It's a great medium for trivia and hobbies, but not the place for reasoned, reflective judgment. Suprisingly often, discussions degenerate into acrimony, insults and flames.

In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it.
Robert A. Heinlein
In wilderness I sense the miracle of life, and behind it our scientific accomplishments fade to trivia.
Charles Lindbergh
There was a [trivia] question on when did we start putting the inside of the sandwich, [we] call 'em the guts, when did we start giving those to people and it was from the uproar of 1989.
Kara Weisbroad
It's a trivia-type thing, but the RCW is wrong, and it should be changed.
Roger Sherman
As soon as it's over, I look forward to it, can't wait for the next year. It's post-trivia depression.
Kathy Venrooy
Taken up with Hugh and Clark swapping baseball trivia. Clark often detailed yet another financial reversal. On the day he told us his house had burned down, we all, I think, accepted the news as somehow unexciting and inevitable.
John Metcalf
Listening to the latest chart busters in exotic locations will be almost akin to watching a travel show with a difference. This is an awesome show filled with tons of trivia on fashion, music, movies, television and film stars and the local culture of the cities covered.

This time there will be raffles, games and contests throughout the day. We are bringing in the Submission Board Game staff to conduct tournaments for prizes, we will be throwing out trivia questions for prizes and much more. This will help pass the time while you wait in line. We really believe it will add something to the atmosphere and it's something else that hasn't been done.

I didn't win, the Town of Herndon won. That is not trivia. The mood of the town has been one that they have wanted to change for a while. We campaigned on issues that were relevant to the problems.
Charlie Waddell
The newspaper takes so long to read. Plus, it has so much in it that no longer applies to my life. So much trivia. I don't fault them for that ? all of it applies to some people's lives but not mine. I feel that I have better things to do.
Jean Anderson
We don't want a memory that is going to store every bit of every experience. We would be overwhelmed with clutter of useless trivia ... We're probably better off having ... a more selective coding of info.
Daniel Schacter
We get worked up over trivia, while pushing the real problems facing us under the carpet. Firstly, most people forget that the stricture against depicting Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) in an illustration applies only to Muslims. Secondly, the offending (and offensive) cartoons first appeared in September without provoking a reaction except for some mild protests.
Irfan Husain
We've always done trivia. It's tradition. And we also have football bingo, a food contest and plenty of Dollar Store prizes. It's kind of like another holiday for us.

You can test your knowledge of music trivia, but at the same time have a good time.
John Ugolini
Despite last-ditch efforts to try to reclaim his place in history, I think that's too little, too late. I think he'll be viewed as fair or mediocre. Harsher critics might even say poor. I think he'll become an answer to a trivia question at some point. As far as a lasting impact, I don't really see it.
Joseph Marbach
About everyone on staff helps out for trivia.

When you consider the incomes of professional sports figures compared with anyone else -- it's clear that Americans overvalue trivia.
Estelle Ramey
[The game of] Trivia, like camp, is a product of the heart, not of the mind. It's a social disease, it's little things for little minds. It's the last time you're able to act immature, to act like the college kid.
