ok so that post office scam thread was hilarious, and i think it deserves its own thread.

until like 4th grade, i thought it was bading suit, not bathing suit.
and until like 2 years ago, i thought mild meant medium

anyone else got their stories?

i thought it was roman coke, and that to make a roman coke, you needed soda, and alcohol.  i learned i was wrong when i was 14 and mixed rootbeer and tequila in a soda bottle to make one and get drunk for the first time.

It means astonished,  you've really never heard anyone say  "I was floored"?    Maybe its a regional thing.

I always had a personal theory that monica lewinski had sex with bill clinton because she just wanted to secretly have the presidents son. I had had no idea what oral sex was at the time.It wasnt until a few years ago that i found out why there was no child involved
