Read the following selection, keeping in mind the author was in his late 50s:

"Hundreds of utopian self-portraits were crammed into his hard drive, where, using Paint or Adobe Photoshop, he'd pried frames from the fatal scenes in some cartoon or childish film, then spent hours replacing the Road Runner's Wolf or the freeze-dried Hans Solo with a pancake of himself."

Creased the fucking cover in my backpack

One of the most amusing things I've ever read in a book:

"In the guise of restive gayness, my fingertips were drafted in as spies, distinguishing the tight jeans's CGI from the more honest ass secreted in their shadow, bypassing the 'ass' that owed its charm to being squished and repositioned to find the one that didn't deserve to be held hostage and strangled."

Read a bit of this at work, already think its really funny.
