What’s something incredibly useless you’re weirdly proud of knowing?

That I got 1.25 points for my highschool track team in the "fat man" (Official called the "Weighted") relays, when there was four of us, that didn't have a team to run with, but we joined together at the last minute and formed a team and beat all the schools that did have 4 runners available.

But I think you had to be a track "heavy weight" to qualify, which was 225lbs.

Also, my head coach who was doing the official weigh-in for all runners for the 185lb and 225lb weighted relays yelled at me when I tried to follow proper protocol, to weigh-in 🤣 as I wasting his time 😂 he yelled and then laughed about it.

I wrestled at 275lbs. So coach thought I was exempt from having to weigh-in, as it wouldn't be questioned (but he never told me that lol)...

I guess the weight ins were just for the people that were and could be questioned. In wrestling, everyone had to weigh in no matter what.

I'm totally with you on that, Bexsy! 🤗

Learned a lot of ancient history. While in the "good to know" category .. If being honest .. it has seldom been of any true value in my life .. beyond Trivial Pursuit nights

First, me.

My love towards a woman. Apparently that is incredibly, entirely useless. But I'm still very proud of it

Idk if Im proud of knowing anything I know.

My mind is like a steel trap...that I keep getting my fingers caught in.

Same. Wife just rolls her eyes

I should ask my class tomorrow to make a list of totally useless knowledge I have forced on them over the years.

Apparently unlike the American President I know what a tariff is.

The irony of the reality of the statement:

"I know so many useless things. Don't KNOW where to begin".
