Sh*t Happens: The Book: Somewhere, Someone is Having a Worse Day Than You: Regrettable Realities That Really Happened to Unlucky Chumps the World
The lure of the morbid. The fascination of really bad news. The strange thrill of things going spectacularly wrong. Tragic, sensational, spine-chilling, and addictively entertaining, it’s The Darwin Awards meets The Stupidest Things Ever Said. In story after story we meet the star-crossed, the extremely unlucky, and the fatally foolish. Sure—it’s grim, sometimes ghastly. But isn’t it nice to know that someone, somewhere, had a worse day than you?
Sh*t happens.
Sometimes it’s natural: A driver goes for the ride of his life when a 100-mph gust blows his truck off the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in New York. (He survives the steep plunge into the Hudson River.
Sometimes it’s supernatural: The woman who peels an artichoke only to have it explode in her hand.
Short-sighted: A rattlesnake owner kisses his beloved pet, and discovers that the affection isn’t mutual.
Delightful: A tanker truck carrying liquid chocolate splits open in a traffic accident, drawing children from miles around.
Unexpected: A folding bed traps and nearly kills a man.
Heartbreaking: Art restorers accidentally dissolve the ink off a newly discovered Da Vinci drawing.
Gross: From the brain of a man complaining of mental instability, doctors remove a four-inch worm.
And grosser: A diner discovers—in the most revolting way possible—a rodent along with his fried chicken.
And even, seemingly, cosmic justice: An incensed homeowner catches a mouse and decides to teach it a lesson by tying a kerosene-soaked rag to its tail and setting it on fire. The mouse flees; the man’s house burns down.
Sh*t Happens is 325 pages and measures approximately 4 X 6 inches. ISBN-10 : 0761144366
