(Rob, I honestly can't see what qualifies Tristram Shandy as a cult classic.)

I'm not the one you asked, but if I had to guess what the pre-fork taggers were about when they bestowed that label, it was probably something similar to Paul Riddell's personal definition of a "cult classic" movie as (from memory here) "one seen fifty times by that many people."
