There are so many useful nuggets of information to be found in The Madman's Library, Edward Brooke-Hitching's excellent collection of the strangest books, manuscripts and other literary curiosities, but the best part was finding out that 'fun thrusters' used to be London slang for homosexuals.
It's not my place to stumble into with my big, clumsy cis feet, but I sure hope somebody takes that saying back and owns it, because that slang fucking rules.
