What have you just realized that everyone else noticed?

For me I just realized that Andre the giant was French. That might explain why he didn’t communicate in English well.

The FedEx logo has an arrow in it. Actually, I noticed this a while ago but in any case I was way behind at that point, too.

That George Harrison was brutally beaten and stabbed. For some reason or another, I never read up Harrison’s personal life. But I knew a lot about Lennon and McCartney’s.

@rockfan I didn’t know that. When?

Well, that and the fact that he was drunk pretty much every waking moment.

My screen name for the first social networking site I signed up for, Wis.dm, was DutchCat. A nod to me being Dutch and I love cats.
Then a kid from Wis.dm suggested “Dutchess” as a screen name. I didn’t have spell check at the time. Then I found spell check, about a year later, and it was at that point I realized it was misspelled! I said something to him and he just shook his head, and said that was part of it. He thought he was clever. I think so too, but it took me a year to get the joke! smh.

I’m not sure where you get your information from @rockfan but George Harrison died from lung cancer 29 November, 2001.

He didn’t say it killed him @Adagio, but he was stabbed in the chest by an intruder in his house in 1999. He also suffered other less serious stab wounds.

@rockfan and @Dutchess_lll Apologies, I misinterpreted what you wrote entirely.

SergeantQueen's avatar

@Dutchess_III Wait how is “Dutchess” a misspelling? I googled it and it was right

Please don’t tell anyone…. I did not know there were 2 Fergies! I knew of the Duchess Fergie but not the singer!
Apparently I live under a rock.

@SergeantQueen “Duchess” is the correct spelling for an actual “Duchess of Windsor,” or whatever. However, I have noticed that someone other than me has used “Dutchess” as their screen name. When I got to sign up for something “Dutchess” almost always has been already taken.

Ohhh. When I looked it up I got Dutchess county in NY

That i grow a rather splendid erection when Carstairs enters the room, he, apparently, noticed a long time ago but fear of being fired kept his lips sealed which is just as well all things considered…

That “Pop Secret” popcorn is a play on the words “Top Secret,” “Chips Ahoy” is a play on the words “Ship Ahoy,” and New Year’s Day is exactly one week after Christmas.

dxs's avatar

@furious_rose “Pop Secret.” That one went over my head too, but now that I see it I can’t unsee it! What’s the use in naming pop corn after “top secret” though?
Why not I suppose…?

The name is easy to say, easy to remember and it catches the eye. That’s an invaluable trait for brand recognition.
