From the elections of Barack Obama and Donald Trump to the tragic events of Ferguson and Charlottesville, the subject of race has come to the forefront of American consciousness. Legendary satirist D. L. Hughley offers his own cutting observations on this contentious issue that continues to traumatize the nation, a wound made more painful by the ongoing comments and actions of the 45th president. Hughley uses humor to draw attention to injustice, sardonically offering advice on a number of lessons, like "How to make cops feel more comfortable while they're handcuffing you".

Tiffany can't avoid being funny: it's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

By the tender age of five, Bernie Mac had found his calling: making others laugh. He has since become the star and cocreator of Fox’s hit sitcom The Bernie Mac Show; a stand-up legend; and a hit movie star in Head of State and Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle. Now, this amazing comedian delves deep down inside to retell the poignant and hilarious story of his childhood and the people who helped shape him into the comedian - and the strong and self-reliant man - he is today.

R. Eric Thomas didn’t know he was different until the world told him so. Everywhere he went - whether it was his rich, mostly White, suburban high school, his conservative Black church, or his Ivy League college in a big city - he found himself on the outside looking in. In essays by turns hysterical and heartfelt, Thomas reexamines what it means to be an "other" through the lens of his own life experience.

But when Issa Rae, the creator of the Shorty Award-winning hit series The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl, is that introvert--whether she's navigating love, work, friendships, or rapping--it sure is entertaining.

Are you a fan of satire? If so, tears of laughter will stream down your legs as you read this book. But please, do not let this book get into the hands of any children. This is the worst children's book ever written. It breaks all the rules of good children's literature: it contains incredibly lengthy and complex words, like "prophylactic" and "radioactive decay"; it deals with disturbing themes, like osteoporosis and lung cancer; and it does not have a happy ending. This children's book has absolutely no place in the life of any child (or adult, for that matter). If you find pleasure from ...

The Journey to Ineffectiveness: A Beginner’s Guide” by Dr JC, presents the novel argument that Ineffectiveness is a good thing and we should embrace it. It lays out a plan whereby we can increase our ineffectiveness. The book introduces our other IQ (Ineffectiveness Quotient), which is measured by our behavior, rather than our mental ability. It introduces a number of areas that present us opportunities to increase our IQ in a humorous, and some might say an outrageous, style.

Examine contents. 'Quick Quirks, A Quick Book' is up your alley into zany qualifications. It marks distinction, such as between the game of Parcheesi and the one that we play in our minds, somehow not involved in losing two-thirds of the way in to the end. The verse here just does not read before read, zingers included. 'Quick Quirks, A Quick Book' by author Benjamin Anderson is very aptly named. It is a very quick book. I read it this morning. It is also ultimately quirky. Things are mentioned, subjects tackled as I have never before seen or read… I believe it is written for readers who ...

Who would have thought the turn of the last Century would one day be ancient history? In "More Slightly Off the Mark, Why I Hate Cats, and Other Lies", former newspaper columnist Mark R. Hunter went back to collect his humor pieces from 2000 and 2001—the earliest ones to be put on a computer. In DOS format, on a floppy disk. The amount of change in just twenty years resulted in Hunter completely rewriting the columns, and inserting his present self (and his dog, Beowulf, through pictures) into the work—mostly to make fun of his older self. Along the way Mark riffs on everything from ...

"You're a comedian? That must be awesome!" It's a familiar response from people who've just met someone that calls comedy their full-time job. On the surface, it's glamorous: laughter, bright spotlights, and traveling the world. But like sausage-making, the real action is far from pretty. What goes unseen is the struggle undertaken by comedians to perform on that stage. In Go Home Happy, stand-up veteran Nathan Timmel leads the reader through a funny, pride-swallowing journey navigating the minefield of club owners, booking agents, drunken hecklers, and unexpected friends.

Just another Southern boy coming of age story. The 60s and 70s were a magical time all across America. In the Deep South we did most of the same things kids across the country were doing but with a Southern drawl. Tales of school, bikes, fishing, hunting, Christmases, and even snow skiing of all things, fill the Mason jar of memories to the brim! When you grow tired of laughing there's even a bit of poetry for the more introspective. I hope you enjoy listening to these stories as much as I did living them. As Per Y'all's Requests...here it is.

The windmills really are monsters. They're killing cattle, destroying villages, and terrifying peasants. With the help of his sidekick Sancho Panzo and his new friend Dora, Alonso, operating under the alias Don Quixote, will have to take them on. Will he defeat the windmills and return the plains of ...
