This book is not just funny. This book made me laugh out loud so many times my wife and family asked me what was wrong. Great book.

If satire is your thing then this is well worth a read. I bought it on the strength of subscribing to "The Daily Mash" and it didn't dissapoint. Poking fun and news stories and national issues over the past year in a very intelligent, brutal and extremely funny way. A very easy read, the only potential problem is if your partner is sat next to you whilst you are reading it or you are in a public place whilst reading it. I can see how the laughing out loud and crying(which I did)could become annoying.

The 2007 edition of Debrett's Guide To Etiquette states:
"A good host will be aware that the condition of their water closet will reflect, in the mind of the guest, the condition of one's house as a whole. It is therefore vital to ensure that the fixtures are not only scrupulously clean and in good working order, but that all comforts necessary for a rest break are provided.
Clean towels (both linen and paper) should be provided, as well as the choice of scented and unscented soap. Air fresheners should not be overpowering and it is crucial that, as a host, one should provide a decent range of reading matter while people are sat trying to shoo a barking otter out of their hoop."
As far as toilet reading material goes, "Halfwit Nation" is a classic of its genre. Packed with hysterical spoof articles, it's the ideal gift for the meditative defecator in your life.
Excellent stuff.

Yes, It's different from the version that arrives in your email, but it's just as hilarious. If you like Private Eye's funny bits, you will probably like this even more. Read more

Perfect for the downstairs loo!
There's a good laugh on every page. The short articles make it perfect reading material in the downstairs loo!

Laugh out loud funny
Very funny stuff. No-holds barred satire with plenty of jokes that are just plain daft. As sharp as Private Eye at its best combined the sheer joy of Viz in its heyday. Read more

Mash up your Christmas
The Daily Mash is the UK's answer to the Onion, and often surpasses that site in biting satire. With a rude, offensive and often unrepeatable take on current affairs and news, it... Read more
