Anyone else here like to collect facts or trivia about their favorite...anything. I love to keep huge lists of lots of interesting and fun facts of anything that interests me.

I am a font of random facts. The people around me are always making fun of the random stuff I know. I enjoy reading useless trivia books and will just scan encyclopedias for fun.

Me too! I love encyclopedia! I love to search random subjects on the net, too. Yeah, I hate it when people don't appreciate what I know!

I used to when I was younger, but not so much now.

This probably sounds a bit morbid, but I like to browse on sites like Wikipedia and the IMDB for obscure actors/actresses who may or may not be dead. I often revisit these pages thinking: "Ah, I wonder if he's snuffed it yet!" :lol:

I do this sometimes but only because I tend to be totally out of the loop when it comes to any celebrities and often miss when they die.
