Most enjoyable, absurd, silly read since I read A Confederacy of Dunces.

RIP Norm.

Having finished the hard copy, I’m going to now listen to the audiobook that Norm himself narrated. Looking forward to it. If you haven’t read this book, give it a try!

I read it about a year ago.

I'd have to call it a classic of modern humor.

Just don't rely on it for facts...

Listened to it a few months ago in one sitting. Fantastically absurd and classic Norm. Almost felt bad for Adam Eget. Bought a physical copy shortly after.

Just started this based on this thread.

I truly believe it when he said he told the ghost writer “I just need you to type what I say, we’ll knock this out in a week.”

With every sentence you can’t tell if it is a real story, complete BS, or a set up for a punch line.

As a Norm fan, it’s great.

Huge Norm fan here. Frequent wearer of 'I'm Not Norm' garb.

Thanks for the recommendation, I just ordered the hardcopy. The guy was brilliant and a blessing.

Only the good die young.
