Description

Psycho, as in the 1960 film by Alfred Hitchcock.

One of the few films to have a film made about it being made. Remember that from 2012?

Hitchcock, it was called.


Flushing toilets don't quite get the same treatment. There's not really and ode to the throne.

This was noted 15th century philosopher Michel de Montaigne when he said:

‘Kings and philosophers shit — and so do ladies.’

Bam!
