A funny collection of quirky observations and modern folk wisdom—that may or may not be true.
Why does the dominant partner in any sexual relationship usually sleep on the side of the bed nearest the door? Is there a direct relationship between the length of hemlines and the state of the national economy? Are odd numbers evil? And why do drivers with hats drive twenty miles per hour slower than those without?
Author, broadcaster, and columnist Peter FitzSimons is the ideal guide to the weird world of the popular theory, the urban myth, and the land of “did you know?” His offbeat, insightful, and painfully funny takes on our world—and topics ranging from relationship phenomena to street traffic—will have readers laughing out loud about human behavior and beliefs, and our ongoing struggle to make sense of life’s mysteries.
