There have been literally thousands of really rubbish surveys done in recent years. Who can forget the yearly
'Rear of the Year' nonsense and the
Grattan catalogue 'Mother of the Year' shit show?
Well, take a bow Lowry Gallery in Manchester for the most pointless survey in the history of mankind, unless the intention was to portray northerners as the type of hairy simpletons who twatted about with a bone at the start of '2001: A Space Odyssey'.
Somehow they managed to get 50,000 fuckwits to vote, and how the fuckwits have spoken. 'Most Northern Male'? What the fuck does that even mean? Anyway, Morrissey took the title, beating off some stiff celebrity northern competition meaning that George Formby could only scrape second place.
I'm sure that if you have the slightest interest you can check out the results online (though there are more interesting sites where you can watch a freshly-painted wall drying). There was a shock defeat for 'Eastenders' though, as they lost out to 'Coronation Street' for the title of 'Most Northern Soap'. If only 'Take The High Road' was still about. Mrs Mack would be fucking fuming.
