Announcing the last thing you’d expect from the The Encyclopedia of Immaturity people: a diary. We know — “diary” sounds like it has the dearest little lock on it and maybe a kitten on the cover, with pastel pages to be filled with the sensitive writing of a tender soul on a voyage of self-discovery. Yeah, this diary is nothing like that. The Encyclopedia of MY Immaturity is a wise-cracking collection of write-in-the-book activities immortalizing the triumphs of a misspent youth. Like your sister’s diary, this journal comes with a handy pen mounted right on the front cover. Unlike your sister’s diary, it also comes with a few fake fill-in-the-blank, parent-praising journal entries (for the benefit of unauthorized snoops). Other entries include the “how immature are you, really ” test, the “what you will barely grow up to be ” fortune teller, and the “what kind of goofball are you ” quiz (spaz, party clown, or slouch). Throughout, directed activities share space with open-ended journal prompts. It’s the ideal way to record all those things you should never have done in the first place, and how you’ll do them better next time.
