You gotta love duhDilbert's creator!

I don't know whether you have to appreciate Scott Adam's "dark side" to enjoy this book, but it helps. His dark side? His non-cartoon creations, whether business-related or not. Of these, they range from The Dilbert Principle to God's Debris. The TEXT drives the deeper meanings, and not the drawings.

In Stick to Drawing Comics, Monkey Brain!, Adams steals from his blog and looks at the world through his Dilbert-framed sunglasses. You immediately are transported to Adams' world:

"Thanks to hurricane Wilma, nothing has crapped on our Eyewitness News van for hours. Back to you, Bob."

"If I'm dumb enough to buy water, I'm certainly dumb enough to pay too much for it."

"And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them."

"Rule 472: Before you touch a monkey god's tail to cure your leprosy, make sure the tail doesn't have a little hole in the end."

This book is organized (?) as a series of short chapters, reading as a blog in that you can "feel" his timeline as Adams vacations in Maui, plans his wedding, and so on. Don't miss Hi Jean (p. 19), Try this at home (p. 36), Adopting (p. 55), and German cannibal (p. 120). You will learn about the Scott Adams Diet (p. 101) and the Albra Cadaver (p. 107).

The book includes Dilbert strips that didn't make it past the editors, and a surprising amount of political-social-ethical insights. For example, should inDUHviduals respect the beliefs of others? Adams gets serious...

"Many of our biggest world problems are caused by different religious views. But its not socially acceptable to even discuss whether those views originate from the almighty or a drunken guy whizzing on a tree stump. At a bare minimum, just to pick one example, either Christianity or Islam is completely and utterly wrong. The beliefs are mutually exclusive. Muslims believe all Christians will burn in Hell. Christians believe that the Koran is fiction. They both can't be right. (They could obviously both be wrong if the Heaven's Gate guys turn out to have it right.)" (p. 116).

Witty, humorous, caustic, satirical, sobering, scathing, insightful... expect everything from this book, because it IS another thought experiment.

Weird Humour from Normal dude

This book was so funny that I lost weight due to my hearty tummy flopping laughter. I gave it to my anemic girlfriend and she almost died. My geriatric Boss was so pissed at the office humour of Dilbert Blog that he wet his pants while trying to yell abuses. My dog didn't bitch about his walks when I showed him the book which he chewed into right away.

Bwahahaha! Now they will read it!

I've already read it all being a regular visitor to the Dilbert blog, but I think I'm going to enjoy it all over again :) I hope my favorites are in it :) I also now have the perfect gift for my friends who share my twisted sense of humor!

Best Christmas Gift

If you have been following the Dilbert Blog by Scott Adams then you should have read most (if not all) of the entries. But that doesn't mean this book is not worth it. In fact, all of the chapters in the book have been deleted from the blog so the only way you can read them now is to buy this book. It also makes a great gift to someone who doesn't read the blog. Highly recommended.
