By now you've probably heard that Radiohead's frontman Thom Yorke appears to be the go-to man for all things dysfunctional in the Iranian bedroom. The best part is that no one knows why.
We're a little late to the party, but in case you missed it, Iranian journalist Sobhan Hassanvand tweeted this pic earlier this week of a book he found in Iran's Mashhad bookstore three years ago featuring the moody frontman looking pretty serious. About what you ask? Nookie, we say.
The book is meant to address marital problems for Iranians, laid bare. But is Radiohead not quite cutting it? Don't worry, this manual cover features US author John Updike, too.
Behold, the book in question:
This Twitter goldmine sparked a manhunt for more Radiohead non sequiturs that landed the Internet in Russia, where the British singer is featured on an bench advertisement. Here, Yorke's solemn face promises to help the ailing with things like skin problems, fatigue and insomnia. Who knew?
Between the high-tension nuclear deal and the Saudi-led airstrikes in Yemen, we say it's high time for a distraction in the Islamic Kingdom. Meanwhile, this weekend enjoy some news about Iran and Russia that's not about the Syrian conflict.
Thank you Thom, for all you do.
