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

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

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

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

Where's the fun in that?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (3 children)

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

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

Are diapers clothing? If not, then you are technically allowed to wear diapers containing urine, vomit, or blood.

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

So people that peed themselves?

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

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

alright what one of you peed my pants

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

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

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

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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

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

Pubic or nothing

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

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

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

Technically

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago (4 children)

Just for you, I looked up their rules.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I apologize for not meeting your preferences.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

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

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

Ah, blood too? Damn it

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Most public transit has very similar rules.

The bad thing is rules like this are necessary.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

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

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

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

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

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

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

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

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

What if you took your pants off after?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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