Reply to TIL Frank Sinatra was convinced that Johnny Fontane, a singer with mob associations, in Mario Puzo's novel The Godfather was based on his life leading Sinatra to shout abuse and threaten physical violence when he met Puzo at a restaurant. by trifletruffles
Yeah, but wasn't he? So it's not just "convinced", but "correctly understood"?

I read that the French police used to be allowed beer at lunch (until somebody got totally unpredictably and accidentally shot or something a few years ago, I seem to remember) so if the same was the rule in Italy, maybe that's the joke?

Reply to comment by April_Spring_1982 in TIL that beans are banned in Spacecraft because they can produce "1-3 cups of flatus" in an environment where there are no windows by April_Spring_1982
I mean, I'll try!
But gases also famously expand to fill all available space, and in weightlessness aren't held down by gravity, so an open-top "cup" doesn't really work very intuitively as a measuring device for gas. Now a medium-sized balloon, or 200ml, I'd understand
