An interesting read. Can't say that it's something I'll pick up again but I've read worse.

I've only just started the book so I can't give a well-rounded review of it, but those of you giving this 1-2 stars simply because it isn't a comedic book need a reality check. How dare Cho write something that didn't make me laugh! Like she's a comedian first and a human second. Like she exists purely for your consumption. Way to reduce a queer woman of colour and her achievements.

"...the right loves it when the left gets angry. The off-camera shouting makes us look like savages, and that's exactly the image they love to show again and again."

"Life is a tragedy for those who feel and a comedy for those who think. It is vital to mourn the victims of this government, but not at the expense of losing our sense of humor. Our ability to laugh coincides directly with our ability to fight. If we can make fun of it, we can transcend it."
