Synopsis
This is a book containing all the completely useless and totally gross trivia you have been looking for. It focuses on bugs, diseases, and deformities, and asks questions like: "How exactly do "crabs" cause such intense itching around one's private parts?"
Musings
There is not really too much I can say about this one. It was a quick read, but I enjoyed getting the short snaps of useless information. Stories are presented in 2-3 page descriptions investigating the origins and answers of each totally random question. You have to have a icky side to truly be interested in some of the perverse and disgusting topics. So, why do fish fart? Read it and find out!
I would recommend it to anyone who wants it for a bathroom reader. Short and (not quite so) sweet.
