Maaaaaan, I’ve been holding this in for almost 3 decades and it’s time to vent lol…
When I was in middle-school we were doing a quiz on space and the Earth and I recall the question: how long is a year?
I’d remember reading in my “Magic School Bus” book that a year is closer to ~365.25 (that’s where we get the extra day in the leap years) and the class and teacher mocked me for not putting 365. I’m still salty about it!

Julian = 365.25 days
Gregorian = 365.2425 so you also loose a day every century but this is cancelled every 400 years.
