'I close my eyes when I come to page 3 whilst reading the Sun . am I helping the cause?' 'The only time I told someone there was anything better than sex, it was having seen Britain's first, and so far only, Golden-winged Warbler (a tiny jewel of an American bird) near Tesco's car park at Maidstone, on 14 February 1989. The adrenaline rush was phenomenal.' 'I know someone who once drank a soy latte and 6 years later their car got stolen.' The Guardian publishes over forty thousand reader comments a day below the line. This is a miscellany of the best and most baffling thoughts from their witty, well-meaning readers. In the book they ponder the big questions ('Am I the only one who thinks that ham and cheese is a ghastly mix?'), reflect with nostalgia on better days ('Airline employees were so much more agreeable back when they were all drunk') and share worldly wisdom ('You can't recycle a polar bear'). This is the gift book guaranteed to be found nestling in every eco-friendly tote bag and under every low-carbon Christmas tree.
