Customer Reviews

Hilarious and thought-provoking

Although some of the questions in this book are truly horrible (that is, you'd prefer never to consider the circumstances) it is very enjoyable and interesting. Try reading through it with somebody you know well (such as sibling, close friend, or that special someone) and answering the questions honestly. Being candid can be quite a challenge, but you'll notice that if you let your worst side out, then you'll find out a lot of interesting things about the other person as well. In general, the questions asked in the book are funny and thought-provoking and you will begin pondering how you would act in the cases provided. The book is divided into sections: Big Ticket Items, Torture, The Good News and the Bad News, How Much Would You Pay?, "Money Talks, Nobody Walks", Sex Related, "Bargain Basement", Questions of Personal Ethics, Food, If Nobody Ever Knew, Selfish Selfish Bastard, Man's Best Friend, All-Powerful Red Button, Priorities, Incest on Sale, A Crazed Madman Has a Gun, The Smith and Doe Low-Rent Celebrity Auction, and Life Choices. The variety of ways the questions are asked prevent this book from becoming monotonous and allow one to pick a favorite section.

Funniest thing I've read in a long time

I've got to say it is not easy to make me laugh, and this thing had me on the floor for literally hours. I was LAUGHING OUT LOUD, which is truly surprising, even to me. Not for the squeamish, this is a very funny look at just how horrible and selfish people really are.

for $7.99 would you buy this book?

One of the funniest things I've ever read! A guaranteed icebreaker, great for parties or even dull functions. Everyone needs to own or have access to a copy of this book. Couldn't recommend it higher.

Endless Source of Fun and Conversation

I am a co-host of the Naked Radio(tm) morning show. We had these guys on the air and they were hysterical. The book is thought provoking and I learned a lot about people I thought I knew well. My girlfriend and I even broke it out when her parents came to dinner and we all had a great time debating our respective answers. What an ice breaker!!!

Gaaaah

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! Terrific
