gord's useless trivia thread.
okay, here's the deal. you have to post some useless trivia, useless, but interesting. the rule is, you're not allowed to consult anything or anyone, it has to be totally off the top of your head. Here's all I can think of just now:
  • Every time a man thinks about sex, his hair grows.
  • In 1961, Decca Records turned down the chance to sign the Beatles because “guitar music was on its way out”.
  • Contrary to popular belief, no-one ever said ‘Beam me up, Scotty’ on Star Trek.
  • David Schwimmer was the only member of the cast of ‘Friends’ who didn’t have to audition for his part.
  • The only words in the English language that end with ‘shion’ are ‘cushion’ and ‘fashion’.
  • The only place name in the world that has an exclamation mark is Westward Ho! Which is in England, somewhere.

  • the crisp was invented after a customer in a restaurant complained about how thick his potatoes were sliced. the chef retaliated by cutting them as thin as possible and frying them. the customer loved them.

  • Chewing gum is illegal in Singapore.
  • Mandarin Chinese is the most widely spoken language on the planet.
  • A sneeze is a 12th of an orgasm.

That's all for now. I shall be back.

  • In L.A. it's illegal to walk down the street with an ice cream in your pocket
  • There's a place in England where some silly by-law makes it legal to kill a Scottish man on a Sunday afternoon

I think they're right.
