Customer Reviews

A disappointment
Was atracted to this book as a birthday present for my son (21) by the front cover hamster saying bollocks, which had some kind of charm, but the rest of the book is just pictures of animals with speech bubbles with a desperate attempt to insert the rudest, crudest and almost senselessly meaningless swearwords, just not clever. I believe Adrian Edmonson helped compose this book and it seems like his style, he has been funny with Rik Mayall (The Young Ones, and other TV series), but this book is a flop. Rik's 'autobiography' book has had bad reviews also ("awful, awful, awful" said someone) and I agree with that too, another flop - silliness does have its limit. Pets with Tourettes could have been funny, a good idea, but here the humour has been mercilessly ground into the dust. Save your cash.

lighten up and laugh your rocks off
This book was placed in front of me, as I worked, one Thursday afternoon. Never have I been moved so quickly to tears and feared for my ability to breathe in, or the steadfastness of my rimmel eyeliner.

How I laugh at this book. How I laugh to the point where I think I can't possibly find anything else to laugh at, only to spray my coffee all over my keyboard. but then, I was raised on Tiswas so make your own judgements.

Ahh but the title, some people could be offended. It's rude and it rhymes, doesn't it. Yes, yes, clever. But how would I feel if I saw a book entitled 'Nuns with guns' or Arabs with crabs'? Is this politically correct? How do the nuns purchase the guns and do they use they aggressively or defensively for God stuff? How about the people with crabs who come from other parts of the world? Do they need to switch religion? Or can they buy lotion and remain agnostic? If the lotion needs a prescription, is the restriction of freedom to purchase an infringement of human rights? Is it free?

Are we? Who are we if we can't titter at the daft these days?

This isn't a dig at anyone with a disability, or one group of people and it's definitely not to be analysed so intensely.

I laugh my rocks off at this book, which has no agenda. It's animals saying really dirty things and it's very, very, very funny.
Long may we laugh my friends.
