"America: The Book" by Jon Stewart

[DroppinScience]

Oh God, this book is freaking hilarious... and dead on too.

I got it for my brother for X-mas (thank God he doesn't post here ;)) and I couldn't stop putting it down. I finally had to wrap it up in an act of self-control.

When he opens his present, he's gonna have a tough time yanking it out of my hands. :p

[D_Raay]

[D_Raay]

I'll send you my copy after I have read it. I will probably read it cover to cover in a day.

No, "America: The Book" is a brilliant satire of a traditional text book. Nothing to do with aidskids (your broken English leaves me confused as to what this is about).

"If con is the opposite of pro, then isn't congress the opposite of progress? OR DID WE JUST BLOW YOUR FUCKING MIND!"


good stuff.


also, i think it would be fitting to point out that the beastie boys make an appearance in the book as well.......page 90, top right corner.... (y)

[ASsman]

"Do you know what Bicameral means? Are there any bi-cameral girls in your class?"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, ok I must have it now!

[Rosie Cotton]

Yeah, i didn't get it.

they mentioned something about "the right to party" being fought for as well.

yeah, i got it when i was stuck in cincinnati for six hours. read it that night. shit's hilarious. (y)

[ASsman]

It's both funny and depressing.

[adam_f]

My dad bought it for me the day it came out. I thought it was a textbook for a second. Then I realized that was the joke.

[DroppinScience]

Oddly enough, it turns out my Dad bought "America: The Book" for ME!! :eek:

But that's okay, double your pleasure. ;)

[HotAndWet]

I got my dad this for x-mas, I didn't wrap it until Christmas eve cuz I kept looking through it, I looooove it. (y)

[monkey]

i bought it soon after it came out. i loved it. i think i might read it now again maybe.

it was the only textbook ive ever read cover to cover :o

[DandyFop]

I find the best way to read it is cover to cover. I tried reading bits and pieces and it wasn't as funny as just reading it straight through. I bought mine for half price, woot, but then gave it to my bro for Christmas cause I couldn't think of anything else.
