Nice ones
Really really pointless 😀
40% on happy meals cant belive that tbh but cool if true
Very very funny and equally pointless.
I like the fact that you are adding some humor to your blog, it is needed
“A snail can sleep for three months.” lol at that, lazy thing 😉
Btw such posts are good for non-webmaster readers.
hehehe
Very funny jokes 😉
Another nice one! Although you already told us about the newborns.
That’s pretty cool ( and pretty darn funny too) about Churchill. I would have never guessed that he was born in a woman’s restroom… so odd. I could have guessed that a sizable portion of McDonalds profits would come from happy meals! McDonalds attracts a lot of kids. After all, Ronald McDonald is a clown.
till then,

It may be pointless trivia but good and fun to know anyway. I enjoyed it~!
pointless indeed but cool… keeps us all smiling

I still can’t believe Winston Churchill was born in a ladies room.
@sell used textbooks, yeah it’s a really funny fact, but I am sure there are plenty more famous people who were born in weird places too 😉
Till then,

I still can’t believe 30% of their profit are from happy meals. I guess those parent have to give the kids what they want.
I love your pointless trivia! It is so much fun to see what you don’t know~!
I never get tired of these
I love trivia. As for Winston Churchill, he really was not born in a ladies room. He probably was not even premature, as reported. His mother tended to enjoy men, and is overall believed to be a bun in the oven when his parents married to try to cover up the embarrassment of out of wedlock mother.

The moment and place of birth affect the whole life and this is basically on what astrology is based on. The fact that mr. Churchill was an unique character and had a unique birth only proves that. Great post.
The guillotine was invented by Joseph-Ignace Guillotin and legend is he died on it. It would be interesting to know if the dentist died on it too….

Wow that is weird i didn’t know any of them. That is interesting.
Americans eat on average 18 acres worth of pizza every day I can’t hardly believe that.
I hope to see some new ones this year, i really like your pointless trivia.
Great stuff you found here i love it
Really nice
, really pointless
And how many “blocks” are there in the biggest pyramid ?
It’s never pointless if you’re learn something new. I love these! Thanks
