This doesn't sound reasonable. It means the average person spend 2.4 hours per day waiting in lines.

People, people, we're getting horribly mixed up here.
Firstly, Sib, facts, not jokes.
Also, Shana, that's not really relevant; PK, that's not a fact.
Dragon, I agree with Dottie, that doesn't sound right, also, I'd say that the amount of sunlight time we have left doesn't count as a pointless fact.

Please don't use sources for pointless facts.

Well, a pointless fact is one that you don't really need to know.
The ones you posted are things you would need to know.

Perhaps you could post a list of all pointless facts that it is acceptable to post, as well as the allowed sources. That way no one have to risk posting something erranous in this thread.
Order is a good thing.

I disagree, I believe that you definately need to be aware of your own mortality, and to follow this up you need to know what will kill you, and you also need to know roughly how commonly people take in substances such as pot and alcohol. It's a social thing, and we're social animals.

Well my eye happens to be that of the game maker, so agreeing to disagree would mean that you don't post.
