I have a weird memory quirk where I cannot remember my locker number. I can remember it's location though. I have found a way to remember my number though. Say my locker is "25." I'll think to myself before leaving, "Square root of 25 is 5." Then when I am in the locker room I'll be like, "square root of 25, oh yeah!" Or like today I had 23 and though, "The Number 23...". Anyway, that seems to really help me commit the number to memory.
I finally learned why "Eskimo" (Esquimaux) is considered pejorative. It's considered to mean "eaters of raw meat". Though there seem to be two other unoffensive possible meanings: "snowshoe netter" and "people who speak a different language".
Don't get me started on pointless and random hockey knowledge. I know most of it from how many points a player got in a given year (unless it's an obscure player) and what arenas each team plays at barring a few in the East.
On that note, today I learned that when my cat scratches me accidentally, my skin gets irritated.

Yeah "eaters of raw meat" is so offensive because they never... oh wait.
Actually I don't know if they ever eat raw meat. And I've been saying Inuit in the last years.
A few weeks ago I learned that the often used term 'horeca' is short for hotel, restaurant and café. It's only used in Holland though.

Just learned that it's not easy to give yourself an even mohawk. Usually try it halfheartedly whenever I shave my head. This time actually tried...and yeah, bald again.
The Eskimos are like the Amish. I'll stop making fun of them when they get computers and Internet in their igloos.
(They have electricity) But shh it's a secret.

Sometimes as long as 2 ft, fossilized bacula (penis bones) are often polished and used as a handle for knives and other tools. They're frequently sold as souvenirs to tourists by Alaska Natives, the only people permitted to hunt the walrus today.
...seems like everything I learn now has to do with Inuits.
Interesting.
Quote:
The evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins speculated in 2006 that the loss of the bone in humans, when it is present in our nearest related species the chimpanzee, is a result of sexual selection by females looking for signs of good health in prospective mates. The reliance of the human penis solely on hydraulic means to achieve a rigid state makes it particularly vulnerable to blood pressure variation. Poor erectile function betrays not only physical states such as diabetes and neurological disorders but mental states such as stress and depression.
A magic cross piercing is when two piercings form a cross through the glans of the penis.
I discovered I'm not the only dutch one who's going to see Marit Larsen in Köln, Germany! There's another guy I know. So at least we can travel together.
