This is a question Useless Information

Did you know that crabs wee through their eyes? That maidenhair moss is so called because Anglo-saxons thought it looked like pubes? That Albanians have 17 different words for moustache? Astound us with your utterly useless and obscure knowledge.

Yeah, thanks.
A couple of years ago at work, the email server went down. When it was brought back online, somebody 'upstairs' sent an email around the office, politely informing everybody that they could now access their email.

A different slant on 'useless information'. If you want to be pedantic, however, did you know that the word 'robot' is derived from the Czech term for a slave - 'robotnik'.
