Rating: Summary: I laughed till I threw up Review: One of the greatest books I have ever read. Looks great on the coffee table, makes a great first impression on new friends. My first copy fell apart because it got looked at so much.
Rating: Summary: VERY FUNNY Review: Please note - you will have two reactions to this book - you will either LOVE it or you will HATE it. It really depends on whether you have a dark sense of humor and can laugh at the misery of others. While earlier reviewers are correct - they're not always the most clever ways of dying - they are still unpleasant. What I think makes the book particularly good is that the illustrations are outstanding. Every image conveys movement, despite the fact that it's just a drawing.
Rating: Summary: Hilarious but sick. Review: Seems like it would be the most disgusting book ever written but it turns out to be the funniest book ever written, no words needed, far side type.
Rating: Summary: I buy all copies I find and give them away, like I'm crazy. Review: The funniest cartoon book ever published. I buy every copy I see in stores, and give them away to friends, lovers, coworkers, acquaintances, and any one else who touches my life. This book is far too good and too funny not to have been specifically banned in the Bible.
Rating: Summary: Ehhh!!! Kind of like a "Far Side" for those with dark humor. Review: This book has it's few moments of making you grin. Like a fellow reviewer I saw all the positive reviews and thought I'd give it a shot. This book has really no written content and is just an illustrated book. It can be scanned pretty throughly in about 15 minutes, than it's off to your self and into anonymity. Nothing was so funny I laughed out loud and none of the pages left a particularly lasting effect of humor on me. There was nothing in it's contents that even made me bring it to a friend so they could laugh along with me. This book isn't "bad" as far as illustrated work, but it is a far cry from good. For the ten dollar price tag attached to it you could buy something much more entertaining. It gets one solid star. I mean unlike some harsh reviews I wouldn't give it a zero stars if I could, but weighing humor, price, and originality this book is without any value outside a quick glance.
Rating: Summary: Great for a quick laugh Review: This book is for people with a sense of humor, especially those of us who feel that anything can be made fun of at any time. I've gone through this book many times, and it's funny every time. Granted some of the "unpleasant ways to die" are funnier than others, but some of them are just downright hysterical. Great book, hoping for a sequel!
Rating: Summary: Horifically Unfunny Review: This book is for retarded children. Don't buy it. There were like 2 or 3 funny ones, but otherwise its a complete rip off.
Rating: Summary: Name of the book basically sums it up. Review: This is probably the funniest book I've ever read. And best of all, NO WORDS!!! Many of the situations in the book are very humorous and others are just plain tasteless. Nonetheless, this is a great book.
Rating: Summary: it's funny from the title and cover itself... Review: well if the book is as good as the preview amazon shows, then i'm deffinetely getting this book. not a single page of those shown here didn't make me laugh, and some even made me laugh out loud and punch the wall. serious. like the scuba diver whose flipper got stuck between two rocks, and the magician in his failed attemt to escape the box.
The guy lifting the weight could have died in a more awful and painful manner: the bar could have fallen over his soft throat, that would have been much funnier. so that's it. get this book if you like the twisted and are not deppendant on words to understand a funny story.
