For those lonely folk who pass away with no next of kin and no one to claim them at death, there will be at least one person at their funeral: a poet.

What started as a small project in Amsterdam has now grown into a country-wide competition.

The word "flyting" comes from the Old English word for "quarrel." Something like today's freestyle rap battles, the purpose of flyting was to craft poetic insults so devastating to your competitor that they'd be too insulted to muster a comeback.

He survived all of them and lived to the age of 71.

When Queen Elizabeth paid a royal visit to the set of Game of Thrones in Northern Ireland, she refused to sit on the Iron Throne for legal reasons. As series co-creator David Benioff told Esquire, "Apparently the Queen of England is not allowed to sit on a foreign throne… This is an esoteric rule we didn't know about until that moment."
