The most useless desert-island library possible
I first saw this topic here, but it doesn't seem to be there anymore.
Assume you’re stranded on your standard-issue desert island — no phone, no lights, no motor cars, etc. What books would be completely useless in that situation?
Titles from the link:
Firewalls for Dummies, Second Edition
Rachael Ray 365: No Repeats
The Eat Right for Your Type Complete Blood Type Encyclopedia
Essentials of Contract Law
1000 Places to See Before You Die (perhaps more frustrating than useless)
Other contributions I like:
Consumer Reports 2007 Car and Truck Buying Guide
Ebert’s Little Movie Glossary
Frommer’s Guide to Budapest and the Best of Hungary
Leonard Maltin’s 1984 Movie Guide
How to Win Friends & Influence People
Who Moved My Cheese?
Writer’s Market 2006
Here's my list:
Southwestern Bell White Pages (from 1967)
1 Minute Manager
Investment Strategies
Cheat codes for PS3
Tax code
Chilton's Guide
