They said that you learn something new every day..

[slackwarelinux]

Today I learned that burnt toast tastes like Ritz crackers.

Has anyone else on ATOT discovered anything today? Discuss.

coincidentally, putting cheddar cheese on a frying pan and essentially burning it (till it's brown, not black) tastes like cheezits.

My GPS unit doesnt get a signal inside of my office.

So...it will flood once every 500 years? Not so bad...

What did I learn today?

Customer service is dead at 99% of US companies, but NOT at Parts Express. I had a problem with an order today and a CSR contacted me via email within 30 minutes! :Q How's that for fast?

We got it all worked out and I'm happy. Very, very happy with P.E. and their customer service. Not the first time I've had a positive experience w/them either. Had another about two years ago.

 

[Queasy]

That it is going to be a tough decision for me to choose between a BA position and a QA Team lead position.

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

Just because they couldn't hear it doesn't mean they couldn't smell it.

 

[sixone]

I learned that Braums Peach Frozen Yogurt isn't as good as I remembered.

 

[compuwiz1]

Today I have learned that some people will post just about anything.

 

[blazerazor]

I learn alot more than one thing on most days, ...its just the recalling part I sometimes find difficult.

 

[Kwaipie]

I learned that when the group of people you go to lunch with once a week happens and the person whose turn it is to buy can't make it, someone else (me) has to pony up the cash.

if you sprinkle the cheese chunks with garlic, salt and a bit o pepper then bake them at 400 or so for about 5 min they taste like goldfish

Are you serious? :Q
I am going to have to try that.

 

[arrfep]

I learned that Costco is actually kind of overpriced

 

[Sphexi]

Today I learned that Entourage is a wicked funny ass show. WICKED funny.

 

[TheNinja]

I learned that I need to be tactfully more forceful at work. In the long run it will make both me and the customer happy. Instead of them telling me what they think they need, I will have them tell me what they plan to do with the equipment and then I will tell them what they need.

 

[imported_Tick]

Today I learned that Soul Rippers suck, and I should build MonkeyLords instead.

 

[us3rnotfound]

Today I learned that it's easier to beg for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission.

 

[tasmanian]

I learned that school is a waste of time.

 

[SmoochyTX]

I need to speak up more often.

 

[Ricemarine]

Why I'm glad I found a street that goes parallel to I-5 northbound.

Sucks for the driver though...

 

[everman]

A hot dog and a 20oz drink (with refills) at Costco is $1.62 after tax.

hey me too! ok since you stole mine, today I learned that although Chase sent me a letter that I received yesterday, that said my savings account was going inactive within 2 months, that it was already inactive. So I had to activate it today, then call to close that thing again tomorrow..yay

 

[Martin]

I practiced level 1, unit 3 of Rosetta Stone Spanish. My vocabulary is at ~350 words, so I have a loooooong way to go...

 

[Superrock]

Today I learned that there are waay too many types of Digital Photo Frames and that I will wait until one type becomes a dominate type and silly things like subscriptions and useless features will boil down to affordability, quality, and useful features.

Basically, the concept is still new and developing so it'll probably get better in a few years from now.
