Humans are Weird: We Took A Vote Kindle Edition

4.8 out of 5 stars 170 ratings

If you are looking for epic space battles, if you are looking for generals winning victory through genius tactics, if you are looking for berserker warriors carrying empires aloft on their swords, look elsewhere my friends. Here you will find laughter.Here a quartermaster must discover why the human insists that the mass produced broom, identical down to the molecule to every other broom on the base, is the "wrong" broom, and why and how they expect him to fix it. Here aliens learn the meaning of "enough C4". Here a medic meets the challenge of understanding why a human thinks it can survive on chocolate cake.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Betty Adams lives in a particularly damp and remote corner of the Pacific Northwest and like a hobbit enjoys visitors so long as she knows them in advance and knows when they are coming. She was born sometime last century and will likely die sometime this century. She works winters on a small organic research farm when not writing and spends most of her time herding eccentric genius scientists (she is absolutely certain cats would be easier) with the help of her Great Pyrenees mix. Summers she spends nomadically wandering the Pacific Northwest in search of material for her stories and a regular paycheck for a biology major (she is reasonably certain those are on the Endangered Species List). She has several works published in the National Park Internal Database which may or may not be classified documents.

    The author excels at writing about the little idiosyncrasies of human existance, but from the perspective of an outsider. The stories tell amusing excerpts of aliens as they deal with everyday human behavior. The result is a fun and insightful commentary on the human condition. If you want a short, fun read i highly recommend it.

    This was a really fun read. A single human trait reduced to a page or 2, explored from a 3rd party perspective. All in good fun and great humor. Loved it.

    I will say that the formatting is a bit strange for a published book, but that’s quickly easily to ignore with how fun this is! A great read, and would definitely be guaranteed to brighten anyone’s day.

    These books are perfect for when you don't have time or the attention span to read for hours, but just want to get away for a little while. Each story is stand alone, but as you read, they build a fantastic world and characters. I recommend starting with the Human Are Weird: I Have the Data. They are light-hearted yet point out some very peculiar behaviors humans have that seem very mundane to us, until you really examine them from a different perspective!

    We see ourselves most clearly when we see ourselves reflected in other eyes, even if those eyes are fictional. Betty Adams captures some oddities of human behavior, both general and individual in this series of vignettes, in an entertaining and often humorous way.

    I like the light-heartedness the humans bring. I like the respect and concern the other sentient species offer. I loved reading it. It now becomes something I can pick up or start whenever or wherever I choose to revisit. I'm going to buy the first book as well.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 11, 2022
    Great stories, with them being short enough to read several sharp insights into humanity and their alien coworkers.

    I fully recommend this book and the rest of the series.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 22, 2022
    This book is a collection of short stories. VERY short stories, practically vignettes.

    But each one is a microcosm, a quick exploration of humanity, looking at some of our more bizarre behaviours, which we don't really consider bizarre ourselves- but maybe we should!
