ADAM RESNICK - WILL NOT ATTEND.

 

A man devoted to keeping everyone the fuck away from him for the sake of peace and privacy sets out the tales of those times when, as a kid, he didn't have peace or privacy. Resnick apparently wrote for Letterman. That experience shows with laugh-out-loud stuff when he writes about his psychopathic brothers and strange father, psychopathic brothers not necessarily being the stuff of humour most of the time. His survival in those surroundings creates the basis for most stories.

I have to mention the story about his father picking up the groundsman (could be the janitor) at the boys request and then finding out it wasn't the groundsman after all, just a lookalike, and taking him on a long ride, is classic humour. Highly recommended for humour aficionados and for those with psychopathic brothers, just so you know you're not alone.
