I do so much learning there. Ummm I had a real one but I browsed tvtropes for a while and forgot. My bad. :no:

Hey wait http://www.howstuffworks.com/ has loads of cool things on it. Not sure if that's the sort of thing you're on about, but you can learn plenty cool things, mainly in the science bit (I've never read anything from anywhere else on the site...).
