The perfect present for buds and dormroom inhabitors, this collection of viral fake fliers is at once strange, thought-provoking, and hilarious. Printed on heavy, cardstock-like paper, these 20 "fake" fliers both celebrate and embody surreal posters--like the kind plastered all over college campuses, only taken to the next level. As a bonus feature, the sturdy paperback comes with a french-fold jacket that, when removed, opens up to reveal a larger poster. Images include a photo of a found duck mistaken for a dog that the poster is now keeping and an anonymous group posting about a quiet universe. There is something in this collection for everyone who ever looked at a postered telephone pole or coffee house bulletin board and wondered "is there more out there?"

Being afraid to fly wasn't a very good thing at all, especially with a last name like hers. Coming from a long line of Fliers, whose family history was rich with their famous exploits would have made Bianca Marie Cool appear to be a special twelve year old girl. But there was one major problem with being from a family of Fliers, and that was... Bianca was afraid of flying. It was bad enough that her eight and a half year old sister, Nicole Ann, was already an experienced Flier... what made matters worse was that her mom and grandfather would constantly remind her of the importance of her being able to fly. Prophetic visions received by her grandmother, long before she and her younger sister were born, spoke of great things, events in the lives of the two girls which showed them to be destined for fame and glory. But these prophesies could not come about if Bianca never learned to fly.
