Andy Baio: i wonder if this 1984 joke book i found aged well, it pokes fun at “just about everyone” so i’m sure it’s fine

i wonder if this 1984 joke book i found aged well, it pokes fun at “just about everyone” so i’m sure it’s fine

it did not age well

the same guy also wrote a 1988 “computer freaks” joke book with Woz

and over 50 more, with titles like these, all of which I assume aged equally well

Thank God these are all preserved, the Internet Archive is our most valuable resource archive.org/search?query...

at last someone dares to take down the powerful Eskimo lobby

Only one page for the Dutch? They’re not even trying.

Is it just the angle of the photo, or does the type really get larger by the line, implying that “Eskimo” jokes are the most powerful and impressive?
