Can you grow a bonsai kitten? Should you stock up on
dehydrated water? Is it easy to order human-flavored tofu?
Or is this all just B.S.?
In a world of lip synching,
breast implants, payola punditry, and staged reality shows,
it's hard to know the real from the fake. Hippo Eats Dwarf
is the essential field guide to today's Misinformation Age.
Whether you're deciphering political doublespeak or trying
to decide whether to forward that virus warning, hoaxpert
Alex Boese provides the guidelines you need. For instance,
Reality Rule 6.1: Just because you read it on the Internet
doesn't make it true.
With case files, reality
checks, definitions, and plenty of doctored photos, Hippo
Eats Dwarf is an entertaining guide to life, death,
eBay, and everything in between.
