4.0 out of 5 stars If you like the 3 Stooges, you'll love this book., Nov 16 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idoit's Guide for Dumies: The Fun and Easy Way to Achieve Total Stupidity (Paperback)

As parodies go, it's almost as good as the National Lampoon Yearbook (the best parody of this kind I've ever seen) and much funnier than OJ's Legal Pad. I found myself laughing steadily while reading it, though I was able to eat a PB&J and drink milk without any milk blowing out my nose, which is why it only gets 4 stars. I'm gonna give it as gifts to several of my friends who could really use it. They think they're way too smart for their own good.

5.0 out of 5 stars I May Not Be a Smart Man, But I Know What Love Is, Nov 16 1999

This review is from: The Complete Idoit's Guide for Dumies: The Fun and Easy Way to Achieve Total Stupidity (Paperback)

I read "The Complete Idoits Guide For Dumies," and like my mama said, some books are good and some are gooder. This one is just plain gooder. I loved it lots. I would recomend this book for anyone who needs a better way to understand what being mentally slow is. My mama said that dumies is as dumies does, and I think that lady got something there. Thank you, mama, and thank you United States of America.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious!, Nov 9 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Complete Idoit's Guide for Dumies: The Fun and Easy Way to Achieve Total Stupidity (Paperback)

Although the authors could have done a better job proofreading -- they spelled both the words "Idiott's" and "Dummys" wrong in the TITLE, for gosh darn sakes -- I felt the book was informative and worthwhile for readers of any age, gender, or level of mental acuity. The book, which is clearly a parody and is obviously unaffiliated in any way with the official Dummys' and Idiott's guides that it mocks and spoofs, has definitely turned my frown upside down. If I could ever meet the authors, I would definitely ask them for a free copy of the book, but if they did not comply or couldn't understand what I was saying I would buy a copy with my own money. THE BOOK IS THAT GOOD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wet my pants laughing!
This book is a parody of the now annoying Idiots/Dummies Guides to most everything in life. It's a funny, dead-on spoof of the genre that will have those around you asking... Read more
