It really doesnt seen like it should be but it is. I tested it. This might seem obvious to some people but I was so shocked

For 37 years I've been putting new pillows still in their pillow cases inside of older pillow cases that I had left over.

All of my previous pillow cases were never the kind with zippers, they were just the sheet like material with an opening. So when I got new pillows and noticed there were zippers on them, I always just assumed that was just to get to the pillow "stuffing" or whatever.

My husband informed me today that you’re supposed to blow on the front of a pinwheel, not the side, to see the design spin in front of you. I had no clue you could blow them from the front.

AFAB who grew out my leg hair the last few weeks for the first time since I was probably 12.

Was walking up the driveway a few days ago and felt the strangest sensation on my legs, like spiderwebs on both sides. Realized it was my leg hair moving in the wind. Weird but not unpleasant.

Today it must have reached a new level of long, because as I walk around the house it feels like there is static electricity on my legs all day! It’s similar to when a staticky shirt moves my arm hair in the winter, but this is just the air moving past my legs as I walk.

It’s so weird!! I have never heard anyone talk about how leg hair feels!! Do you all go around like this all day? Will I have to shave it to get rid of the sensation or does it fade?

I was watching tv and saw two girls walking away, one with a pony tail swinging side by side and one without.

I asked my wife and she smiled and said it's a female super power.

I knew what they both were but I thought they had some kind of correlation

My whole life, I've been absolutely baffled that such complex dreams, detailed story lines can only last 9 seconds. Idk if you heard this when you were younger, but for over 20 years I thought this was true.

Last night I had such wild dreams, I was like this can't just be only 9 seconds.

I looked it up, did some research, and here is what I found

Actual Dream Length

Duration: Dreams usually last between 5 to 30 minutes .

Progression: The first dream of the night is typically short (around 5 to 10 minutes), while dreams later in the morning can stretch up to an hour .

Total Time: In total, the average person spends about two hours dreaming each night, cycling through multiple dreams.

Wild, but also somehow terrifying idk

It was 2AM when wondered how to make banana flavored pudding so I looked it up but instead I got the dessert. But the dessert looks good so i got side quested. I looked at one of the recipes and it said vanilla pudding. I was like “what? Since when” So I looked at other suggested Banana Pudding recipes and yeah they all use vanilla pudding. It’s called banana pudding why not use banana pudding?
