Seriously, the funniest book, ever


I am reading what must be the sickest, most politically incorrect, most fun (if not for all the tragedy) book ever, Our Dumb World: The Onion's Atlas of the Planet Earth, 73rd Edition. a parody of reference atlases everywhere, complete with maps, map keys, pie charts, and line graphs.
Excerpts:
Rhode Island, the basic unit of geographic measurement, exists solely for the purpose of describing how big other landmasses are.

A rich and chronologically arranged land, where flash photography is expressly forbidden and cell phones must remain turned off at all times, Egypt is bordered by a collection of medieval manuscripts to the east, Greek and Roman sculptures to the west, and Renaissance art one floor up.

Buy it today!
