Humans Are Weird

I Have the Data

By: Betty Adams

Narrated by: Betty Adams

If you are looking for epic space battles, if you are looking for generals achieving 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. Here, Monty Python meets Star Trek.

An excellent and entertaining book.

I really enjoyed this look at human eccentricities through the eyes of alien observers.

Great stories!

These are some pretty good stories and I am glad I could listen to them all in 1 book. Even though I love to read, it can be hard to read some of the words from this story so I am glad I could listen to it while working.

Fun collection of related short stories

I first heard a couple of her short stories on YouTube though the Agro Squirrel Narrates channel. The concept behind the stories is interesting and leads to manny amusing situations. My only criticism is I wish she had had someone more experienced, do the narration. While her reading was adequate, there where time when she seemed to rush though a chapter and, sometimes, fumble a word, here and there. But overall, a very good book.

Meh

One of the worst performances I've experienced; lots of stumbling over words, background noise (things falling over, keyboard clicking), terrible emphasis, poor enunciation, poor pacing. It isn't really a story, more a collection of anecdotes. Interesting enough for what it is.

Awful Narration

I only spent a few dollars on this and I regret it. The story is okish, but not nearly engaging enough to get past the unedited audio. Fumbled words should mean one re-records that segment. Mouse clicks and key presses can be heard. One should also practice one's artist's name before recording, if that's going to be a stumbling block.
