    My favorite Halifax fun fact: In 1917, a munitions ship exploded in Halifax Harbor. To commemorate the event, the City Council created ‘Splodey, the Halifax explosion mascot.

    In addition, each public broadcast of Shaggy’s “Mr. Boombastic” is followed by a moment of silence

      IIRC that event is, to this day, the most powerful non-nuclear man-made explosion to ever happen.

        Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

        Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      My favorite Twatt, Scotland fun fact is that their mascot is Mr. Sploogy.
