840. Things that make you go "Hmmm" 🤔😅 Life, Laughter & Learning English

Here is a list of curious mysteries, jokes and observations about the English language and life in general. I talk about each interesting point, give some funny comments and explain bits of English vocabulary in the process. Expect to learn a few things, and have a bit of a laugh in the process 🙂.

    The funniest part was when Luke said "cargo comes from the spanish word cargar", but he pronounced cagar instead of cargar. Cagar = to shit.

    Answer - If poison expires, it may become more or less poisonous depending on its constituents. Explanation: Any poison, like medicine, is primarily a chemical compound. The expiration date, which is predetermined, marks a time after which such a chemical compound becomes ineffective or is no longer safe to use.
