Book Description

Publication Date: 4 May 2007

'Almost dangerously hilarious. A ridiculous book that fails in
every aspect but one: being the funniest thing in the world' - Tim Moore,
author of French Revolutions and Do Not Pass Go.

The Internet: the greatest aid to communication in human history, a
repository of mankind's accumulated wisdom, and a global community where
free speech reigns. But mostly it's a family sized bucket of filth.

Confessions of a Chatroom Freak contains the lurid transcripts of genuine
conversations between beautiful chatroom addict LoopyLisa21f and a
succession of would-be suitors.

By turns disturbing, hilarious, and surreal, Confessions of a Chatroom
freak reveals what our friends and colleagues really get up to online - and
then confuses the hell out of them.

After Confessions of a Chatroom Freak you'll never engage in cybersex
again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Put down the Internet and walk away 25 Jan 2008

By Mr. S. Berry

Format:Paperback

If you've ever engaged in electronic flirting (dot matrix frottage, or "dottage" to the youngsters, I believe) you'll know that sometimes people you meet on the Internet aren't what they seem. For a start, nearly all of them are illiterate and many do not have even a basic knowledge of human anatomy.

Thankfully, LoopyLisa21f is not one of those people. Possessed of a graphic ability to describe all the body's orifaces and the various fluids that come out or go into them, this is her life story online. Like the films Hard Candy, You've Got Mail or Indiana Jones And The Lost Weekend Of IRC, this story demonstrates the horror that unfurls when a bit of harmless computer banter is allowed to escalate into a bit of more harmful computer banter.

Mr Biffo has constructed an excellent expositional study into the metatexuality of modern social function, interactivity and communications paradigms. This is an entertaining novel that will have you.

4.0 out of 5 stars BIFFO BOOK! BIFFO BOOK! BIFFO BOOK! BIFFO BOOK! 2 Jun 2011

By Will Millinship

Format:Paperback

I bought this book because a) I was drunk, and b) it was a penny (plus p+p).

Luckily, it's the best penny (plus p+p) I've ever spent.

Follow the adventures of LoopyLisa21f, a young, soon-to-qualify primary school teacher, as she bats off potential suitors from all 4 corners of the wwweb with stories of her bad friend Craig, her unhinged father and some extraordinarily badly-lit, unflattering photos.

5.0 out of 5 stars I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe... An essential purchase-me-do. 1 May 2007

By Phil

Format:Paperback

Trust me when I say that this is one of the funniest books I read recently. Never has a trawl through the slightly sordid world of internet-chat rooms been so amusing, thanks to the off-kilter mind of LoopyLisa21F (aka Mr Biffo).

This adopted persona manages to confuse, tempt, bewilder her virtual-suitors, bringing their best laid plans of potential cybersex crashing down in a ball of surrealness that had me quite literally, slumped on a desk, crying with laughter, tears in my eyes, snot dribbling out my nose while fighting for breath. Not a pretty sight, but still a glowing testement to how funny this is.

This author is not half as funny as he thinks he is. I waded through pages and pages of self-satisfied ramblings in the hope that some jewel might emerge.

It didn't. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Dull and unispired

This book consists of pages and pages of largely lifeless dialogue with barely a funny moment to compensate for the effort of ploughing through it. Read more
