Review of
Beer
Is Better Than Women Because . . . by the Cucumber Group ISBN 0880321954
Four out of five stars
The jokes in
this book are all a combination of a cartoon accompanied by a short segment of
text. Many of the jokes are based on sexism and/or a cliché about the behavior
of women. Some are not and are quite good. One of my favorites has a cartoon of
a very sweaty woman that is clearly odiferous, and the caption is “A beer
tastes good after 3 hours of tennis.” Another
good one has a man overloaded with packages and trailing a woman. The caption
is, “You never have to take your beer shopping.”
If you are
willing to tolerate a bit of sexism and can laugh at somewhat incongruous
situations, this is a book that will amuse you. Like all collections of such
jokes, some are dumb, and others are based on a bit of truth in the
relationships between males and females.
