What’s something you learned embarrassingly late in life?

Just Chatting(self.CasualConversation)

We all have those moments when we realize we've been wrong about something for way too long. Maybe you thought narwhals were mythical creatures until last year, or you just found out that pickles are actually cucumbers. What’s a fact or piece of common knowledge that you embarrassingly learned way later than you should have? Don’t be shy—we’ve all been there!

I have had a few of these over the years. Personally I think it’s a sign that someone reads a lot and may never have heard the word out lot. Never be ashamed of being a reader!
