Hockey and Doughnuts: The Extremely Canadian Life of Tim Horton

We can enjoy this list of interesting facts because we are entertained by our brains and their capacity to process and generate the endless stream of information we encounter. Some of these facts will seem unusual, silly, or funny, but all of them are true. We have not included any of those things that might make us seem more intelligent than we really are. We are sure you will enjoy these. Our brains are so good at processing information that we can tell you almost any fact about something and most people will believe it is true. This ability of our brains to generate information is called confabulation. Our brains do this when we want to help us remember facts, even if the facts are not actually true. For example, many people have seen a sign saying “the average American drinks 164 gallons of coffee a year” or “the average person sleeps for 1 hour every 8 hours.”
