    Something that doesn't really matter but it would have been good to know.
    For me right now it would be that if the unlock button on the key to a mini is held down the windows drop. Had the keys in my pocket all yesterday and went to bed completely oblivious to the buckets of rain falling into my car. I assume it was pressed while in my pocket. The cars drying out right now...

    I would like to have known anti-depressants were going to cause me to put on 2 stone before I started taking them :(

    I would have liked to know why Jacques Louis Macie bequeathed his eventual fortune (after his death) to America rather than his home country!
    The question remains unanswered for many but its legacy greatly lives on.

    You can search a word document using "find" or an internet page by holding Ctrl + F

    How did I only realise that at the end of my thesis

    <lulz: clarification I do video editing and avoid word like the plague>

    I found out recently that if you type *#0000# into your phone it tells you when it was made and other things.

    Even if I lost three stone, I'd still look like me beneath the fat. Unfortunately.

    Jesus Pandas are an evolutionary cul-de-sac. It's like they all want to die. No offense to Gummy Pandas... They're a highly articulate and dangerously tech savvy breed...

    That I was right not to worry about my Leaving Cert and dropping out of a course I had zero interest in and instead enjoy my life-still got to study and follow my chosen career path and all the travelling and life experiences really helped :)
