FACTS: When we found the website bestlifeonline.com with a section called 100 Fun Bits of Trivia Guaranteed To Make Your Day, we knew it was something we had to share.

OK, so we’re fans. We won’t bring you all of the bits of trivia, but we found quite a few that we didn’t know.

“NASA has found some pretty incredible things in space, and that includes a floating reservoir of water that holds the equivalent of 140 trillion times all the water that’s in Earth’s oceans. What makes it even more amazing is the fact that the reservoir surrounds a giant black hole. More than 12 billion light-years away from Earth, the reservoir is more proof ‘that water is pervasive throughout the universe,’ says Matt Bradford, a scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.”

Neat.

“Tic Tac mints are named after the sound their container makes. In 1970, Ferrero (brand) was looking to replace “Refreshing Mints” as the name of its now iconic mini mouth fresheners. Instead of going with a similarly straightforward approach, the brand says the name we all know now was inspired by the tic and the tac sounds heard when you open and close the little plastic container the mints come in.”

This next one we did know, but we love it so much we had to share it.

“Dr. Seuss wrote Green Eggs and Ham as part of a bet. The Cat in the Hat was published in 1957 and used a mere 236 words to tell the quirky feline’s fantastical story. However, the book’s author, Dr. Seuss, topped that feat with even fewer words when his publisher, Bennett Cerf, bet him that he couldn’t write a book using 50 words or less. Green Eggs and Ham hit bookstores three years later and uses exactly 50 words.”
