An A-level study book has sent Twitter into hysterics after throwing some serious shade at Manchester United fans.
Student George shared the snippet to the platform in a viral tweet that racked up hundreds of likes. The segment gives an insight into the central nervous system.

The post was soon inundated with responses from avid football fans.
"Where is this?" one demanded before adding: "My father is a lawyer I'm going to sue them for defamation of Manchester United!"
Another added: "These AQA psychology textbooks ruin my life on the daily."
"The book was clearly written by a Looserpool fan," a third joked.

The 6ft 6in striker has scored nine goals in 18 games for Besiktas this term, including the winner in Saturday’s 2-1 Super Lig victory over Kasimpasa. Following the match, he appeared to wave goodbye to Besiktas' fans.
He appeared to wave goodbye to the club’s supporters after that match.
