Sometimes we don't realize how big the storage of our brains is. We might forget some facts or happenings now and then, but it's only natural when considering we have to digest new information every day! However, some snippets of knowledge appear to be unforgettable so that even the most random and useless thing might be stuck in your brain forever.

So, I got curious about what worthless bit of trivia or knowledge is forever stuck in our pandas' heads! Here's what people had to share.

"Now That's Gonna Be Stuck In My Head": 45 Worthless Bits Of Trivia Or Knowledge Shared By Our Community A proper one this time. Pineapple 'eats' you as you eat it. Pineapple contains a chemical called Bromelain that deconstructs (and will eventually dissolve) proteins, including human tissue. So if you're wondering why it tingles on your tongue now you know (thankfully our stomach acid is strong enough to dissolve concrete so takes care of Mr Pineapple)

Some words are contranyms, meaning a word that has two different meanings that are the opposite of each other.

The three examples I know are:
Cleave (can mean either to cling to or to separate from)
Left (can be used to refer to the part of a group that departed or the part that stayed. "Three sheep left the flock, how many were left?")
Off (can mean either to activate or to deactivate. "The alarm went off, so I turned it off.")

"Now That's Gonna Be Stuck In My Head": 45 Worthless Bits Of Trivia Or Knowledge Shared By Our Community That the angels do not naturally have a human form. When you actually read in depth about them, they are said to be both beautiful and yet among the most terrifying beings in the universe. When they say "Be not afraid" there is a reason for it, and it's not because they popped out of nowhere in front of your face.

This is the first description of an angel that has made sense to me, but now I have more questions. Going by what you said, if they appear to be both beautiful and fearsome, do you think, if they do appear to humans, that their appearance can vary from human to human, depending on said human's disposition? If you're an evil person, would your angel come off as fearsome and terrifying, whereas a good human would get the beautiful image of that angel?

Many years ago, when wood was in short supply it was a common practice to dig up and reuse coffins.

Quite often the grave diggers would see scratch marks on the underside of the coffin lid, left there by someone who was buried but still alive!

This happened so often, in fact, that all newly buried people had a length of string tied to their finger, leading all the way aboveground where it was tied to a bell.

When someone buried alive would move their hand trying to desperately claw their way out, the bell would ring aboveground.

Those people were called "Dead Ringers".

The men hired to listen for the bells during the night were known to be working the "graveyard shift".

Not trivia, just a Spanish word my nutty, Mexican friend from college made me learn, for some weird reason. It's the word for "ear, nose and throat" - otorrinolaringologo. I've found myself repeating it over and over in my head whenever I'm in a lot of pain, especially with migraines. I don't do it intentionally, it just happens. Thanks for the subconscious coping mechanism, Hermès!

Edit: too bad I can't edit - somebody's gonna call me out on the colloquial "millions of light years away" because only other galaxies are visible at that distance, not individual stars. Realistically we're talking stars from the Milky Way which could only be about 100,000 light years away at most. The point stands about time not passing for photons though.

Bill Haley and the Saddlemen released Rock This Joint, but it didn't do well. They changed the band to Bill Haley and the Comets, and the sing to Rock Around The Clock, and history was made.

Sharks don't pee normally. To use osmosis efficiently, sharks store their pee in their bloodstream to maintain a higher salinity than the water they live in. This way, sharks are able to stay hydrated as water moves to the area with higher salinity. Excess is excreted through their skin.

Honey bees have two sets of wings which can be(e) used independent as a pair of forewings and a pair of hindwings . This allows the bee maximum mobility for hovering for nectar and pollen collection. Once loaded down the 2 sets of wings can bee locked together to form a more a more efficient and heavier lift surface. The locking mech is a series of hooks from the hindwings that locks onto a "gutter" trough on the forewings. It's been suggested that was the inspiration for the modern zipper. Other bees in my bonnet are two other great special "tools" that Hbees have evolved are a special pick/comb to groom pollen from their antennas- hard to smell the flowers otherwise. The other adaptation is a 3 part comb and collection basket for carrying pollen back to the hive for food on the hind pair of legs. Way2B Bs

Not entirely true! The commercially grown eating bananananas are non-viable, but there are some banana types with seeds that are fertile. Find that particular non-hybrid wild banana with viable seeds, and you can make some catch. You can also buy banana seeds on the internet and grow your own tree, but it most likely won't have edible fruit.

The minimum dynamic hydroplaning speed, in knots, of a tire to be 8.6 times the square root of the tire pressure in pounds. If it's pouring out, assume your tire pressure if you don't know it, to be 25 (square root 5), so 5x9 (8.6 rounded up) is 45, which is about 51 mph. Better to err on the side of caution, and slow down. I think of this every darn time it rains
