    my friend loves this

    I bought this as a gift over X-mas. It seems that my friend finds every philosophy-inspired joke funny. Not to mention that we found out that our Chancellor also loves these jokes. So my advice is buy it and then tell these jokes to intellectuals who grade your papers. Maybe you'll get A couple of laughs. :0)
