A person cannot taste food unless it is mixed with saliva. For example, if strong-tasting substance like salt is placed on a dry tongue, the taste buds will not be able to taste it. As soon as a drop of saliva is added and the salt is dissolved, however, a definite taste sensation results. This is true for all foods. Try it! |

"Sub, how many pub quizzes have you won? "
Not as many as I'd like, always stumps me on the TV and sport rounds. I just have a knack for remembering useless stuff. |

Another useless fact is that Jimmy Saville invented djing. |

"The sell by date on a packet of crisps is always a Saturday. "
That's because they assume the pack won't survive a week 
I once found a pack of crisps that hadn't been opened and had the sell by date 3/4 years out of date. Tasted alright |

I can help with the sport, but if it's recent TV, I'm stuffed.
Remembering useless stuff is my forte too, though. |

In one of the early versions of the bible (original King James, I think), in Psalm 46, the 46th word is "shake." Count back 46 words from the end of the Psalm and the word is "speare".
Allegedly!
There are more canals in Birmingham than Venice; and
There are more acres in Yorkshire than words in the Bible |

If he's right handed that'll blow your theory and your Fab credibility index will be reduced to 0.
Just so you know, like.  |

"'Stewardesses’ is the longest word that is typed with only the left hand."
Typewriter is the longest word that can be typed using only the top row of keys. |

"We should have a fab quiz night...
Oh we used to do that in the chatroom on another site. Can you open a specific room in the chatrooms here? I've never used them.  "
We should look into it, what could go wrong! |

My fav piece of trivia is derivation of the word Trivia.
It comes from a point where three great Roman road from the south met near the Porta Ostiensis.
Triva = Tri (three) -via (roads)
So why are 3 roads trivial?
Because around this spot women and slaves would gather by the Tibur to thanklessly wash all the wine-stained togas. Pretty dull. So they chatted to pass the time. And with any such pass time (bit like Fab) you get rumours and half-truths and downright lies.
So. Any 'fact' deemed slightly suspect or fantastical was said to derive from the Trivia.
