This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I made a website that tells you, based on the year you graduated high school, what your school (probably) got wrong! (yourschoolgotwrong.com)

I graduated in the 2000's and the only falsehood from this list I remember being taught was the one about taste buds.

Yea I feel like a lot of these came from friends or other sources, and not necessarily from school.

I have definitely been told by nurses to tilt my head back if I had a nose bleed.

Honestly I don't recall my schools ever having a "school nurse". I assume most of the teachers were trained in first aid. I went to school in Ontario. Are school nurses an American thing?
