"I liked the idea that a part of one's body might be thought of as lazy - not thoughtless or hostile, just unwilling to extend itself for the betterment of the team."

This book has no business being hilarious and simultaneously devastating. I’m here for it

finished: introduction to the 2013 version (originally published in 2000)

I normally skip introductions. With old books, they tend to be "spoilers", and if it's an introduction by someone who isn't the author, I frankly 🤷duncur

Re-read!
Gifted this book to Michael for his birthday since David Sedaris was my funny go-to author for chuckles when I was a teenager --- I have!! however!! never read him in english so I'm a mixture of excited and anxious to find out if he still lands with me now :D
