It's weird! It's an encyclopedia. It's Weird-o-Pedia! Check out the weird and wonderful facts in this massive encyclopedia of oddities-cover Mind and Body, Work and Play, Animals and Nature and so much more!

The next time someone tells you smugly that Pluto isn't a planet, you can counter with any one of these hundreds of weird facts and remain king or queen of the cocktail (or kegger) chatter.

• Humans are the only animal that enjoys spicy food (there's a reason no one sells Tabasco-flavored cat food).
• Napping can save you from a heart attack (assuming you are not operating heavy machinery at the time).
• Psychology can assess your personality from how you dip fries in ketchup. (Nice fries, sociopath!).
• Surfing the internet actually makes you smarter (but not as smart as reading this book will).

What's weird and smart at the same time? You after you've read this book!
