Hey everybody. Everybody loves random facts, right? So I've created this topic to discuss about them.

They must be interesting and real (no need to cite sources, but they must be real) and (according to the AG rules) they must have 7 or more words.

Let me begin.

In England a woman named Ceejay Epton (age 22) decided to change her name after her son was born. The reason: she wanted to help the baby to learn the alphabet faster. Then she changed her name to

"Ceejay A Apple B Boat C Cat D Dog E Elephant F Flower G Goat H House I Igloo J Jellyfish K Kite L Lion M Monkey N Nurse O Octopus P Penguin Q Queen R Robot S Sun T Tree U Umbrella V Violin W Whale X X-Ray Y Yo-yo Z Zebra Terryn Feuji-Sharemi"

She got the idea from a friend that wanted to be named "Pink" and decided to change her name too.

The good news is that on England, the name changing process is easy and costs £10

Anyone else have their birthday on November 12th?


Even though I don't have a random fact I feel urged to tell you that I had a friend who's birthday is on that exact same day!

Hmm...I'd better think of a random fact.

New Orleans: In July, the jury found 53-year-old Thomas Sanders guilty of the homicide of a 12-year-old girl. The problem is that he died 17 years before the verdict!

47-year-old Thomas O'Neil was arrested for defecating on his neighbor's garage. His defense: he defecated on the wrong garage. He intended to do that in his own...

A tatoo helped LAPD to solve a murder case back in 2004. Sgt. Kevin Lloyd was impressed by the markings located on Anthony Garcia's chest, member of a gang named Rivera 13. The tatoo showed a helicopter (oddly enough, this was Garcia's nickname) shooting a peanut (gang slang for "enemy&quot. And the victim was member of a gang named Pico Nuevo, enemy of Rivera 13. Anthony Garcia, "the Helicopter", was sentenced to 65 years in Jail.

Did you know that Zeros were the most dominate planes in WWII? The only reason we got the upper hand was we found one crashed over Antarctica.


Correction: the Zero that was captured intact was found in the Aleutian Islands, which are part of Alaska. Antarctica was the only continent not involved in WW2.
Additionally, several other factors helped U.S. forces to gain air superiority in the Pacific, including the development of special combat tactics designed specifically to defeat the Zero, and the fact that our planes were well-armored.

Under-water? She didn't say they can fart with their mouths.

Jellyfish actually have a hydra effect where if you kill them in the water, their reproductive juices (gross) spread out in the water and grow into knew jellyfishes.


Sea-stars too.

The most deadly animal is the mosquito


Nope. I would like to say it's the Palinurus.
