: In 1998 Manic Street Preachers scored their first UK No.1 single with 'If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next'. The group's 19th hit and the first Welsh act to have a No.1 single since Shakin' Stevens in 1985. The song is in the Guinness World Records as the longest title for a No.1 single without brackets.

- The 'this might make you sound smart in the cafeteria queue tidbit': Go into the darkest room that you can find, one where there’s no light at all, and spend a few minutes with your eyes closed. Then, open them up and take a look around. While you’d expect to be staring into pitch-blackness, you’ll actually notice that you’re seeing a sort of dark gray shade. And that color has a name: It’s called “eigengrau.” You're welcome.

Go thee well
