An irreverent lexicon of the seemingly infinite ways we call bullshit, written by a McSweeney's columnist and etymologist, illustrated by a New Yorker-contributing cartoonist. What's the difference between "balderdash" and "drivel"? Where did "mumbo-jumbo" come from? How should you use "meadow mayonnaise"? What's "felgercarb" and which popular TV show coined it? There are hundreds of common and rare terms for bullshit in English, including borrowings from German, turn-of-the-century sailors, The Simpsons, and beyond. Bullshit is everywhere, but not all of it is created equal. Mark Peters's Bullshit: A Lexicon is the handy guide to identifying and calling BS in all of its many forms, from "bunk" and "claptrap" to "applesauce" and "gobbledygook." Packed with historical facts, pop culture tidbits, and definitions for each term, Bullshit is perfect for humor readers, language lovers, and anyone looking to describe life's everyday annoyances.

Paranoid Systems of History
Author: Bachi Gongadze
Publisher: Dorrance Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Structured similarly to the writing styles of ancient and medieval texts, Paranoid Systems of History explores basic ideas and principles which cannot be argued or disputed by anyone in a Cartesian way—the idea of something that is evident and obvious in itself. Bachi Gongadze writes in an honest, almost confessional way, to evoke provocative new ideas and theories on the state of the world and the phenomena within it. The concepts and ideas are shaped by the thoughts of one man, Gongadze, and the philosophers and great writers of the eras, and written during the assumed last days of Gongadze’s life, providing unique ideas which provide readers to reshape their own thinking as well as new thoughts on events throughout history, to reflect on these moments at a new angle. About the Author Bachi Gongadze was born and raised in Georgia and arrived in the USA fifteen months ago, due to finding new treatments for congenital heart disease. At thirty-five, Gongadze has had five surgeries, and after moving, is now on the mend. Gongadze has spent his life writing and translating from English to Russian to Georgian. Paranoid Systems of History is his first published work. Now in the USA, he can share thoughts and ideas that would not be as accepted within his home country. In his spare time, he enjoys reading, playing and watching chess, movies, and music. He is married and has a three-year-old daughter.
