review 1: I am honestly a little baffled at how a book like this can be so incredibly boring! I love reading books that are filled with utterly useless yet interesting factoids, the title is correct, these kinds of books are great to read when you are in the bathroom (though I do most my reading in the bathtub, so maybe I should be glad the title did not do as stated.)Maybe I am just jaded, but none of these facts were scary, and the ones that could possibly be a little bit on the creepy side either I already knew or the author's attempt at humor was so eye-rollingly bad that I just found myself not caring. And yes, let us talk about that sense (or lack there) of humor, imagine the worst attempt at 'dad jokes' mixed with 'my wife's cooking sucks' and of course toss in a bit of stere... moreotypical family sitcom (flash-backs to Home Improvement incoming) and you have the jokes in this book. I mean, I get it, maybe I am not the target demographic for this humor, but I find crap and fart jokes hilarious and there were just too many! Maybe not having CONSTANT stupid jokes would have made this a little more palatable. Or maybe I needed to be a late 40s dude taking a dump to really enjoy this. But, as the author says in the intro...I already paid for this book and he could care less what I think. YOLOSWAG.
review 2: the book are alright and informative. but the biggest issue is that over half the time the author jokes weren't funny. at times they come off as annoying. i love sarcastic humor, but i was shaking my head in shame or confusion. yet, to his credit that was a lot of jokes to write and they all can't be fun. just wished and few more of them were.a interesting read. if you can find the book on sale. pick a copy up. if anything it will make you think. less

Interesting. I liked the author's sense of humour that was added after the facts.
