Product Description

Synopsis

"How to Worry Friends and Inconvenience People" is from the writer of the successful and popular blog. The perfect gift for those who have a surreal sense of humour, the book's suggestions include measuring the difficulty of games and puzzles in units of the cubic rube, impressing future employers by demonstrating how well you can ride an imaginary horse, and hiding bubble wrap under your doormat to surprise guests. It is featured in the "Times" and on numerous blogs including geek newsletter NTK.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great gift, 26 Oct 2007
This review is from: How to Worry Friends and Inconvenience People (Hardcover)
Having read some of the earlier reviews I think a note of sanity is called for - I bought this book as a gift, but found it such fun that I decided to keep it and buy another copy. The writer has an impish sense of humour, coupled with wry observations. It is not a challenging book but great fun and an excellent present.

5.0 out of 5 stars Disgusted, 26 Oct 2007
By 
This review is from: How to Worry Friends and Inconvenience People (Hardcover)
I wholeheartedly agree with the previous, previous reviewer. This book is both witless and offensive.

One particular 'suggestion' advises readers to 'ask for sandwich fillings whilst pointing at others'. A little thought on behalf of the book's publishers would have caused them to realise that people taking this 'advice' would result in many, many lost man-minutes over the course of countless lunchtimes.

Not to mention the annoyance caused to the UK's sandwich making sector, already an under appreciated and oft abused (both verbally and physically) community.

Why 'Leila Johnston' (if that is indeed her name) would want to cause worry and inconvenience to people I have no idea.

Mind you, I did like the suggestion about pretending to be a robot.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot better than most books like this, 16 Dec 2007
By 
This review is from: How to Worry Friends and Inconvenience People (Hardcover)
As with all of these books there were a few suggestions that didn't really amuse me, but it has a much higher hit rate than most.
