Our brains aren't very sophisticated, and every day we have the capacity to learn and retain maybe one or two interesting facts. This list is a bunch of facts that should be interesting or surprising enough to keep your attention for a few minutes. There's no such thing as too much information. The more you know, the smarter you are, the greater your chances of edging out the rest. So smarten up!

There's a mix of science, technology, history, celebrity, and random human nature facts here. Hopefully something for everyone and finally you'll be able to appear smart, or at least impress your friends and family with your newfound wealth of knowledge.

Shout out to Reddit for being the third best site on the web. (eBaum's is obviously first, and LemonParty.net is still number two.)
