Who Cut The Cheese? - An A-Mazing Parody about Change

by Stilton Jarlsberg, Kenneth Bleucheese (Foreword)

Parody

Who Cut the Cheese? is a parable (Latin for "terrible parody") in which four characters must find a way through a maze in their hunt for "Cheese." But please keep in mind that this cheese is actually symbolic of the things that we all want out of success and self-confidence, a nice house, a loving marital relationship, perfect children, a loyal dog, indoor plumbing, good Chinese food, several million tax-free dollars, and red-hot sex with multiple partners.

The "Maze" in this story is symbolic of the twisting, turning, confusing, mugger-filled blind alleys of Your Life. More important, since you're being compared to a rat in this book, the whole "Maze" analogy works like a charm.

When you come to see the "Psychobabble on the Wall," you can discover for yourself how to deal with change and how to find the Cheese that will make your life joyous and fulfilling. Failing that, feel free to take crayons and color in all the pictures. It's fun, it's therapeutic, and it will make it impossible for you to return this book for a refund.

The "self-help" book "Who moved my Cheese?" has been pissing me off for a couple of decades as a self-serving "gift" from various administrators and employers over the years. The specious bottom-line? You shouldn't hold on to expectations for professional treatment, promised compensation, fairness in the workplace, etcetera. Basically, you will be happier and more successful if you are able to accomodate any change. I'm sure that the author would deny that he was mounting a defense thatexcuses any abberant or abusive behavior that employers rain down on employees, but that is the role that book has taken on in my experience. This book, a well needed satire of that best-selling but inherently fatuous book, is a breath of fresh air. I had slways fantasized about writing a response book entitles "I'm looking for the motherfucker who moved my cheese!" This book ably takes the place of that fantasy, and thoroughly satirizes the cloying, talk-down-to-the-audience prose style of the original.

If you hated that enormous pile of crap, "Who Moved My Cheese?" as much as I did, you'll quite possibly love this book. No point in reading this until you've been subjected to the nasty thing it is parodying.

I live by this principle now. Understanding the change is part of life and living in spite of is key!

This book is a parody of Who Moved My Cheese. There are some lessons in this book, along with a bunch of puns and "dad" jokes. There was one where I almost spiit my drink out!
