Incredibly nerdy one, but Wolverine's clone/daughter is called X-23 because flipping the 23rd chromosome from a Y to an X was the main change they made when creating her.

I got into a big argument with the substitute in sixth grade when the workbook told us to count the number of landlocked countries in Europe. It had only been like five years at that point, but Czechoslovakia was still two countries goddamnit.

It just hit me that Taco Bell only calls it "Diablo Sauce" because marketing are desperately trying to avoid using the word "chipotle" and reminding people of their competitors.

Sachertorte was invented by a chef named Franz Sacher. It does not come from the German word for sugar like I always thought.
