New Rules
If you're liberal, this is hysterically funny. It's a collection of "New Rules" from Bill's HBO series, "Real Time". His show is one we never miss, and is basically the way we get our news. He, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are my family's news team, unless something important is going on in the world, then we relent and flip on CNN.
But back to the book. Being it was released in 2005 and it's political, it is somewhat dated. But that's why I got it on the bargain shelf at Borders in hard cover for $3.99. I can do dated for $3.99.
And not all of it's dated. Like this ditty:
New Rule: Stop screwing with old people. Target is introducing a redesigned pill bottle--it's square, with a bigger label, and the top is now the bottom. And by the time Grandpa figures out how to open it, his ass will be in the morgue. Congratulations, Target, you've just solved the Social Security crisis.
Most of the New Rules are shorts like this, and most have something crass or offensive in them, particularly if you're deeply conservative. I'd say that if you're a big fan of Rush Limbaugh, this probably isn't a book for you. If you lean toward the left, however, and you like to laugh at everything and everyone from George Bush to Britney Spears (but mostly George Bush), you can't go wrong for $3.99.
