Lets see who knows the most pointless fact!

Apparently, 40,000 oranges sank when the titanic did. Can anyone else beat that in pointlessness?

Incorrect. The animal capable of producing the loudest sound is more like something that the blue whale might feed on...the Pistol Shrimp. It has one pincer which is larger than the other, and specially adapted to snap shut so hard and fast, that it actually vaporizes a tiny bit of water, which creates a pressure wave equivalent to over 200dB in order to stun its prey.

I understand why it only was. Normal people can't afford to remember that, can they?

Wow, lots of comments quick!

Also, I could have sworn that Antidisestablishmentarianism was the longest word in the english dictonary. Then again, maybe not. I'm pretty sure it is though. Keep the pointlessness coming! :D

Also, another pointless thing to mention, I am a paradox :p I'm a Furry thats allergic to Fur! so, i shouldnt actually exist, and therefore, i probably dont.
