Yours Truly, Pierre Stone

Well done! You did it. You worked hard and got into a great university. Now the real work begins. The work of finding out who you really are, and getting that person totally wasted! I, Oregon M. Shawcross, am here to navigate you through your first brilliant year. As a fellow fresher, I will draw on my own personal experiences, and those of my housemates, to answer all your questions and concerns. What are the appropriate boundaries in teacher/student relationships? Should I pursue my passions - even if there is an age gap? Should I listen to my friends - even when I know they are just jealous? Where can I purchase a secure lock for a regular ceramic butter dish? My aim for this student guide is simple: to change your life, and in the process save humanity from the thoughtless course it is bent on pursuing. My humble hope is that this little book will be a combination of the best novel you have ever read, the wisest old woman you might ever talk to, the most delicious meal you will ever eat and the hottest guy you could ever bang! Peace and love to everyone Oregon x

The collected scripts of the unique, slightly strange, often weird, but always hilarious award-winning sitcom Peep Show. Meet Mark and Jeremy: two very ordinary weirdos. Mark, a middle-aged man trapped in a twentysomething's body, is the sensible one--a loan manager with seven GCSEs ("back when a GCSE actually meant something") and an unhealthy obsession with World War II. His flatmate, Jeremy, is a grade-A work-shy freeloader with sketchy fruebds. He dreams of being a world-class musician but can't seem to get out of bed in the morning. They hate themselves, each other, and the world. This is their story. Uniquely filmed--shot from the characters' point of view and edited so the viewer hears their unspoken thoughts, as well as the dialogue between them--Peep Show has attracted both a cult following and critical acclaim. Now, Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong, the creators of the show, have pulled together and annotated the scripts of all five series and written hilarious extra material to take us even deeper into the minds of our socially inept and wonderfully weird heroes and their slightly strange friends. A perfect example of British comedy writing at its very best, this book is the perfect present for quirky comedy fans everywhere.
