Fake Science 101

What it does

Fake Science 101: A Less-Than Factual Guide To Our Amazing World. The new textbook for when the facts are too confusing.

Finally, you'll understand our amazing world without having to think too hard about it. This textbook covers everything from daily life to Nobel Prize etiquette (which our lab knows a lot about). It will help you become the scientist you always dreamed of becoming while you were sleeping through science class. This handsome volume is large enough to hide your copy of Nude Bird Monthly! For years, readers have flocked to the Fake Science site for scientifically flavored information. The research there has been lauded by Mental Floss as "inaccurate and ridiculous in every way," praised by the Guardian as "brilliantly false," heralded by io9 as "amazing," and noted by Google as "a website."…from fakescience.org
