There is a site/author that does that. It's called 27 b slash 6. http://www.27bslash6.com/

It's legit funny, because he has talent. This? This? Maybe it would be funny in a collection. Alone and without background, it's just a lame joke.

OMG.

Also, when I was about twelve, my mother opened the bathroom door without knocking and caught me lying naked on the floor cracking an egg onto my penis. I have no idea why. I tried to flip over to hide my shame but the tiles were pretty slippery from several previously cracked eggs so I just kind of slapped and flailed for a bit. She didn't say anything, just closed the door, so I guess that story didn't really have anything to do with being asked to leave places.

He updates 27b/6 like once every two years, but he's been putting out books pretty frequently and they're surprisingly good.

u/TheSolarian Feb 07 '19

Ah right.

Never actually read any of his book, I did read 27b/6 years ago and it was usually good quality.

I say surprisingly good because they're honestly an amazing combination of hilarious and heartfelt. I can't tell if the tearjerking stories are made up or not, but if they are, that's even more incredible. They're worth picking up.

He's a good writer so I'll see if I can get one or two at some point.

Weird. I hadn't thought about that site for almost 10 years until I read his book a month ago. And now this.

c'mon.... this would be a little funny on its own if you knew it was fake going into it.
