In the past week, I’ve learned 

  • my username in Gobblefunk (today) 
  • George played B7 instead of B in My Sweet Lord (today) 
  • ‘Harrisonette’ is quite possibly the scariest puppet ever made (today) 
  • Acrostic poems are not as hard to write as you might think (today) 
  • David Bowie had odd eyes (three days ago) 
  • David Bowie was odd, period ahdn_paul_01 (three days ago) 
  • the chords to ‘Breathe’ and ‘Time’ (four or five days ago) 
  • Division Bell is more awesome than I remembered (last week)

I learnt that you can differentiate cyclohexene and cyclohexane by adding potassium permanganate or bromine water. Cyclohexene will go colourless.

I learned that Rising Sun isn’t as knotty complexicated as it sounds. The verses are just D, Gm, over and over.

He was a bit naughty so I was listened to his explanation and look straight to his eyes and I calm down after I heard his side so he didn’t get a POINK!

I’m learning the ukelele chords to ‘Devil And The Deep Blue Sea’ 

only instead of playing a ukelele, I’ve capo’d my guitar on the fifth fret and muted the 5th and 6th strings with a bit of yarn a-hard-days-night-john-6

It also means ‘because’ in Irish.

 

Pardon for the double post.

Apparently you can drive a manual car without using the clutch

Wouldn’t recommend it though…

If I did that my instructor would ban me from his car.

I learnt that you can mention someone in a BB post, remove the mention and the mention still exists! Spooky….

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

Yep, ’tis one of the secret magic tricks that only hardcore BBers know*. a-hard-days-night-george-10 It seems mentions aren’t affected by edits. Once a post is saved, with or without a mention, it’s saved that way… *dramatic narrator-voice* for eternity… Mentions don’t work in edits. Alas. a-hard-days-night-paul-10

Here’s a fun fact. There is a secret part of the forum that doesn’t have anything in it really.

A nickname for Boston is “The Hub”. Imagine having a conversation with someone and they refer to Boston as that….

“Hey, where do you live?”

“The hub”

“Where?”

“……..Boston………”

“oh…….”

The funny thing is is that it’s not even difficult to drive with a clutch bar the first 500 hundred times when it cuts out on you a-hard-days-night-paul-7
