We haven't had one of these in forever, so I figured, why the hell not, they're fun and they're educational, although not in any productive or practical way for the most part.
Did you know that...
Coffee became popular in colonial America in the 1770's due to the British cutting off much of the tea trade to North America. All the dandies needed something to sip over their conversation about their rather unjust revolution[footnote]Yes I, as an American do think that the grounds for independence were more than a little shaky[/footnote] (if you really think about it, the Colonies didn't have that much of a reason for rebellion) so they turned to coffee. Oddly enough, as the demand for coffee grew in the US, it lessened in Britain where tea reigned supreme and has ever since the war of 1812.
the character Ermac from the Mortal Kombat series was originally a bug in the pallet swap function and when you looked at the fight audit, it says you fought ERMAC, which was a shortened version Error Macro.
Thomas Jefferson's original vision for America was actually the idea of many small farm communities that were worked in a communal fashion, similar to communism. He later realized this wouldn't work all that well after the failure of The Articles of Confederation (which were too weak) and as the country expanded.
Your turn, tell me something new that I haven't heard before.
