No, as hard as it to believe, the band’s biggest ever money-earner wasn’t one of their several multi-platinum albums or even their appearance in the Wayne’s World movies—it was from the Guitar Hero: Aerosmith rhythm action game....

10John Woolman Woolman was a quiet Quaker in 18th-century Pennsylvania. His hobbies included tailoring clothes, enjoying spiritual nature hikes, and taking unarmed solo expeditions deep into dangerous Indian territories.

The consequences have been enormous. Billions of dollars’ worth of intellectual property, US government policy secrets, and military technology are only a few examples of stolen secrets.

“One cannot trust people whose cuisine is so bad,” French President Jacques Chirac was overheard snarkily commenting to Vladimir Putin in 2005. “The only thing they have ever done for European agriculture is mad cow disease.” Ironically, less than a decade later, in the 2012 San Pellegrino World’s Best Restaurants awards, Britain had three eateries place in the top 15, one more than France. Other misunderstandings regarding British cuisine are often purely linguistic… bangers are sausages, and so are toads....

Ad hominem – ‘To the man’ arguments are ones which attack the opponent to discredit him without addressing the dispute. “Dr Madeup is an adulterer, therefore you should ignore his medical advice.” Occasionally a person’s character is meaningful to a discussion but only when directly related to the matter at hand. Ad hominem attacks are always amusing to spot because they make the arguer appear like a petulant child....
