       @lowqualityfacts They came up with the idea after they discovered a “great princess” had said: “let them eat sliced bread*”.*) Fun fact: the quote actually mentions bread, not cake.

       @lowqualityfacts The guillotine's use for executions was inspired by a piece of cockney rhyming slang: "loaf of bread" = "head".

       @lowqualityfacts True that. Then Guillotin decided to make a bigger version and see what happens if he stuck his neck in there. He quickly learned what happens. His wife, Guillotine, discovered him. She had the foresight of not sticking her neck in there, but instead patented the device. That's where we get the name of the device.

       @lowqualityfacts actual fact: the last death by Guillotine happened in 1977 in France. Rare fact. I looked it up again to be certain and it happened today September 10th. Wooeowoow #french

       @lowqualityfacts That's the origin of the phrase, 'the best thing since sliced bread".

       @lowqualityfactsThis is, in fact, why the two end slices of the loaf are referred to as the heel and the head.

       @lowqualityfacts this is why head and bread rhyme.

       @lowqualityfacts "I'm surprised that so many people don't know this."I'm not sure whether I enjoy the facts more or the little comments which accompany them.

       @lowqualityfacts That's why the guillotine was never used in the USA. The bread is shitty, soft and spongy, it couldn't be cut. 😂

       @lowqualityfacts For a fun weekend, try the following: 1. Google "lucid decapitation." 2. Read about the subject while eating bread.
