This book is a collection of humorous vignettes that deals with universal experiences we’ve all shared, but they’re viewed through a quirky prism that will make you laugh at the absurdities of life. Everyone's seen the effects of plumbing gone amuck, travel plans gone awry, and unruly pets, so much of the book is family humor; but then there are those chapters that will appeal to the truly weird at heart—over-the-top goofiness that will make you grin until your cheeks hurt, roll your eyes until they turn up cherries, groan, and laugh out loud. None of that abridged LOL stuff allowed, mind you; you have to guffaw until people stare, and then I rather expect that you’ll be too embarrassed to tell them what it is that you find so funny. So go ahead and be weird, even if it is vicariously, because there is no better way to spend a day than with a smile on your face and ridiculous sounds of mirth escaping from your mouth.
Would You Rather be BORING or WEIRD? edition by Lisa Kaplan Humor Entertainment eBooks
There's something to tickle anyone's funny-bone in this book. Kaplan writes with imagination, wit, and insight about partners ("Picket Fence Fantasies," "Designated Housespouse"), parenting ("The Wimp of Mataguay"), pets ("My Mother, The Murderer," "The Dynamic Duo"), the perils of homeownership ("Under The Big Top," "If It Tastes Bad, Dial 1"), and experiences directly or indirectly related to her work as a nurse ("Come In, Howard Cosell," "Blowing In The Wind," "20-20 Bug Vision"), among other topics. For Baby Boomers, chapters of the book also provide a pleasant stroll down Memory Lane and may evoke reminiscences about their own mothers and siblings (especially "Hi, Mom," "Hand-Me-Down Relay"). Readers will readily relate to Kaplan's concerns, even if the absurdity of some of her anecdotes -- or maybe just her talent in telling them -- stretches the bounds of the ordinary. I found myself frequently laughing and in places thinking, "At least I don't have it that bad!"The book is well worth the price just for the chapters on her mischievous Golden Retrievers that out-Marley Marley ("The Dynamic Duo"), her stint as a Boy Scout Camp chaperon who deals with more than lousy food and a dirty outhouse ("The Wimp of Mataguay"), and turning forty ("From Here To Eternity": a must-read for any woman).
This is Kaplan's first book; I hope she writes another one. Kaplan rivals Dave Barry in her ability to spin humor out of pedestrian but telltale objects -- latrines, garbage disposals, cups of coffee -- and she writes about her life experiences with the wit and insight of an Erma Bombeck.
Oh yeah, if you want to know whether you're boring or weird, read "To Be, Or Not To Be."

Would You Rather be BORING or WEIRD? edition by Lisa Kaplan Humor Entertainment eBooks Reviews
Kaplan's original and zany outlook kept me laughing from page 1 on. The topics are varied but common to most of us. Look out, Dave Barry!
Wonderfully funny! So glad I picked this one up. What a joy. Kick back, relax with a cup of tea, and enjoy.
