Americans weren't discovered in the 15th C. That's only when the European colonisation started.
Women and high heels are an amazing combo. They make the legs and calves look even better than when in flats! Nylons and heels 👠 a must. 😊 They, along with nylons, are the epitome of femininity, something badly needed these days. Of course, they shouldn't be worm all the time, but...
Neckbeards took it from us.
Best looking hat to me is the Fedora.
Men don't wear fedora hats because they look like fedora hats.
Hats on then off then on again to the simplicity of stylish ways the Fedora exemplifies.
JFK.
Folk lore has it that hat sales tanked when JFK was seen not wearing a hat on a regular basis
Bring em' Back!

Cats eyes where invented in 1934 in the UK. Botts dots are really inactive cats eyes and are actively developed only in 1953 (they did some investigation in 1936, I'm guessing because of cats eyes). So I'd say the inventors of cats eyes, Percy Shaw, deserves credit here.
Why don't they just do away with the single use throwaway single use battery and have Power banks to power to power gadgets
copper wire was invented by two Jewish guys fighting over a penny

Kinda skipped over the part where in the early 1900s Rockafella started packaging food, using it as a method of 'disposing' of waste products from his petro-chemical manufacturing by adding them as 'preservatives, additives or colors'. Of course he serendipitously found yet another form of controling the masses, just as psychology replaced slavery, now chemical 'soft kill lobotomy' combined with this to give us 'woke bleach drinker conservative child sniffer democracy'.
That's interesting!
Cool
