Post by: Flannel Boy on June 18, 2009, 03:57:16 PM: My mind was blown today when I learned that someone once believed that k-9s were a dog breed, the official breed of police dogs.

Borys, did you ever feel any cognitive dissonance when you watched the news and saw Labrador Retriever, Belgian Shepherd, or German Shepperd police dogs? Did you say to yourself, "I wonder why they're not using canines?"

Problem is people thought my gamertag was a McDonald's breakfast sandwich reference. I'd like to think its more sing-songy spelled out.

I just learned that "K-9" is a homophone for "canine" (latin for dog). I always thought it was the official name of police dogs breed.

Mind = blown.

:rofl
Title: Re: Things that blew your mind
Post by: Powerslave on June 18, 2009, 07:15:06 PM: I just thought K9 was a nickname for police dogs, not the actual dog breed name itself. Classic Borys.

Post by: cool breeze on June 19, 2009, 04:35:53 AM: On my desktop I have a folder named "My Stuff"; inside that I have a folder named "Other"; inside that I have a folder named "Random".

Um, there is that Garfield dies comic in there, my senior project from years ago (I don't know why since I have a separate school folder), a PDF file you print and fold to make a Green Hill Zone 3D model and a PDF ticket for a concert I went to three years ago.
