A reader emailed me of the weirdest books ever today from Amazon. It’s called “How to Good-Bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way?”
by Hiroyuki Nishigaki.
Here’s a review of the book:
I’ve only had this book for a day or so, and I haven’t even thought about reading it from start to finish, but it is pretty gosh darn funny. At the end of the book, the author (Niroyuki Nishigaki) thanks everyone for “finishing reading what I have written in bad English.” Bad English indeed! I’ll share one of my favorite lines with you and if you think it’s funny, I suggest you purchase this book. “Besides shooting out a big blank from your buttock, you can feel as if your root chakra leaked sweet hot mucus.” That line doesn’t make any sense, but it’s pretty great. Sometimes I like to open the book up to random pages and read passages for a good laugh.
Enjoy!
I am so buying this book, it would be a sin not to have it. But.. what other weird titled books are out there? The
British book-trade magazine, the Bookseller, has for more than 20 years
run a competition to find the oddest book title of the year.
These are all real books, by the way.
1. Bombproof Your Horse
2. Procrastination and Task Avoidance: Theory, Research and Treatment. I think I might just buy this one actually…
3. Tattooed Mountain Women and Spoon Boxes of Daghestan
4. How to Enjoy Sex While Conscious
5. Proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Nude Mice
6. Oral Sadism and the Vegetarian Personality
7. How to Avoid Huge Ships.
One reader left the following comment in Amazon:
“This
book lacks criteria for discerning between huge ships and merely really
big ships. Some well-designed lists, charts or colorful pop-up sections
would have been nice for readers who were unsure what size of ship they
were avoiding.” 3/5 stars.
8. Blue Eye-shadow Should Absolutely Be Illegal
9. Greek Rural Postmen and their Cancellation Numbers
10. Developments in Dairy Cow Breeding and Management: New Opportunities to Widen the Uses of Straw
11. The Prostate: A Guide for Men and the Women Who Love Them
12. Wood Carving with a Chainsaw
13. Pedagogical Lexicography: A Case Study of Arab Nurses as Dictionary Users
14. Parish Ministers’ Hats

21. Knitting with Dog Hair: Better a Sweater from a Dog You Know and Love than A Sheep You’ll Never Meet
