    Today I learned that discombooberated‎ and cannonaded were in fairly regular usage in the late 50s to early 60s. I was recently watching The Twilight Zone, and I went, huh, what? How did I miss that?

    TIL, most electrical outlets have built in wire strippers for 12 and 14 gauge wire. Some also have a small hole so you can make the correct bend on the wire to attach to the terminal. This information comes about 500 outlets too late.
