The book is a compilation of different experiences from Gary’s life, not in chronological order. It’s a quick read and humorous.
Not as funny as I thought it would be.
Summary: From Janetti: 'These are essays from my childhood and young adulthood about things that still annoy me.'

Such a fun & quick listen (I listened to the Audiobook.) Gary has so many great stories and such heart. So funny!
As an avid child TV watcher that was also obsessed with soap operas and sitcoms, this was great. A fun and quick listen.
This was a funny, fast read. I wish it read chronologically rather than skipping around, but overall I really enjoyed. The audiobook is read by the author and it makes it ~that~ much better.
This book would have been really great if it were written in 2002.
Do You Mind If I Cancel? (Things That Still Annoy Me) by Gary Janetti was somewhat of a disappointment. I was expecting something along the lines of David Sedaris and this was not it. I listened to the audiobook version in its entirety, thinking that the content would improve but alas, it was not meant to be. I did not find the book offensive, I simply found it extremely boring. Listening to numerous essays about someone’s sexuality is intensely uninteresting. I expected more humour and less ranting. This is only my opinion and I am sure that this book will appeal to many.
I want to start this review by stating, I am obsessed with Gary Janetti’s Instagram. The Prince George memes are absolutely incredible and I love Family Guy, always have. But, I didn’t love this book. It felt disjointed all the way through. He jumped around telling stories about growing up but I feel like I learned more about his favorite soap opera plot lines than I did about him.
I did enjoy the last two pages of the book, but would have loved reading more stories about him getting into the writing business and life after he moved to LA as well as his life before all that.
