fact-checker

Fact-checkers are websites (run by an organization) that checks for the validity of rumors and widespread claims of a certain matter. For example, fact-checkers often debunk the claims of certain political moguls. Without fact-checkers, the internet would be a chaotic place of misinformation.

dad fact

That weird random bit of information that a Dad will suddenly drop on you after you ask a fairly simple question. And is almost always 100% correct.
Me: why do international pilots need to know English?

Dad: It is actually called Aviation English. It was implemented because of a really bad plane crash back in the 1970's caused partly by language issues.
Me: *Googles it, sees hes correct* that's a Dad Fact!
