in half, top to bottom, it looks like a twat.

 

[4eyes]

What the hell kinda twats have you been looking at?......
A peach I could see......but an avacado? ROFL

TIL well.....YIL that if you go to the ER for a one hour procedure, it takes 7-9 hours.
For the second time in two weeks we had to take my Mom in to have fluid drained from her lungs. We knew what was wrong, had our own X-rays (from our regular doc), and had our doc call them before-hand. It still took 7 hours. :

Last month I learned that taking care of a Mom with memory issues, gets orders of magnitude harder after open heart surgery.

TIL that captain crunch is not a captain, he's a Commander. Check the stripes on his sleeve.

Had to Google it, but you're right..that lying, cheating SOB!

Of course, Commander Crunch sounds more like a monster truck or wrestler than a kids' cereal

My heart goes out to you, 4 Eyes. When children have to care for their parents it is never easy.

TIL that wearing a collared shirt on a long ride is a bad idea. 20 mile highway ride cruising at 55mph with collar points slapping you in the neck for half an hour. Made the occasional golf ball sized june bug to the arm more tolerable.

You need to ride through a cloud of Cicada's to really appreciate the OCCASIONAL June Bug

Oh we get cicadas here too, although I haven't been riding long enough to experience a cicada summer on the bike. I'm not looking forward to it.

 

[haircuttergirl]

TIL that if there's a dumbass on the road today, they'll be in front, beside, or tailgating me. As closely as possible. Occasionally they'll swerve towards me just to make my heart skip a beat. And if I park I will get blocked in. If I slow down, someone will pass me and stomp on the brakes. Going with the flow of 10 over? Not fast enough, they'll try to make thongs of themselves by getting all up on my ass.

Drive it like you stole it, Jenn.
Damn.

Here's something you can do with cicadas:

 

[Scruffy]

Bleah... they don't even make decent fish bait around my area...

Got a "garbage gut gourmet" Harley riding friend I might have to feed some of that though...

 

[rufio]

Sounded kinda good until I remembered what cicidas are. Then good turned into effing disgusting.

 

[SONICJK]

Today I learned that two days spent kicking over a 500 single that really hates to start cold leads to a WICKED sore right calf.

 

[SONICJK]

TIL that big singles and gout are not compatible.

HAHA i posted mine without reading yours.
Great minds.

 

[SONICJK]

I think I already learned this one. I think that's why I am now building a small single.

Yup i kicked the SR500 for about 5 minutes, got tired of it and hopped on the 125, started first kick.

 

[Brodie]

YIL that my headlight sucks when it is a really dark night. TIL that my charging system sucks and I hate push starting my bike.

 

[Sonreir]

TIL that necessity truly is the mother of invention.

My need is what to do with two extra XJ750 lumps I just inherited (thanks Shanedalion!). The inventions are too numerous to mention.

 

[DreadRock]

YIL How to time my 500 right !
