Product Description

Review

'Do Bats Have Bollocks? is the follow-up to Do Ants Have Arseholes?... last year's Christmas hit and that rarity among seasonal humour titles -- it's actually funny!'
--The Bookseller

Product Description

How easy is it to fall off a log? Where is the middle of nowhere? Do we really have no bananas? The readers of OLD GIT magazine are a batty, befuddled, potty-mouthed bunch, who seem to spend a significant chunk of their spare time corresponding with the publication's popular letters page. DO ANTS HAVE ARSEHOLES? is a very funny, very silly collection of questions and answers taken from this column, none of which has any basis whatsoever in fact. A must for all those who relish a heady mixture of shaggy-dog stories, toilet humour and utter lack of insight.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you like to laugh . . ., 12 Dec 2007

By	Snappy Witherspoon (I'm not telling) - See all my reviews

And who doesn't, then buy DO ANTS HAVE . . . and laugh your arse off! i got this along with Sedaris's DRESS YOUR FAMILY IN CORDUROY AND DENIM and haven't had such a good time in a while. Both books are funny. DO ANTS actually is informative and fun. Would also recommend DIARY by Chuck Palahniuk! All great fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lover of laughter, 8 Nov 2007

By	Cheres Negedelu (Compton) - See all my reviews

If you're without a sense of humor, then please, by all means, shy away from DO ANTS HAVE ARESHOLES? But then, if you don't have one (a sense of humor), then you're probably not going to get past the title. Not only is this book informative, but it's funny as everything. Hey, admit it--you WANT to know this stuff. But you were afraid to ask. That's why this book would make such a perfect gift. For those who like humor (think THE FAR SIDE cartoons or the books ME TALK PRETTY ONE DAY or KATZENJAMMER by McCrae), then you'll warm right up to DO ANTS HAVE ARSEHOLES? I originally bought this as a gift idea, then had to get another copy as I wanted to keep mine. Would also recommend the book THE DAILY SHOW.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pointless, Irritating and nowhere near as clever as it thinks it is., 16 Dec 2007

By	Mr. S. W. Redshaw "ivig" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I made a mistake. I admit it. I should have looked at more reviews and got a better idea about what this "funny" book was before clicking the "buy" button - but I didn't, and I deeply, deeply regret it.

Okay, this isn't one of those interesting little books that explore pointless but intriguing little facts, and answers unimportant, but interesting questions; it's a collection of letters sent to the "Old Git" and their "witty" replies...

...Actually, the replies just ooze smug self-satisfaction, and are about as witty as "I know you are but what am I". Note to the authors; swearing for the sake of it does not a clever response make...you could have at least been creative.

No, this is a painful book to read, the print equivalent of David Brent at his most awkward. Stupid questions, sneering self-important replies.

I won't even be giving this to charity (I couldn't do that to anyone). Thank God it's printed on paper...at least I can compost it and make some use of it.

Pointless. Smug. Dull. Utterly without merit. Avoid!
