Books like The Alphabet of Manliness

I just picked this up in a used bookshop during lunch. I opened randomly to page 9, with the headline "Head-butt to the Ovaries" (in the first chapter, titled "A is for Ass-Kicking") I laughed out loud. This is Man Show humor, and I'm someone who thinks Adam Corolla is one the biggest jackasses in show business.Yes, it's juvenile. It's also satire. It is a mockery of the manly stereotype and therefore itself. It probably helps that I'm tired-- I've put in more than 80 hours during the past 8 days inside a fluorescent-lit cubicle farm, not to mention taking a 300-mile overnight road trip this weekend-- but anything that makes me laugh like that is OK. I haven't finished it yet and I'm still giving it top ratings.I'm sure it wouldn't be near as funny were I to read it a second time. Most humor has a shelf-life. Easily offended people, the politically correct, emo-boys, and other "sensitive" types will probably not enjoy this. I don't even recommend paying full price for it ($15.95). I wouldn't. I paid $5 to a local business and the puerile laughs were worth every penny.
