DISALMANAC

This parody of an almanac is a hilarious compendium of fact-like information, based on a popular blog, podcast, and Twitter feed. Based on the popular Disalmanac Twitter feed with over 57,000 followers, this send up of facts and figures cover the essential information that every misinformed person needs to know.

Like a real almanac, the book is divided into five sections: domestic, world, science, a catch-all section of economics, pop-culture, sports and more, and a completely made-up Year in Review section. There are plenty of charts, graphs, and sidebars throughout for extra humor, plus line illustrations created by the author.
The book contains special bonus nuggets of disinformation from celebrities including Neil Gaiman, Wil Wheaton, Weird Al Yankovich, and others. Smart, funny, and 100% unfactual, this is the only book you’ll ever need if you don’t really want to know anything.
