    Nook version costs MORE than the book?

    Why is the Nook version a whole dollar more than a physical version of it? Fail, B&N! Get your pricing in line with Amazon's, which is $8, or I'm going to trade the Nook for a Kindle!

    When you just need a laugh

    Pretty much everyone has seen some of these via an email or text. Having them in one place is nice. From what I could read, I was laughing so hard I was snorting! The down fall I found is the format for the nook. The text is way to small & cannot be enlarged. It makes it very difficult to enjoy when your straining to read it! I reccomend it, but it paper form.

    more from this reviewer

    Great moments in texting schandefreude!

    Are you having a bad day? Pick up this book and be glad you didn't just accidentally use the 'c-word' when arranging an appointment with a female client or tell your mother you've been arrested all thanks to your smartphone's over aggressive (and apparently dirty-minded) spell checker.

    Nook sample

    The sample is only pages 1-7 which covers the title page through the table of contents...no actual content.

    Funny...but not as funny as I expected.

    I had read excerpts of this book on-line and laughed until I cried. However, those snipets were NOT included in the book. While the book was humorous, it wasn't as funny as I expected.
