Product Description
Book Description
From the phenomenally successful AQA text answer service – the latest collection of the wittiest, wackiest and wisest answers around.
Book Description
A brilliant answer can be a response to a brilliant question - arcane, fiendishly complicated or something that we wished we'd thought to ask ourselves - or it can spring from nowhere, a fact-packed and funny retort to an everyday query. If someone sensible enough to have our number in their phone asked the title of Sandie Shaw's last UK chart single, the answer would be 'Nothing Less Than Brilliant', which got to number 66 in 1994. Nobody has yet, but let Sandie's swansong be the theme for the following smorgasbord of essential and non-essential but mightily entertaining information. New in this year's book are some of the most bizarre questions ever asked - "If a man stands alone in a field speaking, and if there is no woman around him to hear, is he still wrong" to some of the dumbest answers from would be researchers (in a test, when asked how many points you get going through a redlight, one applicant answered "Unfortunately dear, you will not get a point driving through the red light because it is against the driving rules.") all taken from 15 million questions that have been texted to 63336.
