content: Obviously there are two camps of people that reviewed this book, those that loved it and those that hated it. Not many in between. I'm not sure where the camp of lovers are coming from. This book was not funny. I repeat . . . not funny! I didn't laugh once through the first half of it which is how far I could stand to read. It portrays a pathetic fat slob of a jerk that deserves all the bad that life deals him. It's slow, it's pointless, it's really hard to understand why this is a popular book. Please read the one star reviews as well as the fives before quessing if you'd be a lover or a hater. Yuk.
