Trivia Crack. Many — myself included — once viewed this trivia trend as a useless time-suck, slowly leeching the life out of our unsuspecting friends and family through their phones. But as the Trivia Crack-heads fanatically infect the population, a shift is occurring: Trivia Crack is shifting from a burden to a boon, and perhaps closing the gap between actual smart people and the rest of us.
Most people are all-too familiar with and all-too annoyed with their one or two friends who are the smart ones. No, I am not talking about well-educated smart people; I am talking about smart-ass smart people. These are the ones who find it crucial to sprinkle every conversation with nearly-unrelated trivia tidbits and fun-facts, seeping with superiority. The average phone-obsessed, 21st century normal person can’t help but become discouraged. These friends, acquaintances, and family members are often delightful people, but their tendency to correct and up-stage can be wearing. Well, the solution has arrived: rather than politely resolving the issue or patiently bearing through it, Trivia Crack offers us the option of passive-aggressively responding with our own pointless facts and figures.
With the help of Trivia Crack, millions are now stuffing both their minds and those of their friends with a plethora of knowledge. This is the birth of a new era of information: recycled minutia pertaining little to daily life. Trivia Crack is an instrumental tool in the development of intellectual circles among those previously viewed as the shallow and phone-obsessed. Welcome to the new world, where Trivia Crack is making a difference and bettering lives. Next time your friend approaches you inquiring if you happen to know who invented the Chinese torture box or if you can name Paul Auster’s favorite city . . . you’ll know.
Thank you, Trivia Crack.
