All Families Are Psychotic

This is a good book.
I'm going to say something weird, it's really similar to the history of love by nichole krauss, but better. I know right? I probably never would have thought of it if I wasn't reading/listening to them at the same time.
But this book is also a bit like jackass goes to the prom. Or richie rich takes a slum day.
The quotes on the back say things like: "douglas coupland all growed up"
this book is not all growed up, in fact it's a fairly juvenile book. But lets actually be straight up and honest here, that's what we like about guys like Coupland and cooper that they are juvenile's. No one picks up a bret easton ellis book and thinks now we are going to have some serious adult entertainment. at least no one who knows anything about ellis. Well this is the same.
It's kind of VERY VERY much Harold and Kumar go to NASA. or zach galifrinakas and the other guy from the hangover go to NASA.
It's like those new comedies that are written by the guys who are actually the funny people not some writers in a room somewhere who think carrot top would be great for this part.
Am I making any sense? No? oh well?

I also want to clarify when I called this book juvenile I actually didn't mean it as a slam, I was just talking about a type of book. if that makes sense.
