Saw that a week ago, pretty funny!

Reminded me of an old book I read back in high school about an archeologist studying our time and gettint it wrong...like thinking a man who suddenly died in his bath during a cataclysm was an actual elaborate funeral ceremony, with the toilet seat being a ceremonial necklace and all...

Good shit, wish I could find that book again!

LOL! That it would.

Shame... sounds like an intresting book. I've always said that in 500 years when archeologists dig up the bones of todays people, how much "historical information" would they get wrong about the way adverage people lived.

Try some keywords.

That's the book. I'm also good with google, but I didn't try. Just to see how easy it was, I just googled "toilet seat ceremonial necklace book" and I got to this forum where I found the name. It is indeed the Motel of the Mysteries, that I read in french back in 1995 or something.

Great illustrations too! I'm so buying this again!

I found it through a blog post. Different methods of reaching the same conclusion. Can't be many books out there with a toilet seat serving as a ceremonial necklace.
