Hello, from planet Soletronus (that one was corny). Here for a second to put you on to some cool and weird stuff that I bet you just didn’t know (most likely do the fact that normal people don’t sit around thinking about this, but whatever). Being that we spit in the face of mediocrity (while giving it a noogy), you can always expect the good people of Soletron to bring you the most rare and exclusive content. Things you probably wouldn’t think about without us. But, hey, that’s what we’re here for. Now without further ado, I present to you 10 Things I Bet You Didn’t Know.
