"We Thought You Would Be Prettier" by Laurie Notaro
Title: We Thought You Would Be Prettier
Author: Laurie Notaro
My Grade: B+
Laurie's latest book of autobiographical essays are amusing as ever. Ones that stood out for me include...
Drive to Survive
Laurie has to spend a day in driving school for some traffic violation with a bunch of other loonies. That includes: a old guy with scary Grandpa Munster eyebrows, Pissed-Off Guy (later known as Pissed-Off Guy Was Right), and some Paris Hilton wannabe. Now, that's what I call hell.
Booty Call
Laurie and her friend go on a quest to find boots that will fit their... FATTY CALVES. After hunting around all over San Francisco, they finally find them! Unfortunately they would look more appropriate on Jack Sparrow or Captain Hook. But hey, boots are boots... right?
National Stupidity Day
Laurie is having one of those days. You know what kind of day I'm talking about. When every stupid person in the world seems to be in your way, wasting your time, etc. Yeah. One of those. If you can't relate to this, then guess what? You're one of the stupid people! Get out of our way!!!!!
