Everyone has useless information stored away somewhere in their noggin, whats a random fact that you know?
I know that the interest weights one ten billionth of an ounce due to the electrons flowing.
Uranus has seasons up to twenty plus years.
The moon is moving away from the earth at a rate of 3 cm a year.
When a semi idles it burns 1 gallon of diesel per hour which equates to 6 miles of driving (not sure how random that one is)
I could probably go on and on but time to hear others.

Yes it is, and it hurts like hell.
If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days you would have produced enough sound and energy to heat one cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.)
If you farted consistently for 6 years and 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)
The human heart creates enough pressure when it pumps out to the body to squirt blood 30 feet. (O.M.G.!)
A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)
A cockroach will live nine days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy.)
(I'm still not over the pig.)
Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an hour (Do not try this at home........maybe at work.)
The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off. ("Honey, I'm home. What the......?!")
The flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field. (30 minutes... lucky pig... can you imagine??)
The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. (What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)
Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (I still want to be a pig in my next life...quality over quantity)
Butterflies taste with their feet. (Something I always wanted to know.)
The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Hmmmmmm........)
Right-handed people live, on average, nine years longer than left-handed people. (If you're ambidextrious, do you split the difference?)
Elephants are the only animals that cannot jump. (OK, so that would be a good thing....)
A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)
An ostrich's eye is bigger than its brain. (I know some people like that.)
Starfish have no brains. (I know some people like that too.)
Polar bears are left-handed. (If they switch, they'll live a lot longer.)
Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (What about that pig??)
"you kept trying to make scrambled eggs with 3 hardboiled ones."

Did you know a pig is as smart as a 5 year old child

To take an oath, Ancient Romans used to have to place their hand on their testicles, and that is where the word "testimony" came from
Coca Cola's "Super Pure" Dasani water is just filtered tap water.
Men laugh louder, longer, and more often than women.
Over one million stray dogs live in the metropolitan area of NYC
The phrase "Rule of Thumb" is derived from an old English law saying that you can't beat your wife with anything wider than your thumb.
Because the heat expands the metal, the Eiffel tower always leans away from the sun.
More than 19,000 US scientists have signed a petition stating that global warming is a myth.
A blue whales heart is the size of a VW beetle.
The chance of dying on your way to get a lottery ticket is far greater than your chance of winning the lottery.
There is a giant mushroom in Oregon that is over 2400 years old, covers 3 square miles of land, and is still growing.
A dime has 118 ridges around its edge, a quarter has 119.
That's all my randomness for now.
I hope I die like my grandpa did - quietly in his sleep... not like the rest of the people in the car.

the foot as we know it was actually the size of a kings foot in mid evil times if his foot was 11 inches that would actually be our ft measurement today.

In Baltimore, Maryland, it is not legal to take a lion to the movies. (i cant help but wonder how that came about)
In Singapore, it is illegal to sell or own chewing gum. (why)
In Natoma, Kansas, it's illegal to throw knives at men wearing striped suits. (what about the rest of them)
It's illegal to slurp soup in New Jersey.
Among the Abipone people of Paraguay, individuals who abstain from alcohol are thought to be "cowardly, degenerate and stupid."
Uruguay intoxication is a legal excuse for having an accident while driving.(what why)
A polar bear's skin is black. Its fur is not white, but actually clear. (that makes no since)
Although bourbon is Kentucky's leading export and its production directly employs thousands of people, it is illegal to buy the product in the very counties in which it is produced. They are all, to this day, still dry. (that is crap)
when in doubt throttle it out

While flying at mach 3 the SR-71 Blackbird would expand @ 6" in length. It would leak fuel on the ground from joints in the skin being engineered to expand, then it would stop when it hit those insane speeds. Everything would tighten up when it got some heat on its skin from wind friction.

Damn things leaked more than just fuel. They made a mess where ever we parked em. Sort of like the old Harleys-always marking their territory. LOL
sorry, I know that was off the topic.

Still a beautiful plane. And for being built in the 60's, some of the equipment on board is still classified. So are the actual top speeds. They say mach 3? It's actually WAY over mach 3.5....

Yeah, I was in the Air Force. Not many came to my base but yeah to think that something that was design in the late 50's and built in the 60's would have been flying routinely until about the 90's that was awesome. I think they published something like 3.2 and that was only because it was at an open trial.

Mice naw on anything and everything because they have to keep their teeth trimmed or they will grow through their brain and kill them. Some with misaligned teeth have that happen anyway.

What if your skydiving?
Anyway...
The Mitsubishi Eclipse, also sold as the Eagle Talon and Plymouth Laser, was named after an English racehorse from the 1700s that won 26 races.
The Bulgarian Army is the only force in the world which never lost a single flag, although it actively participated in all major wars in Europe since the end of the 19th century.
The name Vanilla comes from the Spanish word "vainilla", diminutive form of "vaina" (meaning "sheath"), which is in turn derived from Latin "vagina". (Everytime I eat ice cream I think of this)
