Today I Learned

What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

TIL I've been breaking their rules for years

[–] tanisnikana 22 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Just for you, I looked up their rules.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 day ago

Most public transit has very similar rules.

The bad thing is rules like this are necessary.

[–] Dicska 1 points 22 hours ago

Does it mean Donald Trump wearing diapers can't enter the metro?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Please don't post pictures of text. Copy and paste it. And link to it.

[–] tanisnikana 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I apologize for not meeting your preferences.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

For not meeting the rules of the community and accessibly requirements of the Internet*

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Ah, blood too? Damn it

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Why confess to the internet that you pissed your pants in a public place?

[–] Iheartcheese 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Dude just told on himself forever. I hope he becomes famous and this Post haunts him

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Ah, technically. So is there a loophole? Just asking for a friend...

[–] Stovetop 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're fine if someone else pees on your pants.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I said "technically" because it's based on a rule that is probably intended to ban extremely stinky unhygienic people

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

So people that peed themselves?

[–] edgemaster72 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So how long do you have to wait, cuz I... I mean, people, have places to be.

[–] doughless 4 points 1 day ago

Just toss your pants and underwear in the nearest trash bin. Problem solved!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

alright what one of you peed my pants

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

That's why I always pee on someone else's pants

[–] FlyingSquid 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I hear you get to ride on New York subways for free if you do that while publicly masturbating.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

actually, they'll shoot you. And the officer that shot you will then shoot another officer. And then the corrupt mayor will go in TV to celebrate the cops that shot an unarmed man, making it sound like the cop that was shot was a hero who wasn't shot by the other bastard cop.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Do they have areas for private masturbating on the New York subway?

[–] FlyingSquid 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's public or nothing. Hence all the public masturbating.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Pubic or nothing

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Well I mean if they're not giving out wank screens that's on them

[–] ivanafterall 4 points 1 day ago

Technically

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 4 points 1 day ago

What if you took your pants off after?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

No, officer, I peed my pants after I got on the train, see?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Where's the fun in that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I'm still sittin' in ma dirty pee pants!
