I mean, like, acktually ... 'factoids' are incorrect facts:
The term was coined in 1973 by American writer Norman Mailer to mean a piece of information that becomes accepted as a fact even though it is not actually true, or an invented fact believed to be true because it appears in print
Don't care, subbed to !factoid@sh.itjust.works anyways.
