恐怖想法词典

English | October 16th, 2024 | ISBN: 0733343600 | 304 pages | True EPUB | 18.52 MB

A compendium of crapulous concepts from absinthe to zorbing

From the tiniest nanoparticle to the vast span of the Large Hadron Collider, humans have invented many remarkable things. But not every idea is a winner - just ask 'Friday' singer Rebecca Black.

This wonderfully eclectic yet uniformly awful compendium traverses millennia of dreadful concepts, from homeopathy to hacky sacks, from Esperanto to Elmo and from athleisure to the Apple Vision Pro, demonstrating that alongside the magnificent march of human progress are many examples of failure, farce and outright fraud - many of which are far more hilarious than intended.

The Dictionary of Terrible Ideas reminds us that no matter how high we may soar, humans are as unreliable as a Bluetooth connection, as irritating as a self-checkout machine, and as prone to making poor decisions as Kanye West - all of which feature inside the turducken of terribleness that is this book.


从纳米粒子到大型强子对撞机的巨大跨度,人类发明了许多令人惊叹的东西。但不是每一个想法都能成为赢家——问问唱《星期五》的歌手蕾贝卡·布莱克就知道了。

这本奇妙而毫无例外地糟糕的词典遍历了千年的糟糕想法,从家庭疗法到气垫袋,从爱知语学到艾莫,从健身休闲到苹果Vision Pro,展示了人类进步的宏伟进程与许多失败、荒诞和明目张胆的欺诈行为并存——其中很多比预期更加滑稽。

《糟糕想法词典》提醒我们,无论我们飞得多高,人类就像蓝牙连接一样不可靠,像自助结账机一样令人讨厌,像坎耶·韦斯特一样容易做出糟糕的决定——所有这些都在这本书中组成的‘turducken’糟糕程度榜单上。
