‘This may be my favourite opening line to an article ever’
You don’t have to be a Smashing Pumpkins fan to enjoy this (but it helps).
This may be my favorite opening line to an article that I've ever seen in my entire life. pic.twitter.com/HOWqFymYNk

You can read the whole article here if you’d like to find out if there’s more of the same.
The photo caption is pretty great, too.

Hadn’t spotted that.
GOD. That sentence needs to be hand-lettered onto the finest parchment by a master calligrapher, with illuminated caps and gold leaf and the whole 9 yards, then framed and hung in the goddamned LOUVRE.

If you’re still wondering what all the fuss is about, have a listen to this. Well, have a go at least.
These are the relevant lyrics in case, like us, you didn’t make it that far.
She’s the one for me
She’s all I really need, oh yeah
She’s the one for me
Emptiness is loneliness and loneliness is cleanliness
And cleanliness is godliness, and God is empty just like me
Intoxicated with the madness, I’m in love with my sadness
Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms
The fashion victims chew their charcoal teeth
Here’s what Billy Corgan made of it.
