Book Overview

Can you grow a bonsai kitten? Should you stock up on dehydrated water? Is it easy to order human-flavored tofu? Or is this all just B.S.' In a world of lip synching, breast implants, payola punditry, and staged reality shows, it's hard to know the real from the fake. Hippo Eats Dwarf is the essential field guide to today's Misinformation Age. Whether you're deciphering political doublespeak or trying to decide whether to forward that virus warning,...

Such a waste.

Honestly, this book is far and away the worst book I've ever had the misfortune to kill someone with. It's construction is amatuerish in the extreme, for instance after only two blows the spine cracked and the pages started falling out. Honestly, I actually had to resort to using a bat to finish the bastard off, which tells me there are much better uses for trees than printing books such as this. Save yourself some money and purchase something by Robert Jordan instead. Those are some hefty, well crafted books that will endure hours of family violence. Hell, even if the repeated blows don't finish them off you can always resort to reading the damn thing to them, but that's a bit inhumane.

What They Didn't Tell You

My, my Alex! You've done it again! All I can say is: That delicious dwarf! It's total hippotamy To munch like you have!

The biggest hoax of all

Following the huge success of 'The Museum of Hoaxes' I waited in anticipation for the follow up, 'Hippo Eats Dwarf'. However dear readers, I was shocked when I learned the horrible truth behind this book. Alex Boese DID NOT write this book. Nor did he even pen MoH. The truth is, a team of highly trained monkeys have been working around the clock for the past two years, getting paid literally peanuts, to churn out yet another best seller. I'll give you a minute to come to grips with this shocking news. At first I was in denial, I felt cheated and gullible. However, after a while I began to realise just how wonderful this breakthrough was. If we can help these monkeys have a successful career just by buying their book, isn't that worth something? So buy this book now! Do your bit to help an underprivilged primate suceed in the cut throat publishing industry today.

A Haiku Reflection

I Read, I Enjoy The End Of The Book Is Here Sweet Jesus Christ, Why? Book Of Mockery Exceeds My Expectations Alex Should Write More

Wow

Reading this book was a life-changing experience for me. It made me reflect on my own life and say to myself "Wow...something has to change." And Alex Boese showed me how. I needed to pull more pranks and create more hoaxes. As soon as I realized why I felt there was a hole in my life, I set immediately to fix it. That's where this book shined once again...it served as almost a guide, inspiring me on what pranks to pull. Creating fake mermaids, chain letters, stories about placing kittens in boxes...you should have seen me, I was on a roll! Alex Boese is my hero. I know that this book will help bring about a change in anyone who reads it.
