Things that you thought you knew, that were wrong your whole life.

what is wrong with all of you people regarding Disney? I mean-- didn't you recognize that Disney, would have "Disney" on their items? Not Gisney, Digney, or Disnep? Didn't you recognize how that didn't make sense?

I wouldn't go to a Toyota dealership, and a buy a new toyota, and think that the cursive on the back said "Topota"...even if it was a blatant "p"-- I'd go inside and be like..."why does your 'y' look like a 'p'? I would understand that no matter what it slightly resembled, it more than likely says Toyota for God sakes.

I knew it said Disney, I just never saw that "D" as a D.
 
I always thought the phrase was "play it by year" like lets play it by year-

Then I find out its " play it by ear" I'm like …damn well that makes no sense then

I only just found out that my family has been screwing with me my whole life and that jackalopes are in fact, not real.

And I'm bummed as hell.

that all dogs are boys and all cats are girls. I mean i sorted this out when i was like 10 but still quite late to the party
 
the song that sings "help me Rhonda help help me Rhonda, get her out of my heart". I always used to sing "get her out of my yard"
 
The first few times I listened to the song "all star" by smash mouth I thought he was saying "She was looking kind of dumb, with her finger in her bum, and the shape of an 'L' on her forehead"

but it was actually "She was looking kind of dumb, with her finger and her thumb in the shape of an 'L' on her forehead"

From time to time I still think about my version when I listen to the song and laugh.
 
I just realized that I didn't always know that Michael Jackson was black. Being born in the late 80s with immigrant parents, the Jackson 5 was not something that was really made available to me. I was terribly confused for a while after I found out...
 
I went the longest time spelling it "Seperate" when using it as an adjective and Separate when using it as a verb.

No. It's always separate.
 
I just found out money laundering isn't actually laundering money... I thought it was like cleaning blood and drugs off
 
On cereal boxes, it's not "englared to show detail" - it's "enlarged to show detail."

Realized this when I was maybe 15 or 16. I think I read it like that when I was young and didn't realize the englared isn't a word so I didn't think much of it and then didn't think about it for years, even though I'd see it nearly every day.
