There have been a few instances where I felt like I was the last one to know something/had NO idea about something and felt pretty stupid about it. Has anything like that happened to you?

My examples:

I had no idea, until I was 19, that if you keep a car/vehicle running in a closed space (garage) that you can die by being in the car/enclosed space.

I had no idea that saying something like "time to assassinate the president" or "we should kill the president" was against the law and could get you in MAJOR trouble.

I felt like I was the last person to know that women can have orgasms.

Your turn.
 
I felt like I was the last kid to learn how to tie my shoes. I didn't learn until 2nd grade, and had to get the other kids to tie my shoes for me before that.

I was the last one to know that my sister separated from her husband. I found out when I was driving with my nieces from my aunts house. All of a sudden my niece points to an apartment complex and says, "That's the apartment where daddy lives!" All I could think was, why is he not living in the house? 8(
 
Yeah, tell me about it. I didn't know I was supposed to pose with some faculty creepo and get my picture taken when I graduated. To this day the photo shows a shocked official and a red-faced me striding purposefully off camera as if I was refusing to shake his hand on principle. :facepaw:
 
JUST realized that I was the last to know that Palpatine was The Emperor in Star Wars. I found it out when he revealed it in episode 3... EVEN THOUGH he had basically the same voice AND there were hints of it throughout the movies :ffs:
 
I didn't learn my left from my right until I was...twelve, I think? I could never tell the two apart until I learned that the left hand forms an "L" when your palm is down, which is how a lot of people tell the two apart initially. At the time it wasn't awkward, because nobody else found out, but in hindsight...
 
I feel like I was the last person to know about this damn Ryback autograph signing at the big Toys R Us in the big city! :gasp:

It's gonna happen in March already. We lost out on valuable time. Now we're gonna have to deal with kids and their Moms that freak out over any little thing.

Other than that, there's really nothing else. I'm a sneaky fucker. I know things before they're said usually. I have my way of finding things out. ;)
 
Yep, family secrets and such. My mom has a child back home that I never knew about until two years ago. My aunts (father's side) and my father knew though, so I was the last one to find out (or rather, my brother because I told him afterwards). For a year I kept quiet about it and harbored this annoyed feeling towards my mom for a long time, waiting for her to tell me about it but she never did. So finally one day while washing the dishes, I confronted her about it and well, I had an annoyed tone because I couldn't believe I had to coax it out of her. She was cooking, so our backs were turned away from each other, but we were talking. She never admitted it, but simply said, "That's none of your business."

I broke one glass that day.
