Next to confederacy pic related made me chuckle the most

It's not good literature but it's funny

i though catch 22 was pretty funny, but it also has very dark moments

Your working boy wouldn't be able to attempt to organize sodomites into a political party for peace, while wearing a pirate costume in a book written today.

The book's made immensely sadder by the context of the author, who feels unappreciated as an author in the same way Ignatius was. you can't help but imagine he saw himself like the disgusting figure of Ignatius

Confederacy of Dunces is legitimately hilarious.

Catch-22 has its good points, but is lmao fedora humor, that was mostly hilarious for the 60s, but not so much now.

Catch 22 is fucking hilarious. It's nonsense to the max, but it's organized and well-planned nonsense that makes some salient points. Yeah, it's also pretty dark and sad, but it's a great laugh too. I find books with this great balance to be pretty rare.

you guys sounds dumb. most of what makes catch 22 funny has been subsumed by popular culture everywhere.

bc it hasn't aged that well, but fedoras praise it like it's the crown of all modern comedy novels (it is not).

Still one of the funniest books I've read.

Tristram Shandy is hilarious as well.
