The Great Big Song Intro Quiz
I made this!
How well do you know your song intros? think you can name 300 of them?
Most of them are from the 80s & 90s, back when songs were songs.
The intros average 10 seconds, some being as small as under 2 seconds because they're so instantly recognisable and some longer to give you a chance.
If you get stuck (you will!) here are the answers.
The only prize is a trip down memory lane for you, and perhaps the frustration of going "OMG I know that song! what is it?!" :)

There was an urban myth back in the late-80s
that they had made them, but 'concerned parents' and the like had campaigned to suppress them. I figured at the time that it was bollocks, but even then we were all becoming such safety-obsessed weaklings that it seemed like the sort of thing that could happen.

Beaver Cheese - One man's quest for all things cheese
I love this site, even if it does sound like a by-product of a sexually transmitted disease.
Basically a guy has set himself the challenge to taste and review ALL the cheeses mentioned in the famous Monty Python Cheese Shop sketch. Yes, that includes the famous 'Venezuelan Beaver Cheese' which he has sadly beeen unable to find.
His cat also features in his reviews, as it has a strange fondness for certain cheeses, and dislike for others...I don't understand cats.

Obama: USA's first female president
A Washington Post journalist asserts that Obama's most recent presidential address contains so many passive verbs that his political acumen and biological sex should be questioned.
Did I mention that not only was the analysis of his speech apparently equal parts arbitrary and confused, but the claims about correlations between the use of the passive voice and gender or 'passive attitudes' are completely unsupported by any evidence?

Awesome hotel reviews
For a place in Bakewell - some of them are extremely positive but some... aren't. My favourite:
As part of our order we asked to have two hot chocolates ( adding up to £5.50 ), and when they arrived, it was surprising to find a large teapot with watery brown liquid inside,with no taste of chocolate at all. We mentioned this to the waiter,and another teapot arrived ( half the size of before ) , and again with with liquid totally lacking in chocolate ? Perplexed, I went to the mature "lady" at the bar who took my order, and she was putting on her coat. After firstly giving me a look to kill, and then being told of my experience, she then snapped" So what do you want me to do about it?, to which I replied "Well, I would like hot chocolate which tastes of chocolate" if that's OK ?, only then for her to repeat my words back in a sarcastic loud voice !!!

I don't understand how the universe can be more than 28 billion light years across
If matter can't travel beyond the speed of light, and the big bang happened 14 billion years ago, then the furthest that matter can have traveled in that time is just under 14 billion light years in all directions. Unless there were lots of big bangs that took place simultaneously all over the place.
