Reply to TIL breathing into a paper bag to ease anxiety attacks is a real thing, with science to back it up, and not just something seen on TV/Movies. by OneSideDone
It also works if you pretend you have an imaginary bag. It's hard to explain to the people watching though.

Reply to comment by SkylightFlow in TIL that Koreans have had heated floor technology since at least 1,000 B.C.E. by Nice-Violinist-6395
If a Korean is wearing shoes in anyones home where there isnt some kind of emergency or moving going on, it means
- He is there breaking a law.
- He is batshit crazy.
Koreans take no shoes in a home rule more seriously than religion.

Another interesting fact: if you ever see a Korean inside his own house wearing shoes, run.

Reply to TIL If Coca-Cola's inventor had decided to file a patent application in 1892 instead of keeping the recipe a secret, patent protection would have expired long before Pepsi ever came onto the market in 1965. Patent protection lasts 20 years at most. Trade secrets can last forever. by ethereal3xp
I thought we had enough science to figure this stuff out in a lab or something
