A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

IT S A MAD WORLD AND WE RE ALL PART OF IT!What exactly is a Teeth Itcher? Well, it could be one of a number of things. Anything from the irritating pseudo-Australian whose voice goes up at the end of every sentence as if they re always asking a question to the inappropriateness of a cartoon character tie in a high-powered business meeting. This entertaining resource covers an eclectic group of subjects such as contemporary fashion, quirky current language use, the commuter train, the work averse, modern technology, crisp flavours and improvised newspaper-umbrellas. What brings them altogether nicely as Teeth Itchers is that they irritate, they niggle, they frustrate, they rile, they irk, and they annoy in equal measure.Littered with amusing anecdotes and keen observations, this takes the unspoken that nobody s really big-boned, the fast train rarely gets you there any quicker, and barbeque-flavoured crisps are actually quite a scary thought and put out there in the open, where everyone can see it.So, if you find yourself internally tutting on a daily basis at social frictions and the absurdity of life, make your merry way through this book, chuckling and nodding in agreement as you go, and celebrate the sheer lunacy of all that goes on around us.Without it, the world would be a much duller place!
