And his friend, Joe Bennett, does too. They both have small bladders but more often it’s just to get a moment of quiet, a break from work, or because it’s the only way they know how to politely end conversations. So they created a functional meditative guide to help people who suffer from social anxiety and deal with it in this very particular way.

A Life on the Toilet
Author: Kat Ward
Publisher: Createspace Independent Pub
ISBN: 9781468109986
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 420
Book Description
A true account of Kats battle with both physical and mental ill health and then a shock diagnosis of Bowel Cancer. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, at other times utterly pathetic, Kat pulls no punches as she describes everything from symptoms through foul tests and treatments up to the potentially life-saving operation itself and beyond, where complications seemed never-ending. Language is not always polite either, so not for the easily offended! The book is not recommended for those going through similar. It is likely to scare them shitless for a start! Readers must remember, Kat Ward is renowned for Bad Luck, Bad Choices and Bad Coping Mechanisms. At the very least, the book may send someone to the GP to get an early test.

The Best Toilet Book in the World
Author: Thorey Kristin Thorisdottir
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1477246819
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 183
Book Description
I grew up with my dad asking frequently where the newspaper was, while my brother was occupying it for half an hour on the toilet every day. Today I live with a man who has a whole library sitting in the bathroom. Thus I started to think that what the world seriously needs is a TOILET BOOK. The book is nonfiction and contains clips from my life from summer 2011 until October 2012, or since I decided to move to another country and get married. When you move to another country you have to face several challenges, amongst others being a speechless idiot, having almost no social life what so ever, desperation for friends, trying to be cool, attending some horrific Danish courses, trying to survive the first year of marriage and figure out where the beer is cheapest, to name a few. I have tried to set the book up in a comic way since you have to have a humour for yourself to survive the first year in a new country! Everyone who has come into my life during that year is now a victim and a real part of the book! Summary: This book is about everything and nothing, but mostly nothing. Enjoy, and remember to flush!

Me Talk Pretty One Day
Author: David Sedaris
Publisher: Back Bay Books
ISBN: 0316073652
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
A new collection from David Sedaris is cause for jubilation. His recent move to Paris has inspired hilarious pieces, including Me Talk Pretty One Day, about his attempts to learn French. His family is another inspiration. You Cant Kill the Rooster is a portrait of his brother who talks incessant hip-hop slang to his bewildered father. And no one hones a finer fury in response to such modern annoyances as restaurant meals presented in ludicrous towers and cashiers with 6-inch fingernails. Compared by The New Yorker to Twain and Hawthorne, Sedaris has become one of our best-loved authors. Sedaris is an amazing reader whose appearances draw hundreds, and his performancesincluding a jaw-dropping impression of Billie Holiday singing I wish I were an Oscar Meyer weinerare unforgettable. Sedariss essays on living in Paris are some of the funniest hes ever written. At last, someone even meaner than the French! The sort of blithely sophisticated, loopy humour that might have resulted if Dorothy Parker and James Thurber had had a love child. Entertainment Weekly on Barrel Fever Sidesplitting Not one of the essays in this new collection failed to crack me up; frequently I was helpless. The New York Times Book Review on Naked
