Do you remember the date One Direction started their hiatus? Or the last time the five of them were seen together? 

Me either. But for thousands (millions actually feels more accurate) they could tell you those exact dates and more obscure facts without a moment of hesitation. And I’ll tell you a secret. I’ve never understood it. At least, I didn’t understand it until I found myself under the spell of a queer pop band.
