I just recently found out that the drumstick chicken wings are made from the upper extremities of the chicken and not the legs.

By upper extremities do you mean the wing?

Yes, the "arms" of the chicken. Always thought the flat pieces were from the arms and the drumstick pieces were from the legs of small chickens. And that the dish as a whole was just referred to as "wings".

I feel there is still confusion. The wings are the wings. The drumsticks are the legs. GIS seems to confirm this, so I'm not sure what's going on here. I also don't know what "drumstick chicken wings" actually refers to, though.

Chicken wings that you buy at the pub come in two general shapes, one kind of flat and one kind of round. The rounder ones are being thought of as "drumstick chicken wings".

I thought baby back ribs were beef and came from baby cows until about a week ago.

When I was a little kid, I used to think every base in baseball had a gun underneath it because of Naked Gun where Reggie Jackson gets a gun from under the base to shoot the queen

Not mine, but I'm guessing eventually a girl's embarrassing moment.

I used to coach fast pitch softball at the local high school/junior high and this 8th grade girl kept saying the word "camel toe." This was the conversation I had with her after she said it a few times.

me: Amanda don't use words that you don't know what they mean.
Amanda: I know what it means.
me: what does it mean?
Amanda: It's part of a song.

I imagine after she finally did learn what it meant she felt pretty stupid. Maybe she never found out, she didn't turn the pages very fast.

I've got one.

I grew up in Northeast Massachusetts. It's cold there for a good chunk of time each year.

In the winter when you first start up the car and get going, you can clearly see the exhaust coming out of the tail pipe.

As a kid, I used to think the exhaust - the smoke - was pushing the car along to get it to move... the same way a child would push a toy car to get it moving.

I don't know how old I was before I realized this was pure folly.

Might have had one of these recently.

Was out drinking with some friends, and for whatever reason, got onto a complaint about a pair of boxers I bought recently that don't have the traditional hole at the front. None of the other guys appeared to consider this an issue. Further conversation lead to the discovery that I was the only one in the group who pissed by putting my dick through the boxer hole and an unzipped fly. Everyone else unbuckled their belt, undid their trousers, pulled their boxers down slightly and pissed 'over the top', so to speak. General consensus was that I was weird for using boxers correctly in the way they're meant to be used.

Am...am I the weird one here? Didn't even consider the other method as an option, but even after thinking about it I can't work out why you'd do that, which takes more time, is more fiddly, and requires both hands, over just unzipping and going through the hole. Genuinely thought I was normal, and I'm still not totally convinced I'm not.

There was a thread on this. It was very much like the sit or stand to wipe thread.

I go through the hole almost always. Sometimes I go through the leg!

Writing replies to threads on internet forums, sometimes really long and detailed, but when finished - deciding not to post them. I do this at least 10% of the time. There is no way to figure out if this is normal without posting in this thread and potentially becoming embarrassed.
