For real. Everytime I get in the shower I end up having to point the showerhead away and cower from the cold water and I could have just turned it on first?

For me it was about 5 years ago, I'm over 30, realizing that my parents and extended family lied to me about watermelon seeds growing in your stomach.

It was just so ingrained in me as a child that it took more than 20 years for me to question it.

Watermelon is so much easier to eat now.

I learned recently that your can cut the two vertices that form the base of triangle watermelon slices (so that the slice becomes a top-heavy pentagon) so that they don't collide with people's cheeks when they eat them. You can do it on quater-wedges before you make them into individual slices.

It's seems so obvious but none of the adults around me did it growing up, lol.
