While trivia is classified as useless in your mind, there’s actually a category below that, full of even more useless information. It’s so useless, in fact, that it makes you wonder if knowing it has some kind of negative impact on your brain. Like, is knowing Stick Stickly’s address holding you back from being a genius? Are you dumber for still remembering how to play “Hot Cross Buns” on the recorder?
It’s hard to say. I can say with certainty that the aforementioned information isn’t helping you in any way.
To that end, Redditors have revealed the most useless pieces of information they can’t shake, and a lobotomy sounds pretty good right about now.
