References
- The daft punk's second entry is a reference to Narbonic where super-intelligent hamsters use android bodies.
- "Dangling Chads" were a deciding feature in the assumed stolen 2000 US Presidential Election.
- The decent lumberjack's third factoid mentions Monty Python's ubiquitous "The Lumberjack Song".
- The drowned sailor's third factoid is a reference to Sailor Moon.
- The Dyspepsi-Cola General's factoids all cock a snook at Michael Jackson, the sometime face of Pepsi. Particularly: his love of plastic surgery; the song "Black or White"; and the video for the song "Thriller" in which Michael plays an unlikely werewolf.
