What an amazing collection of nothing. What amuses me is that many of the contradict each other. I guess you didn't take time to read them while you were compiling them, huh/!Some, a few, are true. Some, a lot, are old wives tale and as true as the old wife was.Some, a lot more, are just plain wrong.Some, as I said, contradict each other.But, it is still amazing that you took the time to put it all in one spot.

Did you know that I won a nationally televised Quiz Competition in Bangladesh known as Horlicks Genius Bangladesh in 2004? It got me a lot of prestige in school, but apart from now, I would never brag about my knowledge.I might not know all of these, but I certainly know many other things (as does everyone else on Y!A), but we do not show off like you.BTW, read Schott's Miscellany (by Ben Schott) to find examples of spectacularly useless information.

I feel that you have already answered the question due to the length.

All knowledge is useful to someone.1984 is with us whenever someone draws a line through facts and decides what is useless and what is not.

The dome question is wrong, Indianapolis Colts play in a dome and they have won a Super Bowl.
