The Will to Whatevs: A Guide to Modern Life

Usually I find humor books by comedians to be 200 pages of stuff that's 70% as funny as their stage material. Bucking the trend, Mr. Mirman's advice book is dizzyingly inspired and consistently funny from the opening sentence. If you like deadpan absurdity and pitch-perfect non-sequiturs, this book will have you giddy. On many occasions I laughed so hard I had to collect myself on the subway so as not to look like a freak. If you like Woody Allen's early stuff, Steve Martin, David Sedaris, Stewart/Colbert/Conan or the Onion, this is a can't miss.

Eugene Mirman has a very specific sense of humor, if you "get it" and enjoy it, then this is a great book. Do yourself a favor and check into his stuff before ordering, because if you don't know what you're getting into, you probably won't like it. I think he's super-funny and therefore recommend the book.

What can I say about the "Will to Whatevs" that hasn't already been said about orgasms? This informative pamphlet will guide you though the toughest of times and rocket you though the doldrums of post-modern ambiguity with a broadsword made of chuckles. This book LITERALLY saved my wife from being sexually assaulted twice during a silent auction!

Are you concerned that you got the wrong 7 habits, that your parachute is mauve, and that you still don't know how to win friends and influence people? Then stop tweeting about your Facebook friends on MySpace, and GO BUY THIS BOOK. It will not only solve all your problems, but also create new ones. Eugene will help you get into college, find a mate, and take over a (small?) country. In the process, you might get arrested, be time-warped to a 1988 Guns N' Roses concert, and become a tranny. It's a fun, bumpy ride, but you will be sad only once - when you get to the end of the book. The emotions you felt at the end of Mary Poppins will be unavoidable here as well.
