This book explores the strangest and most mysterious facets of adult life, such as: What do teachers really talk about in the teacher’s lounge? And how can adults stand to drink a beverage as disgusting as coffee?

For instance: What is it about a McRib that drives people crazy? Can we replace extending an olive leaf with extending an olive jar? How much wisdom can we glean from episodes of Welcome Back, Kotter? His friends and family weigh in with hilarious results as Goldstein eats, sleeps, and watches bad TV all the way to his date with destiny. 2012.Vous n'aurez pas le dernier mot !: petite anthologie désinvolte des plus belles réparties (Humour Ser. #Vol. 6123368)

Jean Piat et Patrick Wajsman se sont amusés à escalader ce commet. De Richelieu à Woody Allen, de Churchill à Groucho Marx, une promenade littéraire en 200 reparties, une échappée vers l'imprévu.
