The Diagram Prize (and the Diagram of Diagrams)

The Diagram Prize is an humourous annual prize given to the book with the oddest title. Past winners have included "Bombproof Your Horse", "How to Shit in the Woods: An Environmentally Sound Approach to a Lost Art", "Greek Rural Postmen and their Cancellation Numbers" and my personal favourite the, "Lesbian Sadomasochism Safety Manual".

This year, they are having a "Diagram of Diagrams" prize, which will decided what has been the oddest book title over the past 30 years. You can learn more and vote for your favourite here.

You are the most verbose bear I have ever met.

I would certainly do so.

I hear he does like a good beating.

But prefers a good baiting.
