People Share Their Most Tantalizingly Useless Facts

The pursuit of knowledge is a noble one. At the same time, it probably doesn't help a whole lot to be able to describe exactly where cashews come from, or what elephants really think of mice. But at least it's amusing to know things, however trivial they may be. Many of us have done a great job tricking other people into thinking we ourselves are smart just because we know one or two things about the chocolate harvesting process.

Give us a square peg and a round hole and we'll bang those bastards together until the hole gets eroded.

For some more insight into the world we live in, here are some science facts that show the terrifying scope of our universe.
