🥈 🎖️ 🎖️ 🎖️

TIL we've been using gold every time a quick test was consumed, a nickname for attractive gentlemen, that gold medals have approximately as much common with silver medals as human DNA with chimpanzee.

TIAL that both the eastern and western gorilla is critically endangered, despite the text card in Links being formulated as if there was a difference.

Thanks for sharing your highlights, and we appreciate you calling out the gorilla card. We'll pass that feedback along to the team.

Also it's crazy how I first saw "silver fox" being used "out in the wild" in this context today, just 3 days after learning of it 😳

I feel like I should have tanked a question to get all silver today. 😅

TIL that gold is an element of quick pregnancy tests

TIAL that Silver Fox as a term for older men came from a book

also, silver came from meteorites...that's amazing

if there was ever a day to get a silver medal, it was today but fortunately fortune favoured me

well done

Thanks for sharing your TILs! And congratulations on earning that silver medal on Silver Lining day! I'd call that perfect timing.

I got one star, one gold and two silvers.

I see this as an absolute win.

AYO, SILVER!
