This Book Will Put You To Sleep

This book was designed to be as boring as possible, so let’s take a look inside. I believe that anything can be interesting, but also anything when done right can make you drowsy - especially if you write it in spirals that force the eye to go around and around and around.

The book also contains a catalog of spoons, a dictionary of words to describe dullness, and interesting diaries with some of the dullest entries. For example, on September 2nd 1938, George Orwell wrote in his diaries: “Fine and fairly warm.” There are also activities like counting sheep, spotting the difference between sweaters, and a history of the Snellen eye chart written like an eye chart.

To see how well you do, I’ll leave you with this one: a staring contest with 48 cats. Pause the video to see how you do!
