FUCK ME FACTS!

Amazing things about Tuesday, May 11:
» The waltz was introduced to Britain in 1812 and immediately condemned as immoral. Aha - so that's why the old folks still persist in having those tea dances, despite being wired to the comfy chair for the rest of the week.
» And how times have changed: Passengers on the Berlin underground were invited to buy thongs instead of travel tickets during the city's annual Love Parade two years ago. Men and women could buy black or white G-strings, which entitled them to travel on buses and the underground.
» It was reported in 2000 that Gazza was going to move to Australia to continue his career there. But he never went.
» Nine months to the day after Marlon Brando married Anna Kashfi, she gave birth to a baby boy on this day in 1958. Now that's what we call doing things by the book.
» Cliff Richard made his stage debut in, ahem, "Five Finger Exercise" in Bromley, Kent, in 1970. We expect he was gripping.
» If birthdays don't start improving soon, we're going to move on to the deaths: The only person (kind of) worth mentioning today is Jeremy Paxman (54), but only because he reminds us of Chris Morris in the Day Today.
» British sandwhich week begins today! Treat yourself to your filling of choice (though we'd rather have toasties).

About Us

According to Marxist theory, cultural forms such as opera, classical music and the literary works of Shakespeare all fall under the heading of high culture. Low culture refers to a wide variety of cultural themes that are characterised by their consumption by the masses. We might not be Marxists, but we do know we loved Footballers Wives. If you do too, you'll know what this is all about.
