Sometimes we don't realize how big the storage of our brains is. We might forget some facts or happenings now and then, but it's only natural when considering we have to digest new information every day! However, some snippets of knowledge appear to be unforgettable so that even the most random and useless thing might be stuck in your brain forever.
So, I got curious about what worthless bit of trivia or knowledge is forever stuck in our pandas' heads! Here's what people had to share.

Not trivia, just a Spanish word my nutty, Mexican friend from college made me learn, for some weird reason. It's the word for "ear, nose and throat" - otorrinolaringologo. I've found myself repeating it over and over in my head whenever I'm in a lot of pain, especially with migraines. I don't do it intentionally, it just happens. Thanks for the subconscious coping mechanism, Hermès!
