Oddly, demographic research shows that So You Come From Australia is almost universally purchased as a double set with So You Probably Shouldn't Have Eaten That.

Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam.

Which is weird when you think about it, because it's a well-known truth that anything is edible if barbecued for long enough or consumed with beer.

Not on e.g. the turian homeworld. :)

Actually, I can imagine the ecosystems like the dextro-amino-derived Turians are probably a few chapters of SYPSHET.

In fact, I'm fairly certain that some of Bacon's So You... books have become required reading reference texts in several paramilitary organizations, much like the Jane's manuals.

Indeed. For example, So You Got Shot is an invaluable resource for anyone who might have to treat his own gunshot wound at some point.

It is, however, highly recommended that you read that book before you get shot. Reading while wounded has been shown to lower the effectiveness of the information.

Bacon is not responsible for incompatible or non-standard physiologies due to mutations from base phenotypes. Please see publication So You're Not Like Everyone Else for assistance.

From everything I've heard of the land down under, I would have expected So You Don't Want the Creature to Eat You to be the popular companion book.

You would think? Except most of them seem to at least want the creature to try.

"Some of the sheep."

Well, there was that trouble at a biological research station on one of New Brisbane's moons...

...which is why there's one less moon there now.

Terrible what happened with Project: Black Sheep.

Are "You've Just Arrived from a Parallel Dimension" and "You've Just Arrived in a Parallel Universe" different editions of the same book, or just titled that way due to authorial memory? "Dimension" is generally mentioned as the book the Cephirans were given to read when they first arrive (Utena, Saionji, Juri, and Wakaba all read it at WPI), while "Universe" is the book that the X-Men and friends were given when they arrived (although Miki read it too, at the Hutchins home). Both books are mentioned in "Christmas Rose" (where Kate tells Utena to read the appendix to Universe (...And Your Enemies Have Followed You Here) because it was added in the 2nd edition - but Utena never read the 1st edition of Universe, she read Dimension)

Similar "mismatches" that make me wonder if the title was changed in later editions - "So You're Not the Master Race:..." and "So You Aren't the Master Race:..." (the full titles are fairly different) and "So You Are Falling from a Great Height" and "So You Fell from a Great Height:..."

This is an excellent Mighty Marvel No-Prize-style answer, but the truth is that it's usually just me not quite remembering right. (The exception is that So You Fell from a Great Height and So You Are Falling from a Great Height are actually two different books. One is for celestial outcasts, the other is for people who've just been ejected from high-flying aerospacecraft and/or defenestrated from a tall building. :)

I always claimed that as a survivor, if I ever became bitten, that I saw it as my duty to lock myself in a basement or a closet...with the intention of making other survivors lives "interesting", in a Chinese-proverb kind of way.
