Eccentrically compiled, irresponsibly written and insanely edited, "Shite's Unoriginal Miscellany" blends humor and knowledge together in a superior recipe for instant laughter! This essential handbook is far from being just another collection of useless information. It is in fact a collection of use-less, misleading, and possibly dangerous information. Among a wealth of esoteric, vital or merely fascinating information- 'semaphore signals', 'flowerpot sizes', 'popular assault rifles', 'devices for jogging the memory' and 'ways of escaping from wild animals (probably)' spring to mind immediately- it offers such priceless snippets of information as 'things not to say to your mother on her birthday', 'Elvis sightings', 'carrying a large flat parcel' and, of course, 'things to do with mashed potatoes'. Here too is information that will come in useful when you least expect it, from 'contemporary operas' to 'Buffyisms', and 'safety gloves' to 'fashionable diseases and ailments'.
