    The extremely funny comics of the oatmeal all rolled up into a book.

    The comics written by the oatmeal (Matthew Inman)are a unique mixture of everyday situations and the bizarre. Each comic is a new adventure into the mind of creator Matthew Inman that will have you laughing from beginning to end. I thoroughly loved this book and hope you find as much enjoyment from it as i have.

    Specific Comedy

    There were definitely a few pages I found pretty funny, but for the most part this book isn't very funny. However, it is pretty entertaining when it isn't funny. It wouldn't be worth paying more than $10 for, but if you find a copy and 20 minutes go ahead and read it.
