Astounding trivia tends to be poor conversation fodder. (though if you like that sort of thing, TIL on reddit is the place for you)
Person 1: [Astounding bit of trivia]
Person 2: Yep, that's astounding.
Person 4: I did not know that.
Person 3: Not that astounding. I learned that in 3rd grade.
Person 2: Well, I thought it was.

Person 1: Hey, nice person in the corner! How's it going?
Nice person: Fine.
