What did you learn today? Share it with us!

We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**



Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.

Saw it when looking up Scrubs on the IMDB.

Bonus Scrubs fact: It was filmed in a real, but closed, hospital called the University Medical Center in North Hollywood. We lived in North Hollywood and drove by it all the time and, for years, thought it was the closest hospital to us. We didn't know it was where Scrubs was being filmed. You'd think they would have taken down the sign or put up a banner that said it was closed or something, but nope. We're just lucky we never thought there was an emergency and we didn't have time for an ambulance. I learned later that people had tried to get to their ER more than once later on.

It was DUI that resulted in a death, so idk if I'd say that actually makes him crazy.

Sentenced to 5 years, out in one for excellent behaviour. I agree.

Manslaughter is accidental homicide. Think less "crazy" and more "DUI".

[–] Maalus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

DUIs shouldn't be classified as accidental. You made a choice to drive under the influence.

Hooch is crazy is one of the best running gags ever.

I realized after posting a Bob Kelso pic in another thread that I never showed my daughter Scrubs and so I set about acquiring the first season and was reading the trivia on the IMDB and couldn't stop laughing after I read that.

In case you haven't heard of it, the scrubs rewatch podcast with Zach braff and Donald faison is pretty great and has a lot of behind the scenes info

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I haven't! I need to check that out, thanks!

If you're a fan of Scrubs, Donald Faison and Zach Braff started a watch along podcast on Spotify called Fake Doctors, Real Friends.
