The internet is packed full of information you may never have thought to ask, but that doesn’t mean we always have the time or energy to go out and find it. Lucky for you, I’ve compiled a list of some interesting yet random fun facts you’re just too lazy to Google.

0:00.0 | The internet is packed full of information you may have never thought to ask, |
0:04.1 | but that doesn't mean we always have the timer energy to go out and find out. |
0:08.7 | Lucky for you, I've compiled a list of some interesting facts. |
0:12.1 | You're just too lazy to Google. |
0:16.3 | You're listening. |
0:17.2 | You're listening. |
0:18.7 | You're listening. You're listening. You're listening. Be amazed. |
