Archer isn't a Lord anymore. Stripped of the title when he was locked up. 


EDIT: I stand corrected he still is.

This one has confirmed my belief that humanity is regressing very quickly! The fella from LMFAO( the ****s who were shuffling every day) is the son of the founder of Motown Records, Berry Gordy. 

I was less surprised to discover that said musical abomination is the biggest selling single ever in Australia.

No,it's in second place.

I normally stick up for the Aussies but that's an appalling top ten.

On average, humans eat 42 bananas a year and no monkeys.
