Can someone tell me about a book that's actually funny?

This garbo and Hitchhiker's Guide both came off dated and disappointing.

The Illuminatus! Trilogy is funny but might be dated for a few people (wasn't for me though)

I found American Psycho funny but in more of a hysterical type of way

Slaughterhouse 5 had some similar themes to your pic related

What are some other American black comedy or tragicomedy books besides Catch-22, Lolita, Infinite Jest, A Confederacy of Dunces, Gravity's Rainbow?

Could Gravity's Rainbow be considered black comedy?

Try john swartzwelder. Had me laughing out loud a lot

Pale Fire
At Swim Two Birds

These are the only books I've read by Nabokov and Flann O' Brian, respectively and the funniest books I've read overall. I presume both have other funny, good works.
