I always thought Hawaii grew the most pineapples, but that's not the case. They really only grow enough for the tourists. The top pineapple producing countries are Indonesia, Philippines, and Costa Rica.

Can you imagine a bird no larger than your thumb?


Needless to say, this teeny chap is the smallest bird in the world.
He is the bee hummingbird, and he weighs less than a U.S. penny.

Flapping its wings 80 times a second—almost 5,000 beats per minute—it darts from bush to vine,
feasting on flowers and insects to fuel its hyperactivity.

In fact, the hungry little fella eats half of its body weight
in food every day and is able to visit 1,500 flowers a day to quench its thirst.
Sugar-rich flower water gives vital energy, and insects provide protein.
Capable of flying for up to 20 hours without a break, they certainly need the calories.

During a courtship sortie, their wing beats increase up to 200 times per second,
the same as the ruby-throated hummingbird;
that’s faster than all other birds on the planet.
Often mistaken for large bumblebees,
they weigh less than 0.07 ounces.

Did you know- that bobcats are often confused for large tabbies!? (It's true. Please don't make this mistake.)
Bobcats are one of the most widely spread and adaptive hunters in North America. They prowl forests, deserts, swamplands, and suburban backyards at twilight in search of food, which is basically any small mammal or bird. If you spot one, the iconic bobbed tail should tip you off that this is no domestic cat.

Ice pops were invented by an 11-year-old by accident:

In 1905, an 11-year-old boy named Frank Epperson left soda powder and water outside overnight with its wooden stirrer still in the cup. The mixture had frozen in the chilly nighttime weather, and so the Epsicle was born

Wow thats cool!!

Supermarket apples can be a year old

These weird facts might have you changing the way you eat. Those fresh apples aren’t all that fresh, per say.
They’re usually picked between August and November, covered in wax, hot-air dried, and sent into cold storage.
After six to twelve months, they finally land on your grocery store shelves.

I hope that doesnt happen very often!! (I buy bananas alot (Organic))

You reach the 1,000 month old mark when you are 83 years and 4 months old.

The MTA uses vintage 1930s R1-9 train cars every holiday season between Thanksgiving and New Years.

They usually run along the F Line in Manhattan and on the A,C,D Lines departing from 125th St. on the weekends.

These cars were discontinued from regular service around 1977. A unique feature they have are the ceiling fans.

Did you know that the color scheme on the New York Mets' uniforms was supposed to combine the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants?

Michael J. Fox became a star with Family Ties and Back to the Future. But in 1980 he was an unknown actor who auditioned for Ordinary People and lost out to Timothy Hutton, future star of Leverage. Director Robert Redford did not like Michael's audition and flossed his teeth during it. :eek: Timothy won a best supporting actor Oscar for Ordinary People playing the son of Mary Tyler Moore and Donald Sutherland.

I did not know that.

I rarely take the subway now, but I remember riding in those old cars occasionally in my childhood. At any given time, the subways had different train models in the system at the same time, so you never knew which type of train that you would get. Also, because the subways originally started out as three different private subways systems not run by the city, not all train models can run on every line.

The old trains with the ceiling fans were referred to by everyone as 'cattle cars', and even though they had no air conditioning, they were much cooler in the summer than the cars that replaced them, which had horrible air conditioning. Those ceiling fans were quite effective. Nothing could save you on the underground platforms though, as the 7th Avenue Times Square station would easily surpass 100 degrees in the summer.

A discontinued subway car I remember from when I was younger are the Redbirds. These were officially discontinued around 2003 and the cars were then scattered underwater around the Atlantic Ocean to create artificial reefs.

Some other cars were sent to be displayed at museums.




The MTA tokens were also officially discontinued around this time. I remember using them a handful of times when I took the bus to high school when my student-issued MetroCard wasn't available. The tokens were accepted on the busses a little bit longer than the subways. I believe they were $1.75 when they were discontinued.

I'm sure you know, but the MTA wants to phase out the MetroCard for the OMNY system. I'm seeing more subway stations installing the OMNY machines, though they are not activated yet.

Did you all know I do not like Liars???

I believe only the IRT used those red trains. When I took the subway regularly, I used the IND. I probably used tokens more times in my life than Metrocards, although it might be close. I remember when I was very young, buses took coins for fares and the bus driver even made change for you. That was stopped when bus drivers began being robbed. I've seen the OMNY turnstiles but don't know how they work, nor do I have any interest in 'signing up'.

I think congestion pricing is a disgrace. NYC now loses between $500 million and $1 billion a year by allowing people to sneak onto the trains and buses without paying, yet drivers in the outer boroughs - who don't use the subways - will have to pay to drive into Manhattan to keep the subways running.

What makes you think people in the outer boroughs don't take the subways? The 7 train and J and Z trains have been stuffed more times than I can remember.

I also think the transition from MetroCards to OMNY is causing a lot of the increase in skipping fares. OMNY tries to rely on cell phone transactions, and if you can't rely on your phone, you can't pay. And yes, I do know that there are OMNY cards.

BTW, I've actually collected old subway tokens.

Did you know 1+1 does not equal 3??

I remember from when I was younger that the only thing separating the driver from the riders was a metal pole. Now they are closed off and the drivers rarely seem to leave the wheel. The exception is when they have to help a wheelchair user strap themselves in.

I remember a few times that the driver pulled over and stopped the bus until the few passengers who boarded through the back either exited or paid the fare. Now they do not want the confrontations and just rather allow people on.

The Express Bus doesn't have any barriers between the driver and riders.

I've been in that situation. I didn't have my MetroCard and I found out I was a dollar short paying for the bus fare, and the driver just let me stay. I offered to break up a $5 bill with some of the other riders and pay the rest of the fare, but nobody bothered.

Identical twin sisters Brittany and Briana, 38, married identical twin brothers Josh and Jeremy in 2017 after meeting at the Twins Day Festival.
After their "quaternary marriage," a term used to describe identical twins marrying identical twins, both couples gave birth to children at the same time in 2021 who are considered quaternary multiples, meaning they are full genetic siblings from identical twin parents. Although technically cousins, the boys are genetically brothers. Both families live together in the same house in Virginia.

I was reading an article on Brooklyn's Home Reporter about all of the cannabis shops that are opening.

The owners have been saying that their main clientele are older women (65 and up) who want it to manage their chronic pain. Residents have been saying the cannabis shops have been a source of "trouble", but the owners want to show that they have a friendlier image.

There's a definite egg shortage and it's perfectly obvious as to why. The bird flu epidemic caused the government to have 100 million chickens killed.

Of course the funny part of this is that the previous administration ordered the killings and are now blaming the price increase on the current administration. :lol:

DYK....about the new generation that started in 2025. It is Generation Beta. We're all familiar with Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, Generation Z, and Generation Alpha. Now, in 2025 we have the Betas. They will be born from 2025 to 2039. They will be the children from younger Millennials and older Gen-Zers.

They said that they cannot leave anyone behind and have to give passing grades to everyone. High school students are no longer being required to pass state regents exams in order to graduate beginning in the 2027-28 school year.

Facts about the Morocco Pavilion in Disney's EPCOT Center:


- It was the only one of the country replicas where the country was involved with its development.

King Hassan II sent architects and artists to Walt Disney World to accurately replicate a Moroccan city as much as possible. Morocco's sponsorship of the pavilion ended in 2020 when Disney took it over.



- Morocco does not light up for the Illuminations lights and fireworks show because its tallest structure is a replica of the Kutubiyya Mosque and it would be seen as disrespectful according to Islamic customs.

Norway does not light up in order to maintain symmetry as it does not contain tall buildings.



- The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in Disney's Hollywood Studios can be seen from the Morocco pavilion.

The back of the building and its top was intentionally designed to resemble Moroccan architecture.

DYK - The exact origin of the phrases take the bull by the horns and grab the bull by the horns is unknown.
Many ascribe these idioms to bullfighting.
Others believe they originated in the American Old West,
where cowboys wrestled with cows and steers.
The terms take the bull by the horns and grab the bull by the horns were first seen in the early 1700s, so both explanations are dubious at best. :wave:

A wild elephant in Thailand was spotted raiding a grocery store. He wandered from his home at the Khao Yai National Park and decided to help himself to some food!
The elephant, Plai Biang Lek, can be seen on video backing out of the store holding a bag of chips with his trunk. He ate about nine bags of sweet rice crackers, a sandwich, and some dried bananas before leaving with little damage left and without injuring anyone.
He is known for wandering around and entering homes in search of snacks, though this was his first time in a grocery store.

Most Facts of Life fans can't stand Kelly Affinado, an obnoxious girl introduced in season 5 who was fortunately dropped after 12 episodes. I found out her portrayer, Pamela Segall Adlon, lasted a lot longer on animated King of the Hill as the voice of Bobby.

Disney's The Haunted Mansion was originally conceived as a walkthrough attraction where a tour guide, butler, takes guests through the decrepit house.

The original idea also tied in with the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction. The story was that a retired sea captain, who was secretly a former pirate, built a luxurious mansion for his much younger wife and filled it with many treasures; the loot from his pirate activities.

Word began to spread around the town of the sea captain's true identity and his wife confronted him about it. He strangled her in a fit of rage and eventually hung himself in the house from guilt. The house then fell into disrepair in the decades after as nobody wanted anything to do with it.

Guests would encounter the ghost of the wife, in her bridal gown, who would warn them about her husband's evil presence in the house.




The attraction was retooled as this idea was considered "too dark" and they decided to make it a dark ride with spooky elements and not downright frightening.

Walt Disney also did not want a house that looked abandoned in the park.




There are some concepts from the original idea that made it to the current attraction:

- the ghost host is shown to have hung himself at the beginning of the ride
- a portrait of a ghost ship can be seen in the art gallery
- there is a ghost bride, but the story is different

Disney's Animal Kingdom was originally going to have a section called "Beastly Kingdom" which was to be devoted to mythological animals such as dragons and unicorns.

It was never completed due to budget constraints and the spot where it was supposed to be is now where Pandora: The World of Avatar is.



There are some nods to "Beastly Kingdom" still found inside:

- the parking lot has a section named Unicorn
- the head of a dragon is on the main ticket booth window
- a silhouette of a dragon is on the main logo of the park

Sian Barbara Allen, an actress from The Waltons who just died this year, was a big fan of Bob Dylan. She went to a folk festival and hid in a toilet after the show until the crowd left. :eek: Her strategy paid off, and she was able to meet Bob backstage. from Jon Walmsley's Facebook post today

Two things I didn't know about France that a friend of mine who went there told me:


- France does not really do air conditioning. A lot of the public transit, restaurants, hotels, and taxi services did not have them. Hotels and other businesses that cater to foreigners do have them, but it's not prevalent.

It felt like 100 degrees in Paris and my friend went to a restaurant thinking it would be cooler inside, but no.



- Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is only sold in pharmacies.

While a prescription is not required, it is up to the pharmacists' discretion to sell it.

That's pretty surprising about Tylenol in France; in the U.S. even "extra strength" is an over-the-counter product.

I follow several U.K. channels on YouTube, it seems that in England from what I've observed, air conditioning is not prevalent there either.

Spaghetti is not actually Italian food.
The Chinese invented the noodle.

Palm trees are not natural to Florida.

DYK...that Michael Jackson's Chimpanzee Bubbles, is still alive and living in a Great Apes Sanctuary in Florida, along with the Orangutan from the movie "Any Which Way But Loose" and some Chimpanzees from the movies, "Planet of the Apes".

An ancient Greek librarian used a stick and its shadow to measure the entire planet. He calculated Earth's circumference over 2,000 years ago and was less than 1% off from today's measurements.

Bears can become alcoholics and develop substance problems just like humans. Animals On Drugs mentioned a bear that broke into a woman's car and ate her marijuana gummies. :lol:

And there are rehab centers for alligators. Human meth-heads flush their meth down toilets to hide it from police. The sewers become filled with meth, getting into the alligators. Citrus County in Florida might as well be renamed Meth County. :crazy:

Dude, you aren't getting what TJ and others have tried to tell you. This thread is for general knowledge trivia like could possibly be featured on a national game show. It is not for saying what any of us personally are doing or our personal opinions. You are the only one who does that. TJ resurrected the what are you doing thread, post away in that. There is also the what are you thinking about now thread you can use. MISST3 the originator of these did you know threads never intended for them to be a personal soapbox.

Police in Maine received an urgent call about a screaming woman. When they rushed to the scene, they found a goat named Simon instead of a woman.
Simon’s owner, Devon Hawes, says that Simon loves to yell, and then told local news stations that he “doesn’t know how to make a goat be quiet.” 😅

Did you know that the identical twins on Season 1 I Love Lucy in the episode that Lucy babysits were not identical twins at all . They were not even fraternal twins. They weren't even Brothers . Just two child actors that were not related at all! .:eek:

DYK .... that Jackie Kennedy's pink suit, from the JFK assassination, is currently held by the National Archives and will remain locked away in a climate-controlled vault until the year 2103. Caroline Kennedy, her sole surviving heir, donated the uncleaned, blood-stained suit in 2003 with the stipulation that it not be displayed publicly for 100 years, a decision intended to prevent further grief to the family and to preserve the memory of the event.

A Florida man was arrested for kidnapping 27 people and forcing them to play Yahtzee for 36 hours straight. :lol:

DYK...the longest movie ever made is the 2012 Swedish experimental film "Logistics", which has a runtime of 857 hours (35 days and 17 hours) and follows the production process of a pedometer, from its point of manufacture in China to its final destination in Sweden.

DYK - The shortest song ever recorded is "You Suffer" by the British grindcore band Napalm Death, which lasts just 1.316 seconds. It was released in 1989 on their debut album, Scum, and is recognized by Guinness World Records as the shortest song in music history.

A mountain lion broke into a small-town ice cream shop after midnight — and didn’t steal money or cause chaos. It just ate.
Security footage showed the big cat prying open freezers, sampling every flavor — vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, even mint chip — before curling up on the floor and falling asleep, whiskers dusted with frosting.
When officers arrived, they found him peacefully napping. “He looked like he had a sugar hangover,” one rescuer joked.
Experts later explained that big cats can detect fatty lipids like humans sense sugar — to them, dairy is irresistible.
The shop owner just laughed: “As long as someone’s paying for him, I hope he comes back. But next time, I’m locking up the mint chip.”

Cheaply made confetti can give you hives, it was mentioned on this week's episode of High Potential.

DYK...that The East Wing of the White House was 123-years-old, constructed in 1902 and expanded in 1942. The area housed the first lady's offices, the White House visitors' office, and the movie theater, and was reduced to rubble in Oct 2025.

9-1-1 (the TV show) can have really out there cases. They mentioned walking corpse syndrome on last night's episode. Turns out that is a real, rare condition.

from a Wikipedia overview: "Cotard's syndrome, also known as Cotard's delusion or walking corpse syndrome, is a rare mental disorder in which the affected person holds the delusional belief that they are deceased, do not exist, are putrefying, or have lost their blood or internal organs. Statistical analysis of a hundred-patient cohort indicated that denial of self-existence is present in 45% of the cases of Cotard's syndrome; the other 55% of the patients presented with delusions of immortality."

On 9-1-1 it seemed to be a temporary case caused from a concussion from being hit by a car.

A man in Ohio was arrested after he allegedly sent a bag of methamphetamine through a bank's drive-thru air tube system. :crazy:

Researchers at Tel Aviv University achieved a medical milestone once thought impossible: creating a living, beating human heart using a patient’s own fat cells.
The process begins by reprogramming fat cells into stem cells. These cells are then used to 3D-print a heart containing chambers, blood vessels, and cardiac muscle — all biologically matched to the patient. Unlike previous lab-grown tissues, this heart contracts in a coordinated way.
Because it’s made entirely from the patient’s own cells, the risk of immune rejection is dramatically reduced — potentially eliminating the need for lifelong immunosuppressive drugs.
The heart is currently small and not yet transplant-ready. But experts view it as proof of concept — a critical step toward solving global organ shortages and personalizing transplant medicine.

DYK...Tinsel was first invented in Germany in the early 1600s. It was originally made from real silver to reflect candlelight. While beautiful, silver tinsel tarnished quickly. Modern tinsel uses plastic or aluminum instead.

DYK...that the 50 year old, Washington DC, J Edgar Hoover Building, is closed permanently because of extreme disrepair and massive maintenence costs. The FBI's new DC head-quarters are at the Ronald Reagan Building, where approx. 6,000 employees will consolidate, with about 1500 employees being relocated to field offices.

DYK...Jane Dulo, who played Oscar’s mother, was only five years older than Jack Klugman.

Fanta has its origins in Nazi Germany.

During WWII, there was a trade embargo with Germany (for obvious reasons), so Germany could no longer get Coca-Cola from the USA. Max Keith, who was the head of Coca-Cola Deutschland, decided to create his own drink which was made from sugar beet, whey, and apple pomace.

The current orange flavored drink was created in Naples in 1955, with the original Fanta being discontinued in 1949. After WWII, the USA gained control of Fanta from Germany.

DYK ~~ This is a very unusual long paragraph:

“Although, it is highly common in most paragraphs, a trial at accomplishing such an account of writing is not that difficult. You would want to know that this task might occupy most of your brain for hours if not for a short duration. And as you go through this account, its composition will look atypical in a way or two. This is so, for I am struggling to attain words that would impart what I want to say. And in doing so, I'm also missing out on so many words that I must dismiss owing to our condition that binds this solution. Not willing to go on and on with this supposingly silly and absurd paragraph, I'll opt to put a halt at this point having shown practically that it is not impractical to attain a paragraph with our symbol of highlight.” -anonymous

DYK...Scientists observed female monkeys teaching their young how to floss their teeth with human hair.

Xiaopi, a Russian Blue cat, went from regular guest to feline legend in a single night. While he was staying at a pet hotel in Guangdong province, China, the staff let him roam freely during the early hours of the morning… and he did not waste the opportunity. The result was an unexpected romantic marathon with several female cats (mating with five female cats in one night) that left him so exhausted he ended up receiving an IV drip to recover. His owner, after checking the security cameras, did not know whether to laugh or get angry, and the story went viral, leaving a clear lesson: in pet hotels, supervision is just as important as affection. :cat: :kitties: :cat: :kitties: :eek:

The fictional town Silent Hill, from the video game / movie series, is based on Centralia, Pennsylvania.

The town was nearly totally abandoned (5 residents are reported to remain in 2020) due to an underground mine fire started in 1962.

^When you post things like that, it causes many of us to call up the new post on the thread--which is a waste of everyone's time. I'll politely ask if we could possibly refrain from posts that thank people for posting?

A domestic dispute nobody saw coming.
Police officers responding to a reported domestic disturbance in Miami expected to find a heated argument between a couple. Instead, they discovered both partners arguing with their pet macaw, who had memorized and was reenacting past fights in perfect detail.
The bird alternated voices and phrases, creating the illusion of a full blown argument. Officers confirmed no violence had occurred and issued a noise citation, noting the macaw was the true source of the disturbance. :winkgrin
