When you learn something you find odd, post it here.

I just learned that awhile exists, and it's different from a while.
They can be uses almost interchangeably, but a while needs a preposition before it, while awhile does not.

So did I. I stated the da Vinci thing because my bro said he made a revolver or something. Yes, we are gun fanatics, deal with it.

Maybe later I'll figure out.

That if you have something off about you, people will treat you differently  lol while on the internet if you have something off about you, people think your normal and treat you normal.

Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees, Give a home to the fleas, in my hair
A home for fleas, a hive for the buzzing bees, A nest for birds, there ain't no words
For the beauty, splendor, the wonder of my hair

There are hidden colors that most people in the world can't see. Colors not of the 6 from the rainbow.

There are rare people who have 4 types of cones in their eyes instead of 3, and they're the ones who can see these hidden colors. Usually, when one of us with 3 cones sees one of these secret colors, our brain can't quite comprehend the information of this secret color that's a mix of two colors, so it ignores one color and displays the other.

For example, there's a mix of blue and yellow, but it's not green. It's just not green. It's kind of a bluish-yellow, maybe. But like I said, those of us who only have 3 types of cones can't see it because our brain ignores one color - in this case, the blue - and shows us the other color - yellow. Scientists have been coming up with tricks to be able to try to see these colors.

There is one "secret" color that the majority of people can see, though. It's called pink. The way color is perceived is different from the way physical pieces of color are mixed in paint and such. The way pink is mixed is red and white, but the way that it is perceived by the eyes is red + purple. There are some people who can't perceive certain shades of pink.

This explains that annoying moment when you see pink, but someone else calls it purple!! They can't help it! Their eyes just can't see the pink! There's too much purple in it, so their brain ignores the red part!

I learned, that spiders can be coming off a wall and ceiling fan and keep both intact while the fan is spinning. If you brake the one from the wall, it will still stay on the ceiling fan while it was spinning so, spiders are evil beings that can manipulate fans.  :I
