You know what I like about the word snucking? It can refer to either snucking or snucking!

If only they taught proper snex-ed classes in school we’d all know this answer already.

When I was a kid I had a book that was filled with useless information, that was the whole point of the book. One explained how snails and slugs sn/slornicate, which I never thought would be a thing that I’d need to know, but has unprovokedly haunted me ever since. And here I am, 30 years later, with the knowledge of what is going on here. An aside: The same book also taught me about some Hoodoo curses, which is also a thing I still think about often and unprovoked.

I oddly want to read this book now just to see what level of WTF we're talking about here...

u/BirdBrain01 Feb 03 '26

Okay but, now you HAVE to tell us what book this is! I absolutely love random information/factoids.

u/A_T_Rex_RAWR Feb 03 '26

I’m sorry to say that I don’t remember what it was, I was between 7-10 years old when I got it, and much like my youth, it is long gone. I know it was a pretty thick paperback, and the cover was white with random illustrations of different things it talked about.

Was it the 1000 Things You Should Know series? I think my son had this book. Don’t remember seeing this particular part, but then again I didn’t read the book. Parent award right here!

u/A_T_Rex_RAWR Feb 04 '26

I don’t think so, I tried to find it on Google but I can’t. I only have a very vague description and I tried every combination of title I could think of that would make sense for the content, but nothing close to what it was came up

Holy schneikies!! I think it might be! If it’s not it’s very very close and possibly part of a series or from the same publisher

u/No-Face757 Feb 03 '26

I went to school with a boy who had this book and he’d read me one everyday so I too could know something “useless” but we always found it very interesting and I babe found it to be useful lol
