I don't know if I read this so much as inhaled its humor and weirdness. Truly hoping for a Part 2 sometime. Until then, there's always Drew's Twitter feed and many online projects.
This book is generally well-reviewed but, honestly, I was disappointed. I love the eponymous website; even own a couple of Drew's t-shirts. And while this book captures the essence of his humor, it's not at its finest: the images are tiny and are generally overpowered by the matching word blocks. For an introduction to "Toothpaste for Dinner," visit the website and hold off on the book until you're a firmly established fan.
I have laughed myself to tears on various modes of public transit while reading these simple comics. I cannot express, in words, the genius of this collection.
See a preview at [http://www.toothpastefordinner.org/]. Be careful not to pee in your pants. Seriously.
Not bad, had some funny jokes. It's just a 'adult/teen' version of a elementary joke book. It's pretty funny at some times, and I liked the cute little photos. If you want to read this, go ahead. If not, you aren't necessarily missing out on anything.
Fucking hilarious stuff. This is a must read for my fellow, eternally disaffected office workers. Should http://www.toothpastefordinner.com/ and his wife's companion site, Married to the Sea (look in TPFD's banner) ever meet the criminally tragic fate of going down or getting pulled from the Web, I'll know I have this brilliant compendium of strips archived on paper to hark back to. Print more collections, Drew. Print more!
It wasn't funny, and most of the jokes were lame or would only be funny if the audience understood the author's job. I didn't finish it because after reading 20 pages, I realized that it was a total waste of time. I could have been reading something way more entertaining, or something that I could at least sympathize with.
