    I know this one

    He invented Cornflakes in 1878 in the hope that plain food would stop people masturbating. Mr Kellogg, the man who created Corn Flakes, produced the cereal in the late 19th century and marketed it as a “healthy, ready-to-eat anti-masturbatory morning meal”. ... tbf I've never cracked one off over a bowl of cereal.

    Terrordales Nightshift

    One of Ingmar Bergman's finest from his later career, far superior to Bertolucci's Last Mango in Waitrose.
