A cautionary tale about a proto-Redditor; we can't all have a Myrna looking out for us

Most insufferable protagonist I've ever come accross and that's saying something..
Whoever declared this 'the funniest book ever' definitely has a questionable sense of humour

Smart & hilarious...this a bit of craziness. Ignatius J. Reilly is an over-educated buffoon, getting himself and others into all kinds of ridiculous situations. He really is the most useless person. This had great dialogue and some really funny supporting characters.
