Too funny.... It hurts to read it!
This book is the perfect cure for the doldrums! I found myself smiling as I was reading, and even laughing out loud at times. I even snorted at one point... A magnificent read, although I cannot decide whether Karl Pilkington is a comic genius or just a complete moron. Regardless, he truly does have the most amazing view of the world - which is ridiculous and so insightful at the same time. It's hard to tell what's ignorance and what's genius, he is very childlike in his views and yet there's an undeniable logic to his thinking sometimes - it's so basic that the mature brain sometimes overlooks such simplicity. Does this mean his mind is childlike or is he so complex that he's able to see such simplicities in a clearer light? I have no idea, but I do know that this book is laugh-out-loud funny and well worth this ridiculously low price! Read more
