Virtuous people, interesting.. How different would be the world if people cared more about their actions, than their achievements and possessions?
"In ancient China, the great philosopher Confucius championed the path of virtue, rounding it all up into his notion of the “Gentleman.”
Confucius was largely ignored in his own day. When he died in 479 B.C., he left behind perhaps 3,000 students, who devoted themselves to preserving and propagating their master’s precepts."
I found a list of facts that 'everyone should know' whatever that means, I wont post it all here ofc, just one that caught my eye. It's not specifically funny or goofy tho..
"The shiniest living thing on earth is the Pollia Condensata, an African fruit."

Brazil and France almost went to war over lobsters in 1961
Admiral Paulo Moreira da Silva, Brazil's Navy expert [...] during the general discussions, argued that for Brazil to accept the French scientific thesis that a lobster would be considered a fish when it "leaps" on the seafloor, it would be required in the same way to accept the Brazilian premise that when a kangaroo "hops," it would be considered a bird

Wasps can actually get intoxicated by eating rotting fruit that has fallen to the ground, this plays a large part in why they seem so aggressive at different times during the year. They get drunk and think it will be fun to start a fight they can't win.

Did you know Shakespeare used a 'your mom' joke in a play? xD Reads pretty funny:
Demetrius: "Villain, what hast thou done?"
Aaron: "That which thou canst not undo."
Chiron: "Thou hast undone our mother."
Aaron: "Villain, I have done thy mother."

Vinegar fly male (called fruit fly sometimes) produces spermatozoids with such a long flagellum that it can be up to 20 times longer than the fly itself. If a human male would do the same, his spermatozoids would be around 40 meters long.
All of the three thousand species of centipedes have an odd number of segments. Every segment except the first has one pair of legs, but the legs from the last segment are never used for locomotion and often are oddly shaped and have specialized functions.
90% of the cells in a human body aren't human: archaeobacteria mainly, but also bacteria and fungi, and a few multicellular parasites or their eggs. However that 90% is just a tiny part of the total mass of the body.

Here's a goofy fact about Goofy the Disney character: Goofy's full name was originally Dippy Dawg, later it was George G. Geef, and in some more recent sources he has been called either G. G. Goof or Goofus D. Dawg!
Edit: since someone already mentioned a similar fact about Goofy, here's a different fact: even though venom is usually considered a property of snakes, spiders and such, there is actually one known venomous primate! The slow loris can secrete a toxin from its scent gland which allows them to have a toxic bite.

If the Sun disappeared instantaneously, we would not notice it until about 8 minutes after it had happened. The Earth would be lit and even will continue to orbit it for 8 minutes due to the light and gravity wave travel time from the Sun to the Earth.

not sure if it's goofy, but I think it's adorable and silly!: scientist trained a little jumping spider named Kim to jump on command to study how her legs work for use in robotics, etc.

Three men once sued NASA (The National Aeronautics and Space Administration) for trespassing...on Mars.
My favorite actor is Jack Black. I love his sense of humor, joyful nature, and musical talent. But it's hard to say that it came from his parents... both of whom are literal rocket scientists. But he prefers to be called a rock (n' roll) scientist!
Never fear, short kings! There is now a tried and true method to actually increase your physical height (albeit temporarily). All you have to do to get taller...is spend some time in space! Astronauts have come back to Earth a few inches taller without gravity pushing them down. But it's okay if you aren't willing to be a space voyager, you're perfect the way you are!
I didn't start off intending to do silly space facts, especially since outer space stinks...no really! When in space, astronauts reported smells of "burning metal," "a distinct odor of ozone, an acrid smell," "walnuts and brake pads," "gunpowder" and even "burnt almond cookie". Which, I don't know what I was expecting space to smell like, but it wasn't my mom's failed baking pandemic phase with burnt cookies.
Hopefully, you discovered lots of new goofy facts, you deserve it since you are...out of this world!
