Laugh and the world laughs with you, or more possibly at you.
I can’t resist sharing this Mumsnet thread, hope it makes you laugh like I did
Things I only realised late into adulthood:
- That capers aren’t tiny fish
- That Iraq is not a place between Birmingham and Wales
- That ducks can fly
- That Casablanca is a real place, not just created for the film. Like Narnia or Westeros.
- That worthless doesn’t mean the same thing as priceless!
- I thought Freddy Flintoff and Andrew Flintoff were brothers
- That Pakistan is not the capital of India
- That broccoli doesn’t grow on trees
- That a killer whale is part of the dolphin family and not a whale
- That seahorses are not mythical creatures
- That badgers are real
- That Pennsylvania is not a fictional place where vampires come from
- That the potato comes from South America, not England
- That Portsmouth is an island
- That penguins aren’t 6ft tall
- That pineapples grow on the ground
- That marrows are big courgettes
