A Book of Stupid Stuff Frank S Farello

What exactly is this book? It's a mash up of the art of malapropism and the mixing up of synonyms, antonyms, homonyms, intentional misspellings and a general screwing up of the English language to produce (hopefully) comic results. It's a mixed bag of stories, letters, poems and other silly stuff that comes from a jar somewhere in the back of my mind labeled "Dumb Things That I Think Of." The style is a conglomeration of nonsensical prose and verse that a variety of individuals and publications have undertaken in their own unique way and in doing so gave credence to my own natural style of humor which led me to realize that I wasn't slowly going insane. Here's a brief listing of some: John Lennon, Leo Gorcey, Mad Magazine, Lewis Carroll, James Joyce and even some Monty Python thrown in for good measure. So, while we've all experienced things in life that vary between the ridiculous to the sublime, without a doubt this book definitely belongs in the ridiculous category. Hope you enjoy it!
