BBC News made a list of 100 things we didn't know last year.

Scroll down for number 72.

ETA See also number 97. It's worthy.

I'm more wtf over it because I did know that last year. I remember being wtf'ed by it in Chemistry, and that must've been over three years ago.

I knew or learnt a fair few of them this year but I only have 26 sockets (40). Didn’t know 70, and feel extremely sorry for 78.

Is this thread reminding anyone else of the comments on a very esoteric fandom_secrets post?

. . .That's a really bad list. Some of them are not in the least things that we just discovered, some are really deceptively written, and some are not really facts at all. WTF, BBC?

6. Dishcloths are purged of 99% of their bacteria during two minutes in a microwave.

And then they CATCH ON FIRE.

I knew that was going to be about Dumbledore being gay before I even clicked on the link.

Some of those are pretty interesting facts, though. (And I went "uh, yeah, that's supposed to be news?" over the "cherry blossoms are serious business in Japan" one for a minute before realizing that perhaps not everyone is as much of a wapanese loser well-versed in Japanese culture as I.)
