The Internets are Interesting
For instance, did you know you can make up things and then go looking on the internets and find out that the thing you made up actually exists?
Like a Cactus Peeler.
Yes!

You should try it. (Not the recipe, or the peeler, which you should also try, but I mean make something up and then search online for it and see what it gets you.)
