That word confused me like crazy when I was a kid and saw it next to Yosemite Sam.

Ha. The difference is when I hear it, I'm spelling it as "Flow Ryda." No wonder I never saw it.

In fact, part of me thinks I used to believe it was "Flow Ryder" and the rapper just didn't know how to say his R's.

Just found out the woman that does the voice of Hayley on American Dad is Seth MacFarlane's sister.

Realized when I was playing with my daughter yesterday that the Humpty Dumpty song never acknowledges that he was an egg.

Didn't know what to tell her, lol

Re: Things that you took you way too long to realize....
Ok there is no way I am the only one with this...

It took me until like last year (age 18) to finally get the "former vs latter" phrase.

For example. "If given the choice between Rodgers and Geno, I would take the former." I used to have to think about it, then finally get it based on the context clues. Like obviously its Rodgers...

Maybe I was the only one... Don't judge me lol
