That's not a duck talking to a toy clown in my tree.
It's a squirrel.
They don't half make a weird noise for something I always assumed had nothing to say.
gerkins are just pickled cucumbers. I only considered this the other day.

It's not patience, you just can't afford a new patio

My sister is nearly 50 and only just realised that Amex was short for American Express.
I was in my 50s before I realised that a sous chef didn't make sous
That the Yamaha logo is three tuning forks.
Daffy
Wotsits are bloody amazing!
You should try eating a bag of Giant Wotsits while driving back from a ride, having run out of drink. The way they gum up your mouth is quite an experience! 😆
Red, green, yellow and orange peppers are the same thing in different states of ripeness.
I felt even more thick than normal when this reality was gifted to me a few years ago.

The giant ones go AMAZING with red wine, but as you've discovered you end up drinking A LOT as they only come in big bags, and who's going to stop part way through one?!

The Garmin logo incorporates an arrow pointing north above the N (representing a compass).
I stopped at a shop to buy a drink and looked in the bag - there were 2 left 😀

And pink pepper corns aren't really peppercorns. They're berries from a tree as opposed to pepper corns which are drupes from a vine.
Like Peppers - Green and Black Olives are the same thing just different levels of ripeness :o)
That people don't understand that all creatures have senses and emotions, no matter how primitive. We and they all feel fear, desire, jealousy, pain, humility, gratitude etc....
Raisins are grapes...

But not Conservatives, right? They definitely don't appear to feel some of those things...
That people vote Tory in spite of Tories being utter ****s.

Depends on the type of pepper - orange spice go from green to orange, thats it.
Purple Prince are just purple.

Although I have just looked futher into this and it seems that bell peppers are a different genus; Piper, and chilli peppers are "Capsicum".
So I am wrong, which came as a supprise.
Aerofoils do not work by increasing the distance and thusly the speed of air (and thereby lowering the pressure) above the shape. The difference in pressure is caused by the curvature itself not the additional distance

Have you ever tried humiliating a cat? (I accidentally shoved my finger in my cat's mouth yesterday, as I picked him up. He looked mildly surprised, his standard expression.)
I only realised recently the Breakfast was about Breaking a Fast
I was also well into my 30's before I realised that the person dressed up as Santa at my primary school each Christmas was my Granddad. (obviously I knew he wasn't actual Santa)

But is it the pressure difference which creates the lift, or is the the vector of the deflected air which causes thrust?
Does anyone else have that occasional -WTF- about balancing on a two wheeled vehicle? You know where you actually start to think about the mechanics of it, about how your body mostly does the actual work of keeping the mass centred on the wheels, while you think about other shit...At the same time!

Worrying that you were still in primary school in your 30s. Surely they could have arranged a bit of learning support so you could pass the end of year exams?

Well I'll be frank, I, like your cat no doubt, was also midly surprised and decidedly happy that the word "mouth" appeared when it did in that paragraph.

You're a wally

I'm all for respecting other creatures and realising that human's aren't necessarily 'special' within nature, but an amoeba feels humility? Are you sure?
The word ‘albeit’.
The word ‘albeit'
This. For years I pronounced it as if it were a French word 😁
That the word spelt Ceilidh is the same word as the one pronounced kayley
Took me decades to work that one out
A return train ticket Derby to London doesn't necessarily return from the same station that you arrived at.
Cue sprint from Euston to kings cross only to narrowly miss my train, after sitting in the bar for an hour as I'd arrived early.

I’ve only just learned this minute tha Yamaha has a logo. Had to look it up ….. never noticed it before.

Normally shortly before I fall off.
While I’m quite content with the idea that the earth is round I was quite surprised that the solar system is flat. I always assumed that the various planet orbits were depicted as being on the same plane for ease of representation. That an Orrery was a a sort of schematic because the mechanical impracticality of showing orbits in different planes.
so when it became apparent that’s how they actually are all , more or less, on one plane I was really surprised that Flat Earthers don’t make a bigger fuss about it.

tchotchke the Yiddish word for a small mantelpiece bric-a-brac is pronounced; chotch-ka
That the dots in a divides sign are holding places for the number of the calculation.
I don't understand that.
Viscount biscuits taste rubbish now they are no longer round but rectangular, then again I like sliced cheddar but don't like the same stuff grated

Even more surprising is that you usually arrive at and depart from St Pancras...
