TIL: Today I Learned

[Yeekim]

TIL that Finland is about to get a 34 year-old lady as a PM. Should that happen, all 5 coalition parties shall be led by women, 4 of whom are under 35 years old.

Pretty cool, hope they do well.

Today I learned that horses are Australia's most dangerous animal.

This doesn't seem right at all.
More dangerous than crocodiles? Packs of wild dingoes? White sharks?

 

[hobbsyoyo]

When you kill all the sharks and destroy the habitat of all the crocs...

 

[elmurcis]

Is that from series "Common, that is just a horse! It won't do anything bad, I promise!"? (last words heard for several dozen of people)

They are counting actual deaths by.... so more people interact with horses and die than interact with sharks etc. and die.

I saw a death count chart last night that had crocodile killings at a few zeroes more than horse deaths. But maybe those largely happen in Africa and India.

Today I learned about the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist.

 

[Broken_Erika]

It was certainly a sticky situation............

 

[aimeeandbeatles]

Just as sticky as the Boston Molassacre?

Today I learned about the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist.

I'm rather disappointed it wasn't done by terrorists who'd got the wrong International Strategic Reserve.

 

[The_J]

Why would anyone need a strategic maple syrup reserve o_O?

 

[Lemon Merchant]

In case Quebec separates, of course. They need a base for their new currency.

You can't eat money or gold but can always eat some syrup!

TIL there was very nearly a Super Nintendo-based banking system released in the US from Transdirect. The Japanese got this functionality back with the Famicom.
