Description
We've all had them, those pointless arguments that are seemingly impossible to solve. Does God exist? Should the toilet seat be up or down? Did man really land on the moon?
Well argue no more, because Alexander Armstrong and Richard Osman, hosts of BBC1's hit quiz Pointless have now solved every single argument you will ever have.
What would be the best superpower? Is it ever acceptable to dump someone by text? What are best, cats or dogs?
If you buy this book you will find out the answer to every single one of these. Actually, you could just flick through this book in the shop to find out the answer to every single one. But buy it; your Mum would really like it.
You will even find out, once and for all whose turn it is to take the bins out.
