Fact or factoid?

Question

Don't get me started about betting shops. Betting shops are strange places where time stands still: Alan Shearer still has a full head of hair and plays for Blackburn Rovers, Ian Wright plays for Arsenal and has a Bobby Brown hairdo and Steven Hendry is the pockmarked 17 year-old world Snooker champion. Nothing matters in betting shops except betting. Is that good? I suppose it must be. The only good thing about betting shops is that you can drink, smoke, and use the bathroom.

Facts and statistics can mean anything, but they rarely do. Men need statistics far more than women. As Angela Carter once told me: "Men think in feet, women are the feared other than will unravel your mind with baroque images of the subversion of order." I think she was drunk at the time. Lovely woman - although she doesn't share my birthday.

Answer 1

Polar bears are very sarcastic.

Answer 2

Why, factoid, of course.

The statements you provided obviously gave you some sense of pleasure and/or accomplishment, but are not applicable to my worldview.

But, that doesn't mean that they aren't important, or useful.

Just not to me at this point in time.
