My friend, a photography student, told me the other day that with every two minutes that goes by, the people on planet earth take more pictures than all of humanity did in the 19th century. Perhaps not that surprising when you consider the 21st century’s obsession with selfie sticks and photobombing – but nevertheless, still pretty insane right?

If you loved that little gem, you will simply adore the 15 totally random things that are coming your way. Next time you’re at a party and small talk runs stale, pull one or two of these out of the hat and you’ll have the whole gathering hanging onto your every word. Trust me.

1. When you snap your fingers, the noise doesn’t come from your finger and thumb. Instead, it comes from your middle finger hitting your palm

2. Your shopping cart has a hidden feature you never even knew about

3. Sorry to break it to you, but “genuine leather” doesn’t mean the item is made of real leather; it’s actually a grade of leather and the second worst type of leather that exists

4. Witchcraft

5. There’s a good reason why Microsoft chose to go with “X” instead of “E” for Excel
