Books are not Colbert’s thing. Heck, even he says so!

The book is one long diatribe on the world… except there is no logic or reason to it, just stupidity that is intended to be funny. An example: there is a chapter on old people. The jist of it that old people are a bane to society. Instead of having them do nothing, we ought to build a porch on the Mexican border, sit them on it, plant some grass-sead, and then rely on their “stay off my lawn” antics to keep illegals out. That’s kind of a funny thought, but imagine reading for 20-minutes to get to it.

Perhaps I should read the whole book and rewrite it here? It’d take about 15 minutes to read, it’d be free, and you’d likely laugh even more without having gone through torture.

He’s a funny guy, and I love his show, but the laughs contained within this book are few and far between. It’s like a bathroom book that requires you to sit on the pot for thirty minutes at a time.

3.4/10 – my worst review of all-time?
