Description
Rated R for Ridiculous: A Comedy Anthology is the laugh-packed, genre-ignoring, wildly overconfident collection of short comedies absolutely no one asked for - and yet here it is, proudly existing. Crafted by a cadre of obscure geniuses no one has ever heard of (people who have been left unsupervised near keyboards), this book barrels headfirst into the absurd with the confidence of a goose in an F-14. It is at once overhyped and astonishingly pleased with itself.
Drawn from more than a dozen talented, absurd authors showcasing 1-3 of their works. There are also two poems and a brief real-life story of the absurd and stinky.
Perfect reading for bowel movements, waiting rooms, or any location where you wish to appear busy while avoiding human interaction.
A book brave enough to ask, "What if greatness... just kinda winged it?"
You could call it groundbreaking. You could also call it a warning.
Either way, it's too late now.
