I went out with a chick once who was obsessed with him. Like...she didn't care that he was gay...she wanted his babies. I've never read any of his stuff or ever listened to him. I'd like to one day...just to see what all the fuss is about.

Isn't he the brother of that Strangers With Candy woman?

5/15/2013 2:19:35 PM

ya

5/15/2013 2:21:23 PM

i enjoy his anecdotes and he's fairly humorous but some people are crazy about him.

5/15/2013 2:24:32 PM

His brother or half-brother or something owns a flooring business in Raleigh

I've had the Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim audiobook on my phone for about a year now. Only made it about halfway. It's semi-entertaining, prob gets a few extra laughs because it's set in NC but meh

5/15/2013 2:31:15 PM

i think he's pretty interesting, but i don't have a major boner for him or anything

5/15/2013 2:32:04 PM

Hey did you guys know he grew up in raleigh???

the real stories are better than the fake ones

but amy is way funnier

5/15/2013 2:40:18 PM

nah, just kidding.

i recently remember seeing some video of him reading a passage from 50 shades of gray.

5/15/2013 2:41:14 PM

^^
i don't think i've heard any of the real ones

I like his writing, but I HATE listening to him talk.

He stands atop of the pinnacle of irritating voices that make animals commit suicide along with Fran Drescher.

brother

and I'll take this opportunity to again let the world know of my huge crush on Amy Sedaris that's been going on for 10+ years now

5/15/2013 2:48:12 PM

I never saw the Strangers w/ Candy movie. I meant to, but never did.

5/15/2013 2:55:02 PM

i need to watch strangers with candy again. haven't seen it since high school

i generally enjoy his audiobooks.

5/15/2013 2:57:34 PM

I enjoy his audio books.
Like when he talked about getting crabs from pants that he bought at the thrift store. Macklemore fans take heed.

5/15/2013 10:16:18 PM

I read his books but I rarely laugh. I like dry humor, but unless it's read out loud it goes right by me.

5/15/2013 10:23:52 PM

It's the deadpan delivery. He's hilarious, and a lot of it is because his delivery is so dry...it's a tongue-in-cheek narrative, and I love it.

And I want to meet the Rooster.

And I'd bone down on Amy if I was single and she were willing. Neither is the case, however.

5/15/2013 10:44:29 PM

I don't really find him entertaining. I want to. He is good at telling stories but the stories he tells are just... blah
