Dogbert's Clues for the Clueless: A Dilbert Collection

In this 1993 book, Scott Adams' creation, Dogbert, sets out to teach the right way to do everything. Written with tongue firmly planted in cheek, this book teaches you everything you need to know, from how to talk with your mouth full, through relationships, children, pets, and on to the "S" word (as in, never say that this book is s____). OK, as with all of Adams' Dilbert books this one displays that kooky humor that has made him famous. There is nothing serious in this book, and anyone looking for any lessons here should be tarred and feathered. Admittedly, this book moves the Dilbert characters out of the office and into many situations that they find everywhere, and they attack each situation with the same sense of pure cluelessness. So, if you are a fan of Dilbert, then I highly recommend this book to you. I loved it!

This is the book that got me originally hooked on Dilbert, and I still think it is Scott Adams' best work. The Dilbert strip, over the years, has gotten to be less about life as a well-meaning nerd, and more about the workplace, and I think a lot of very good humor has gotten lost. The humor here covers everything from dating etiquiette, to explaining why the extra fork is there, to dealing with insurance companies. Much more amusing than simply complaining about incompetent managers !

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, ok, i think you get the messageThe first real Dilbert book I read, and one of the funniest things in the history of printed media. So much so that my boyfriend offers it to me to read if i'm feeling sad, cos it's guaranteed to cheer me up every time.As all the other reviews say, it's true-to-life, with spot on observations about just about everything you could imagine. But, rather than repeat all that, i'll include some tempting insights into the best bits:"Sitting On Them" - the subtlety of the opening cartoon had me chuckling for ages"Death" - "I said 'Honey, don't moon the cheetahs, they look fast'"And my personal all-time favourite, that never ever becomes less funny...Coping with people who spit when they talk - build a cone of dryness. You have to see this cartoon. Really. You'll not regret it!

This is the third and probably the funniest Dilbert book out there! This book is so funny,you'll laugh out loud roughly every six seconds, it's hillarious and true to life. This book is not a normal Dilbert book either, rather then being just a collection of about nine months worth of daily and Sunday comics it's full of big ( one taking up a full page ) origninal strips specially made for this book featuring the master of wit and sarcasm Dogbert as he explains basic human ediquit in a hillarious and true to life manner. ( let's see how many times I can write the words " Hillarious " and true to life " ) Even though this book was obviously made as a clever market ploy by Scott Adams to get the strip off the ground and get a little more cash in his pocket ( in the early days the strip was not phenomana that it is today, infact sales were less then mediocre ) it's still clear that he had alot of fun making this book and you'll have alot of fun reading it. This book was made before Dilbert became a comic strictly composed of workplace humor so it focuses on all sorts of topics. Personally I wish the strip would be more like that now. I mean I think the office gags are really funny, but now that Scott has achieved his maximum popularity I wish he would go back to some of the old formula's again and have Dogbert make some clever sarcastic shemes again that don't have to do with bussiness consulting. So in short, if your a Dogbert fan or you've never even read the Dilbert comic or your a fan of sarcastic humor, or you just plain like buying stuff because it's out there then buy this book and prepare to be cheered up for about thirty-five minutes.Hillarious and true to life!

There's nothing more to say. This is the funniest book ever written. I can't imagine not owning this book, and reading it at least once every few months.
