39 ‘Same’ Things That Most People Don’t Know Are Actually Different

One will see you later, the other will see you after a while.

BOTH ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS

But not Ireland. A lot of ppl don't know this

or as we were taught, poisonous: hurts if you bite it, venomous: hurts if it bites you.

:D

Both will spit in your eye.

Both cute

In my language (Swedish) both have the same name but with "land" and "water" at the beginning of the word, like "waterturtle" and "landturtle".

I have never heard of oposumms but they are cute!

had been told 'shrimp' is used more in American English, while 'prawn' is favoured in British English

"All fungi are edible. Some fungi are only edible once." - Terry Pratchett

What is the porpoise of this?

This does not really belong here, does it? A champagne is still a sparkling wine, so technically it is a specialisation, not two thing that are confused but essentially are different.

Their expression say that they are disappointed in you that you didn't know this.

Muffins are a main course and cupcakes are dessert.

Do not tell this to all this alternative right movements who claim that there are certain "people" native to places, and that their intermingling with other "races" will weaken the national identity. We may form nations and e may come from different ethnicies, but we are all humans!

"I never know... What's the difference between a stalagmite and a stalactite?" "Stalagmite has an 'm' in it"

I always remember this because a stalactite holds “tight” to the ceiling.

Tites hang down, like tits. Mites stand up, like mountains.

Were people not taught about these in school? The way I learned how to remember, Stalactites, which have a C in the name, hang from the Ceiling. Stalagmites, which have a G in the name, come up from the Ground.

When the "mites" go up the "tights" go down

When I was little I would say stalagMite (M points up) and stalagTite (T points down)

I was taught that stalactites hang down like tights and stalagmites are ones that mites can crawl up.

C for ceiling, G for ground!

A stalaCtite holds TIGHT to the Ceiling, and a stalaGmite MIGHT one day rise high above the Ground.

Stalactites hold tight to the ceiling, stalagmites might reach it, simple

What's the difference between a stalactite and stalagmite? A stalagmite give you a middle finger.

mite+go+up+tites+come+down

StalaCtite - Ceiling ; stalaGmite - Ground :)

A stalactite has to hang on tight(ly) to the roof or it will fall. A stalagmite might eventually reach the ceiling.

Stalactites cling TITE to the ceiling. Stalagmites MITE reach the ceiling.

I was taught in school stalagmites might reach the ceiling and stalactites hold on tight

"If YOUR stalagmite lasts longer than six hours, please consult your nearest doctor."

I can tell the difference because someone told me stalactites hang down like some titties do :D I never mixed them up since then XD

Tights come down... just like the wearable kind. That’s how I remember

I was always told stalagmites point up like mountains, stalagtites hang down like tits.
