The traditional derivation of Lewes (Sussex) from the plural of Old English hlaew 'mound' will not do, not least because of the absence of initial h- in the early spellings. Which of these alternative explanations do we prefer?
Old English laew 'gash' - 51%
Celtic *lexowia 'slope' - 49%

Some people suffer from particularly debilitating combined allergies which eerily mirror crisp flavours, apparently. Imagine. So, which would be your allergies of choice?

That's only true - 20%

Mafro - 31%

This result demonstrates: the power of the watershed.

What causes hiccups?
Overwhelming feelings of guilt - 41%
Sparrows - 59%

Welcome to 'Pop-Star Secrets'! Can you guess Slim Paul's shameful secret? Paul was arrested on Shetland last week for...
Defrauding a charitable organisation - 75%
Sheep worrying - 25%
This result demonstrates: nothing that would stand up in court.

More 'Pop-Star Secrets'! This week, the spotlight falls on Slick Nick. On a Tuesday evening in Brighton, Nick secretly takes...

Which song with 'Wanking' in the title should we put on our forthcoming (yeah, right) CD?
I Am The Son Of A Wanking Monk - 78%
All of the other ones - 22%
This result demonstrates: hmmm, we shall see...

Title for our forthcoming (yeah, right) CD?
"Albanian Jizz Monkeys!" - 25%
That's crap, I'll suggest a title in the Guestbook - 75%

This result demonstrates:
possibly, the appalling under-representation of Albanian jizz monkeys within the franchised population, or their restricted access to portals of suffrage. Not that Albanian jizz monkeys would necessarily ensorse our appropriation of their esteemed moniker for our filthy output. I don't know, really, I don't know, and I don't know how we could ever know, they're cleverer than you'd think, I saw one of them driving a tram on Tuesday and Slick Nick reckons a gang of 'em experimented on him under the pier.

I have seen the future and it's
Jason Orange - 61%
Gordon Brown (texture like sun) - 39%
This result demonstrates: entropy?

A recent survey (this Saturday, by me) suggests there are too many Doctors in this world. What do you think?
