"Funny, if a bit padded-feeling - and I can attest from my own experience that some of the details are wrong, which is just as well. This is in the same vein as the "Worst Case Scenario" books, taking a pseudo-matter-of-fact tone in talking about situations that are mostly impossible, ridiculous, or highly unlikely. Not one that will go down as a classic, but good for killing some time."
"A person described this book as "If you ever find yourself in a plastic bag and need to know how to get out!!!" Abby Hoffmans "Steal this Book" offers more sound (but outdated)advice, but Forbidden Knowledge is still fun to read."
"Hm. What I learned from this book? 1) How to tell if your neighbor is a zombie (and what to do about it). 2) How to read entrails to predict the future. 3) How to hotwire a car. 4) How to walk on hot coals . . . 75) How to write a cheeziass book. JK - many of these articles are fairly amusing takes on things. Unfortunately short in the detail department on some items, such as "How to Make an Atomic Bomb." So, one will just have to experiment, one guesses.
Still have 25 things left to learn at the time of this writing.
I am about 7 things left now.
94) If someone gives you the book, it makes a nice coffeetable/conversationstarter/coaster."
