11. John managed to figure out Sherlock's birthday and worked hard to find him a present he'd like, and wouldn't know about. It turned out Sherlock forgot his birthday that year because it was right in the middle of a triple homicide.
12. Sherlock shot the doorbell because he had an admirer who kept showing up. John insisted that shooting the bell wouldn't discourage her, but he failed to think about Sherlock shooting the bell right in front of her. She didn't come back.
13. Sally never went out with Sherlock. She wanted to and hinted at it, but he was oblivious. Sally thinks he was only pretending to be oblivious, when in fact, Sherlock still has no clue what actually went on.
14. John also didn't buy Sherlock a cat because he's pretty sure he would have experimented on it.
15. Sherlock doesn't drink milk. He only asks John to get it to annoy him, and to get him out of the house so Sherlock can conduct experiments. (CASSIDY)
16. Anderson really was enlisting Sally's help with scrubbing his floors. He wanted to impress his wife when she came home.
17. Sherlock is perfectly aware that there is no such thing as a high functioning sociopath. He mostly made it up to screw with Anderson, but has since adopted it as a sort of title to throw at people when they annoy him about his feelings.
18. John doesn't really make enough on his army pension to get by, but he hardly needs to work. Money mysteriously finds its way into his bank account each month.
19. Mycroft picks out most of Sherlock's clothes for him. He tried taking him shopping once, but it was a disaster. He ended up going home with only one thing after six hours of looking.
(That one item was a coat.)
20. Mycroft's first birthday after Sherlock's rehab, Sherlock gave him his umbrella as a present. It's an inside joke.
