Here are some random facts for you.
1. The ONLY known animal that lays eggs AND produces milk is the platypus. (Which means it could make its own crème brûlée.)
2. The first time “snowflake” was used in its current form to describe someone sensitive, fragile, and needing to be coddled was in “Fight Club”. (It had been used as a slang term before, but not in this way.)
3. Guinness officially says their beer isn’t black, it’s a, “dark ruby red.”
4. Horses can’t breathe through their mouth, only through their nose.
5. Rhode Island is the smallest state, but it technically has a longer name than you’d think. Its official name is the “State of Rhode Island.” That’s 18 letters, but the longest full state name is the “Commonwealth of Massachusetts” with 27.
The shortest name is a three-way tie between: Ohio, Iowa, and Utah.
