don't forget that sean connery was born in 1930, that most important stuff happened in the 2nd millennium, and that answers don't require an article, and that scrambles are always plural
oh and that, according to arbitrary america questions, you can get arrested in most states for doing anything worthwhile

I memorized most actor/actress birth years that appear on trivia.

I don't know what I haven't learned from TheTriviaHost. I believe that every random fact, which will most likely never present itself to me in life again except on that channel, has been obtained from reading random questions and trying to guess at a possible answer. But hey, we all need random shit to occupy space in our heads at some point eh?

I learned what color an orange crayon is.

[LedZeppelin]

ive also learned that only 14% of people skinny dip (thank you repeats)
then i learned that all the statistics questions are bullshit

[musashi23]

I learned that too Zeppelin!

[ferrousmoon]

Hah, funny post FOwen. I learned but still don't believe that there is only one english word that ends in -mt. Somehow I haven't researched to allay my doubts.

[LedZeppelin]

yes dreamt...
ive also learned that most questions uploaded to triviahost play to common misconceptions (sometimes juvenile ones)
for instance, blood is blue (yeah really), a person eats eight spiders in his/her lifetime (sleep with the mouth gaping?), we only use 10% of our brains (only if you're from west virginia ) and that regardless of there being over 1.25 billion people who can speak english worldwide, mandarin is actually the most spoken language (900 million) because the question uploader is smarter than the average american and knows it's really mandarin

[LostPeon™]

The spider eating is actually a myth.
