Contrary to what you and I think, the correct pronunciation of Nutella is supposedly NEW-TELLA, not NUT-ELLA. Seems barmy, as it's based on nuts, but it's on their website somewhere.

Are we doing real ones or plausible fake ones? Excellent thread if either the latter or both.

Some factoids shamelessly nicked of George Tokai's facebook feed this morning:
Cleopatra lived closer to the time of the building of Pizza Hut that of the Great Pyramid
Oxford University is older than the Aztec civilisation.
It was only 66 years between the first flight and the first flight to the moon.
France was still executing people by Guillotine when the first Star Wars film came out.
Another Star Wars one not from George, in May this year, the release of Phantom Menace will be closer to the release of Return Of The Jedi than to the present day.
If you're over 45 the world population has doubled in your lifetime.
If the history of Earth were compressed to a single year, modern humans would appear on December 31st at about 11:58pm
