C’mon dude. As a history teacher, I can tell you that it is definitely possible to fire a gun without arms.
Just FYI, factoid has been misused for long enough that it now has an official second, contradictory definition:
A briefly stated and usually trivial fact.
If you’re a former English teacher you should be aware that language changes and while “factoid” was originally coined to mean a made up fact, the term is currently mostly used to refer to small inconsequential facts.
A gunman doesn’t cease to be a gunman if he’s disarmed. Though he can’t be a gunman if he wasn’t armed in the first place.
Wouldn’t it be a pleonasm? Tautology is more about the logic realm, specifically about repeating an argument or a statement as it they were different. Here “inaccurate factoid” is merely inaccurate vocabulary.
Vikings had horns on their helmets
I like to believe that dinosaurs (especially stegosauruses) had lovely singing voices, because its nice and doesn’t hurt anybody.
how loud could their operas get? what range of octaves are possible with the range of species? could they beat box? were there ventriloquists?
That Napoleon was short
Spartans were a dominant military force. They were actually kind of a shitty military force who was really good at PR.
The Spartan Hegemony only lasted 30 years, and only because they kind of glory-hogged the aftermath of the Greco-Persian war after nearly losing the war due to their refusal to muster.
At Thermopylae 300 Spartans fought to the last man, along with 700 Athenians and more from other cities.
