I didn't. Are you sure? I've always thought of them like the Lone Ranger and Tonto.

DP. History teacher.

They led a small expeditionary force. So neither a duo or an army.

And York, an enslaved black man, who was never freed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2020/01/12/york-slave-lewis-clark-expedition/

I watched Ken Burns account of Lewis and Clark on PBS years ago. Loved it, until the end when they read Clark's writings on York. You can't give a human being that much freedom and think he's going to go back to being your slave easily. I cried listening to his words of how he tired to beat York back into submission, loaning him off to other plantation owners for money and so they would break him, but never giving him his freedom when he asked or bartered for it to work on the farm where his wife was enslaved. I should have seen this coming.

I honestly never knew this until my husband pointed out a car about to come out of a parking spot in a crowded parking lot. I couldn’t understand how he knew they were about to pull out, and he explained the white reverse lights.

Also that 4-way stops operate in a clockwise fashion. And how to properly use a passing lane.

Wow this all makes me sound like a horrible driver! But I swear I’m not— no accidents since high school.

Is clockwise order in 4-way stops true? I always thought it was based on the order in which cars arrived at the Stop sign.

PP is wrong. 4-way top signs are in the order of who gets there first (but always yield to pedestrians first).

I can't believe how horrible some people are when it comes to driving - how do you not know that white lights mean someone's backing up?!

The title of this thread is “What commonly known thing did you learn at an embarrassingly older age?” The poster did not know about reverse lights. Why are you being nasty about it?

Sort of. If 2 cars arrive at the same time, you yield to the right.

Last night I saw an accident
On the corner of Third and Green
Two cars collided and I got excited
Just being part of that scene
It was Mrs. Tom Walker and her beautiful daughter
Pamela, was driving the car
They got hit by a man in a lite blue sedan
Who had obviously been to a bar
They don't know how lucky they are
They could have run into that tree
Got struck by a bolt of lightning
And raped by a minority
It was a four way stop dilemma
We all arrived the same time
I yielded to the man to the right of me
And he yielded it right back to mine
Well, the yield went around and around and around
Till Pamela finally tried
Just then the man in the light blue sedan
Hit Pamela's passenger side

I assume the drunk man was the guy who didn't take his yield correctly

Whoever posted about the luxury car visor extending out - you have changed my life!

Which did you think was normal? The 9 inches?

This person appears to have thought 9 inches was normal.

I think 7-8 is normal. 5 is not.

6 inches is average. Most guys can manage to stick a ruler way into their abdomen to convince themselves that they’re actually 7 or 8 instead of 6.

PPs must be with small guys. 7 is avg

Google it. Average is in the fives.

Uh... they at least had a Native American guide. We tried to put her face on dollar coins to make them popular. Because, as you know, everyone was familiar with the story.
