16 Curious Things You're Probably Too Shy to Google

 There are some things we use or do all the time without knowing the true  reason behind them. Instead of taking them for granted, find out what  the most curious facts about everyday objects you never had time to  Google.  Why are plane windows rounded? Why are sneakers called sneakers? What is  the right way to peel a banana? You’ll be surprised to find out the  answers to these questions.  Did you think croissants were from France? If yes, then you’re not  alone.

Trailers were originally shown at the end of a feature film screening,  but the practice didn’t last long because patrons would leave the  theater soon after the films ended.  Barbie’s full name is Barbara Millicent Roberts. And, she doesn’t come  from Malibu, but a fictional place called Willows in Wisconsin instead. No one can imagine any electronics to be associated with water. But the  USB logo has a subtle link to water. It is modeled after the trident of  Poseidon, the god of the Sea and other waters.
