Did you know that the longest name officially used by a person is:

Adolph Blaine Chrales David Earl Frederick Gerald Hubert Irvin John Kenneth Llowd Martin Nero Oliver Paul Quincy Randolph Sherman Thomas Uncas Victor William Xerxes Yancy Zeus Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenbergerdorft Sr.?

Notice the pattern?

And there are 1,929,770,126,028,800 different colour combinations on a Rubik's Cube

The longest name of a hill is

Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaunga horonukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu. (Without the space, of course)

Oh, and that is the name of a New Zealand hill, might I add.

And finally in this set of extremely interesting, yet useless facts is that it takes three months to make one episode of The Simpsons.


Looking for any other kind of totally useless (yet not) things? Try searching for 'Chindogu'.

Chindogu are totally un-useless Japanese inventions; and some are very funny.

Thanks for reading

Shut up Half Pint. Give this guy a break, just because he isn't a regular you have to start making fun of him with your large paraphrases. Well, you conscripulating little padawan - if he was a notable you wouldn't say anything. So give this guy a chance.

Cool. A South African monkey was once awarded a medal and promoted to the rank of corporal during World War 1.

The term sherrif comes from the name the "shire rief" the local tax collector who works for the crowner who is the royalties chief tax collector for the country back in the old days.
and corroner comes from crowner
as they both used to investigate the deaths of land owners and tax contributers.

Are you calling me a chimp? ARE YOU CALLING ME A CHIMP??? There isn't a point to this topic, and that is the point, if you get my meaning. I strongly advise you to tread carefully, young padawan, the path from JAT to Regular is a slippery one indeed, and if you get on the wrong side of certain people, such as yours truly, you may find youself in a very bad state once I'm through with you. Now heed my advice and don't ever take the rip out of a superior again, and NEVER spam.

Now bow down to your king, KING HALF PINT.
