Man Walks Into A Bar: The Ultimate Collection of Jokes and One-Liners

Description

Man Walks Into A Bar is probably the best joke book in the world. No, let's face facts, it IS the best! This is not a book half-filled with limericks, humorous quotations or bad jokes from last year's Christmas cracker. It's stuffed fuller with hilarity than Simon Cowell's inbox is full of death threats. The authors spent a year and a half collecting jokes from every possible source - books, classic stand-up, millions of joke sites on the 'net, even their friends - piling high this mountain of mirth. They did what no compilers had done before - they identified all the less funny gags and donated them to Jim Davidson. What's left is 6001, 100 per cent pure jokes categorised according to subject: Men, Women, Old Age, Blondes, Marriage, Screwing in a Light Bulb, Dumb Exam Answers, Religion, Money, Ugliness, Doctors, Sex (lest we forget) - you name it. If you've ever heard a great joke, it's more than likely in this book. Ideal for speechmakers or anyone who needs jokes in such helpfully specific categories as Chat-Up Lines: Extra Saucy, Hair and/or The Lack of It, Sex: Genital Misfortune and Etymological Conundra. Man Walks Into A Bar really is the ultimate collection of jokes and one-liners.

The ultimate chuckle-fest * Modern Woman * Billing itself as "the ultimate collection of jokes and one-liners" pretty much sums up this 550-page book * The Big Issue *
