Not for me - not funny, not entertaining

I have found that if I wouldn't want the author of a book of essays as a dinner guest, I won't like the book.  The author of this comes across as shallow, superficial, and whiny - not your ideal dinner guest.  Saying negative things about yourself is only funny if the audience DOESN'T believe its true.  I admit I only got about 1/3 of the way through this book; it just didn't seem likely to improve THAT much in last 2/3.

I would instead recommend  "What on Earth Have I Done?: Stories, Observations, and Affirmations" by Robert Fulghum as a much more positive and enjoyable book.

I hated this play from beginning to end.  I went with someone who had an extra ticket.  I am African American so I may have a different take on the humor here.  I did think some of the actors were good, but I just couldn't get into the vulgarity and content of it.  Obviously it is a very popular play.  A woman who sat next to me laughed at everything.  She informed me that it was written by the same people who wrote South Park -  a show I don't watch.  Then she said "I guess it's white people humor".  Yeah I guess it is.  Anyway I would not recommend it.

I did not enjoy this book - I did not even finish it; it was not my type of book.

Not my cup of tea--too self absorbed and not all that entertaining.

This was one of the least entertaining books I've read.  The author didn't make me care one bit for the characters.  The descriptions of the times and places were bland.  Just not a good read for me.

Every time I purchase something I don't like, I  become annoyed.  Within the first few moments of this story I was annoyed.  I guess I am just  hard-boiled crime procedural fan and like plausible stores with plausible people, and this was really stretching it.  I am not amused by attempts at political correctness for the sake of humor and finding human eccentricities of people fodder for humor.  If anything I find this series insulting. I read all of the comments before I purchased this and took everything to heart but this one is really so far from what I read. The thing I dislike oat is the acting.  The director really reined in the actors, and the cutesy music was more than I could bear.  If you are not serious about your detectives, then this is for you. You could slip these adventures in with "Moving On" and no one would know the difference.  The first story is weak and I have become so bored with stories about school children conjuring up serial murders I could gag.  When are there going to be some good stories again? Stories about emotionally underdeveloped and psychotic male detectives and unwed female detectives with clever children who shag anything on wheels seem to be the thing lately.  If this is the way it is we are all doomed. This

I bought this on a recommendation from a friend, and while he usually recommends some good stuff, I wish I would have passed on this one. There's something about this movie that ruins it for me, and I think it might be the attempts at humor. In reviews I had read where this movie is supposed to be funny, and my friend said the same thing. But I didn't laugh once. I struggled to watch the movie at times, as some of it was cringe worthy. I thought the movie was horribly written, directed, and acted.

I  know that their are some movies that you have to "get" to like, and from what I've read and been told this is one of those movies, and I didn't "get" it. I would honestly not recommend this movie to anyone, but, I do see why some people would like it as it is a very quirky, and unique, movie. I can not remember ever seeing a movie like this.

kind of annoying more than funny. my time would have been better spent watching almost anything else instead of this.

I couldn't read past the first few pages, not something I'd suggest to anyone who is looking for a funny or even interesting read.

Not funny at all.  I have no problem with crude humor as long is it's funny.  This was not funny to me at all.  You'd have to either be high or 12 years old to laugh at this stuff.  I suspect many people who gave this good reviews were high when they watched it.  Pineapple Express and Cheech and Chong movies are funny to me.  My bad review isn't because I'm offended.  IT JUST WAS NOT FUNNY AT ALL.  I almost never leave movie reviews.  This was so bad, I felt compelled to.

this is not funny to me...I find the humor very inappropriate at any age.

I really didn't like this show or find it entertaining on any level. I don't recommend that any human being watch this program.

This is the first review and I hesitated because this is just not my kind of book so not really fair rating, but still, others might want to have some opinion.

I got off on the wrong foot because I had the idea this was a murder mystery.  It's not.  It is humorous in a sort of snarky way and so if it misses, it misses big.  (For example some word play about jewelry and it's root word jew).  I got about a third of the way through and nibbled a bit before giving up.  I saw no sign of giddiness, hilarity, or heartbreak.  I simply was not enjoying the book and I was reading for free with Kindle Unlimited.

I strongly recommend downloading a sample to see if it might be your cuppa.

Not for me either!

Forced myself to finish. Violent and vulgar to no purpose. Silly romance thrown in. Characters with no redeeming qualities.

Terrible and not funny.  I read the whole thing hoping it would get better but it did not.  Perhaps the other reviewers are in a different graham demographic than I, I'm 34 years old.

Sorry, but I was expecting so much, I guess  A few laughs, but I don't think this one is my kind of humor, referring to his own kids in negative manner, and wives that tricked him into having them...from the first pages about how awful is father treated him, which I found painful, not funny; I tried to read more but the cynical nature of his humor did not create a 'pleasant and funny read,' which was what I was after...a gifted writer, surely, but I think you have to be in a certain frame of mind to really enjoy, and I was not.....PS  from what I read, there is not actual "physical" violence, but the first stories about his father raised an element of abusive behavior that I found a violence in and of its own concerning the acts themselves... example - making the neighbor boy eat rotten ice cream after choking him in front of his family was just not funny at all...

I didn't make it past the first 15 minutes. I would have turned it off after the first 3 minutes but I was just trying to hang in there...  Too pervy and gross for me. I'm not into movies like this.
