Those things that rattle around in your head that give you a fuzzy feeling because you know it, but are painfully aware that society would laugh at you if you were to proudly declare that knowledge in public.

I happen to know what was at No.6 in the charts the day Chris Eubanks presented Top of the pops. I know this because it was on buzzcocks, as they thought it must have been a massively co-ordinated p***-take

"Thith week, at numbah Thix, it`th thuggs with Thethilia"

The Chinese measure your age from when you were conceived, not from when you are born. So on the day of your birth you are considered to be 1 year old (rounded up from the actual 9 months, obviously)

Mayonnaise is made from the sap of the mayon plant that grows exclusively in the Helmand province of Afghanistan. Fact. Someone once believed me for a very very short while on that one.
