If you’re like me, you hold on to trivial (aka useless) knowledge in the event a perfect conversation happens wherein dropping this knowledge will make me look like I’m smarter than I am, then here are some facts to commit to memory...
- The first EP to EVER reach Number One on the Billboard 200 was “Jar of Flies” by Alice in Chains in 1994. There are seven tracks, and it feels like part of a greatest hits now, with “Nutshell”, “No Excuses”, and “I Stay Away”.
- When Pixar was editing “Toy Story 2″, someone managed to accidentally DELETE a huge chunk of the movie. They miraculously found a backup though . . . an employee on maternity leave had saved it so she could work on it at home.
- The average $1 bill has 3,000 different types of bacteria on it.
- Grabbing another player by the face mask wasn’t illegal in the NFL until 1962.
- Before Chumbawamba had their giant pop hit “Tubthumping” in 1997, they were an anarchic and politically charged punk band.
You are now officially smarter.
