Dear Book Nerds,How's the book business going? Not dead yet? Great! Hey, you know what the problem is? Words! You know what people like? Pictures! You know what they love? Family Guy. Okay, so how can we all move forward? How about an R-rated picture book of jokes written and illustrated by the guys that brought you Family Guy? Jokes so silly, stupid, twisted, offensive that they must be captured for future generations of wiseasses. This is what we are working on for you. Oh yeah, and we're late. That's why we have no cover illustration to show you yet. But we re thinking there will be a robot on the cover. A naked robot. Thanks and sincerely,Alec Sulkin, Artie Johann, and Michael Desilets Illustrated by Joe Vaux and Dominic Bianchi
Occasional moments of mild humour interspersed with misogyny and homophobic stereotypes, with a sprinkling of supposed jokes that were more gross than funny.
I'm not sure if I cheated on my reading target with this book as it's not much of a read really. It is a collection of comedic tweets compiled with illustrations from the cartoonists and writers of Family Guy, thrown in with a foreword from the creator himself.
I actually didn't get pretty much the humor of the tweets here at all, maybe because I'm not familiar with the pop culture references or because American humor and insinuations are foreign to me thus the 1 star rating. meh.
