Tiny Acts Of Rebellion is really an "to do book. Written by rich fulcher.

The idea of TAOR is basically follow each scenario written out, written with different rebellion ratings, and play the hell up, cause havok and have a laugh.

Some things in this book are crazy, I bought this from hmv when I was around 13, so obviously back then I loved it. Not sure so much now, I'm 4 years wiser and mature, and it just doesn't interest me. I read over half, but put it down eventually, because I wasn't a big reader back then, and now, I still dont think I'd finish it off.

I'd rate this book 🌟🌟⭐ 2 gold stars for my love in the younger day, but 1 silver for my lack of interest now.

If you're feeling mischievous go out and buy it, if not don't bother.

I think it will suffice to merely insert here a choice extract to give those who may be curious an oddly flavoured sample of the British-based American comedian's prize nonsense:

Act.62

My Name Is...My Name Is...

You know those moments when strangers in public feel comfortable asking you point blank for your name? Situations like getting a dinner reservation or being called on by the comedian at a standup club. I mean who cares if your name is Frances with an 'e' or your last name has an umlaut in it? This is a primo opportunity to be creative and make up a fake name destined to shock and awe everyone in the vicinity. It is name-telling with absoulutely no consequences.

What does the comedian care if you call yourself 'Crumpky the Magician'? Why should the hostess bat an eye if you say 'The Tits McGee family would like a table for four, preferably that red booth in the corner'?...

...~Saying you are 'blank' from 'blank' is always fun. Try it. I am Dave from Sweden, or Ian from Stability Cottage. I am Ronald from Sucko.

~Another good option in this vein is volunteering your name when it has not been solicited. For example: 'Hi, I'm Nibbles, do you have the time?'

~You might also consider adopting a fake name for the entirety of a social event. Imagine roaming around a party with the name 'Fancy Wonderchuck'. Feel free to add an MD or Esq. to the end of it as well. Knock yourself out...

...The possibilities are endless. Remember, the more strangers are involved the better. It takes an extra pair of stones to invent a name in front of someone you already know: 'Oh, sorry Mum, I thought you knew that I'd changed my name to Speedballs Pocketflaps. My bad.'

As Simon Pegg says on the jacket blurb: "Rich Fulcher is hands down one of the funniest men on the planet and I'm not entirely sure he's from Earth."

Three stars, and I'll keep it in the bathroom... ( )

I quite enjoyed this, a few pages at a time as a break from a book I am struggling to finish. I confess to being too chicken to live out most of my rebellious fantasies so Mr. Fulcher has given me a few tiny acts I might accomplish. Who knows? Perhaps I will build up my courage and one day perform a humungous act of rebellion! In fact, he has offered up 97 chances to rebel. Most of them are pretty silly, such as flipping someone off under the table or behind your menu. But then, that's what makes them doable in my case. There is a little too much bathroom humor for me. Although, there have been times when I have seen a cranky clerk refuse the use of a bathroom to a child and I may have encouraged said child to just go ahead and throw up there on the counter.

One tiny act is to see how many extra items you are willing to go through the 10 items or less line with. Or for you grammarians, 10 items or fewer. Oh wait, that still is not a sentence. Anyway, my preference in that situation as I am counting out the items is to get to 10 and tell the clerk I will put the rest back. They always say no it's ok, but my revenge is to leave the items there. BUT......my favorite tiny act happens when a clerk has failed to remove the alarm setter-offer-thingie from an item I have bought and the alarm goes off as I walk through the sensors. I start running to see if they can catch me. That's always fun. Well, for me anyway.

Fulcher also has some good ideas for sticker bombing, one of my favorite activities. (Be sure to buy stickers that are easily removable. But then I guess what would be the point.) He suggests rebelling against poor products by going back to the store and putting stickers on toaster boxes stating things like "This toaster has a faulty....." whatever. or on a book saying
"Lousy ending".

Well, as you can see I am easily entertained. You may want to stick with [Anna Karenina]. Even I am only giving this one three stars. ( )
