That teenager is teenager because thirTEEN, fourTEEN, ... eighTEEN, nineTEEN. I still cringe at my statement of "but teenager is such a vague word..when does one become a teenager? 12? 13?" in a debate.
Also fell victim to the idea that pickles were vegetables in their own right (not pickled cucumbers). Then my immediate thought was that pickling cucumbers was terrible inefficient considering how much they shrunk in the vinegar (from supermarket cucumber size to gherkins).
That Liv Tyler is Steve Tyler's daughter.

I only worked out yesterday that 'ymmv' stands for 'your mileage may vary' rather than 'your meat, my veg'

I just realised that Yodas face is a caricature of Alec Guinness's. Is that well known?

Not only is it not well known, it's not true.

I only recently learned that Gary Lewis is the son of Jerry Lewis. TBF, the music of Gary Lewis & the Playboys is not a thing I've ever had a conversation about with anyone ever so I'm not particularly surprised that his family ties have never come up.

I'm certainly seeing a marked similaroty between the face of Yoda and that of Alec Guinnness. https://www.cheatsheet.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Yoda-in-Star-Wars-The-Empire-Strikes-Back.jpg" class="noborder">https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQjGYry1p_Yg_3DXOOVr0fCkHpSSLlvpq_vvfLUrl6jQucf2HOMhttps://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQKbJOTzfdrupDbNza-15oiF7L-D0-HXssSXAg6o7SNvj6HcjQ52wnoticed it even more in the backdrop they had in one section ofThe Galaxy Britain Built where it looked slike Alec Guiness's face looking out from Yoda's bdy.
I assumed the similarity was an in joke from the production team. I'm certainly seeing a great similarity around the eyes. I was just surprised when I saw it that I hadn't noticed it before.I now can't find the picture they used in that programme but it was towards the end.So was wondering if it was something that had been remarked on much before.I can't unsee it now that I've noticed it.

Spanish words ending in '_idad' are very often the same in English except you swap it with '-ity', so 'navidad/nativity, universidad/University. Therefore Trinidad is simply Trinity
