Anybody else buy this? I enjoy it quite a bit. Especially page 99.

I'm extremely lazy and downloaded the audio book. The best part is the entire cast of The Daily Show narrates the book. You can imagine how much more funny it is with the delivery John and Stephen Colbert reading the parts.

I don't really know much about this book, other than the fact that it exists. So perhaps I'm judging it prematurely and unfairly, but I can't imagine it being that good. I picture it as being similar to a book of "Top 10 Lists" or "Sniglets". It kinda seems like stuff that wouldn't really be funny out of the context of the show. Seems like kids' stuff. But again, I don't know. And I probably won't bother finding out.

I bought it, read it, and agree with Steve.

It's got it's good parts - but they're not "LOL" funny. More so, "Yea, you're right... it is like that."

Kind of like David's magician joke, the most you ever get out of magic is, "Yep... that's my card."

Yeah I downloaded the audio book too and I thought it was way funnier when you were actually listening to the Daily Show cast.
