You know that moment when everyone thinks you’re stupid because you didn’t know some trivial fact? Well to save you from that I thought I’d list a few things that you’re just “supposed to know” from birth:
- “Pop” music is actually short for popular music, so in reality could be classed as anything.
- Flo-Rida the rapper’s name is just Florida, the state, pronounced differently. “Will I am” is a play on the name “William” and The Rolling Stones taken literally means Rock and Roll
- The “Space Raiders” crisps are meant to resemble the alien’s faces
- Apt is a short version of appropriate
- Flu and influenza are the same thing
- WC stands for Water closet
- In the UK, number plates on cars are yellow on the front and white on the back
- “codger” is a merging of coffin dodger
