Customer Reviews

Hilarious book worth the time and money

had a hard time putting this down. the humor found its mark and was really enjoyable. i'd recommend it to anyone.

ROFLMAO

I absolutely loved this book. Mindy Kaling is hilarious and so are most of the other people. Highly recommended--I've passed it along to friends!

The most impressive lineup in years

Every contributor to this book is hilarious--but you must already know that. The sense of humor varies widely throughout, but everything is on point. So rarely does a collection like this (well conceived, beautifully put together) come about. This is a must-buy for any person, horrible or not, in need of some tongue-in-cheek advice.

Great for the comedy movie fan

I am a huge fan of so many of these comedians: Mindy Kaling, Sarah Silverman, Judd Apatow, Michael Ian Black. It's the best book for someone who mostly likes comedy movies and sitcoms.

Who Are These People?!

If I thought any of the folks who asked these questions were even remotely serious, (or in some cases real) I think I'd spend the rest of my life looking over my shoulder. Perhaps my favorite moment involves the dog owner who wants to mimic his pug in eating his own poop, but they're all good. Incidentally, if Harold Ramis's anecdote involving pigweed doesn't tickle your funny bone, you clearly don't like to laugh.
