Reply to TIL about foreign accent syndrome. This is a very rare (~100 cases worldwide) but real medical condition where people abruptly begin speaking in a foreign accent following head trauma like a bad migraine, accident, or stroke. by veety
Buddy of mine just got engaged to his longtime GF. They’re from the Carolinas. Both families are from there too. She started speaking with a British accent when she was a small child and it continues to this day, some 20+ years later. The brain is very weird.

Reply to comment by bolanrox in TIL about the void that forms under certain trees when it snows, called tree wells. The upper branches of the tree prevents snow from falling below it, creating a pocket that is a serious peril for skiers & snow boarders. Several die every year from falling head first into these voids. by Roguecop
Yeah Sonny Bobo, you know every one of my friends whose gone skiing has died.
