Useless
Alrighty, I'm bored, this is infact how this thread came to be. I was in a bookshop today and saw this book with about 300 pages filled with useless knowledge, it was funny and rather interesting (planning to buy it) and it made me wonder...
What's a random piece of useless knowledge that you know?
The capital of Uzbekistan is Taskhent.
Oh, and all polar bears are left handed.

You can take a fish in a bowl of water, take out the water, fill it with mountain dew, let the fish die, take out the mountain dew, replace it with water, and when if you put the contacts of a 9 volt battery to the top of the water, the fish will revive.

Viz productions uses the wrong spelling for the name of Inuyasha's sword in the show Inuyasha. The way they spell it is Tetsusaiga, but the "tsu" in the middle can be used in 2 ways. The way they use it when writing the kanji for it is as a glottal stop, a brief pause between syllables. It sounds almost like a slur of the previous letter, and is therefore romanized as a double letter, being spelled as 'Tessaiga' instead of 'Tetsusaiga'.
That's my useless information for the day lol.

Did you know that the color calico/tortiseshell (in cats) almost always occurs in females, and if it's in a male, he's almost always sterile.
Many thanks Christmas!
