I find it hard to believe people actually prefer white “chocolate” to real chocolate.
They haven't learned to appreciate bitter food yet.

we owe Chong for the Wolf of Wall Street
Chong served his sentence at the Taft Correctional Institution from October 8, 2003, to July 7, 2004. He was a cellmate-or "celly"—with "The Wolf of Wall Street" Jordan Belfort, and he is given credit for encouraging Belfort to write his memoirs. They have remained friends ever since.[29]

there’s a mineral named, by geologists, “cummingtonite”. Saw it at a Museum of Geology

I just looked up the name. Apparently it was originally discovered in Cummington Massachusetts. Still though


also it has a hardness of 5-6 ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

AC/DC's Brian Johnson was a member of the 1st Parachute Regiment, Territorial Army. He signed up to earn some extra money to buy a PA system for his first band. Got the red beret and jump wings and everything.
