BEHEAD ALL SATANS

Candide is funny, a lot of Shakespeare is obviously funny, Kafka’s Trial is funny, the Gospels are funny (apostles are comic relief).

Read The Communist Manifesto, and then remember that three of Marx's kids starved to death.

Fucking hilarious. Since we know that political opinions are largely heritable, we know that those disgusting rat-faced brats would've been good little leftist scum just like Marx.

Instead, they became the first good communists by starving to death. Imagine him sobbing over them as their little hearts struggled to keep beating, and then froze forever. Imagine how he wailed and gnashed his teeth, imagine how he pounded his Jewish fits against the dirt floor of his house, how he screamed and cried. Then know that Karl Marx died on the floor of his shitty house, shuddering and alone, weeping in agony.

That disgusting Jew just couldn't bring himself to do a day's work. He just... Couldn't do it. A good little leftist, murdering his children a hundred years before abortion became legal.

Nature always finds a way to punish the wicked.

Tree man on a boat. And try some books by P G Woodhouse they are great, or some Terry Pratchet discworld.

anyone who unironically laughs constantly while reading a book is a supreme redditlord.

you get the whole spectrum of private Svejk's humour within first 35 pages, the rest of the book is just repetition of the theme ad nauseam

>My sweet little whorish Nora I did as you told me, you dirty little girl, and pulled myself off twice when I read your letter. I am delighted to see that you do like being fucked arseways. Yes, now I can remember that night when I fucked you for so long backwards. It was the dirtiest fucking I ever gave you, darling. My prick was stuck in you for hours, fucking in and out under your upturned rump. I felt your fat sweaty buttocks under my belly and saw your flushed face and mad eyes. At every fuck I gave you your shameless tongue came bursting out through your lips and if a gave you a bigger stronger fuck than usual, fat dirty farts came spluttering out of your backside. You had an arse full of farts that night, darling, and I fucked them out of you, big fat fellows, long windy ones, quick little merry cracks and a lot of tiny little naughty farties ending in a long gush from your hole. It is wonderful to fuck a farting woman when every fuck drives one out of her. I think I would know Nora’s fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women. It is a rather girlish noise not like the wet windy fart which I imagine fat wives have. It is sudden and dry and dirty like what a bold girl would let off in fun in a school dormitory at night. I hope Nora will let off no end of her farts in my face so that I may know their smell also." - James Joyce

very funny, and very edgy, had a good chuckle!

Protocols of the learned Elders of Zion
Shitpost: the book

If you're a Trump supporter, then Hillary Clinton book "What Happened".

At one point she talks about how Alex Jones has (had sadly) videos talking about all the children she had murdered, raped , and eaten. I had to put the book down from laughing so hard imagining what normies were thinking while reading that and maybe looking Alex up.

Tortilla Flat is my go-to for sensible chuckles. Every time I get to the part where Big Joe Portagee steals a goat every day and it wanders back home at night I can't help but giggle.

Lucky Jim by Kingsley Amis had me kekking desu. Great hangover description:

>Dixon was alive again. Consciousness was upon him before he could get out of the way; not for him the slow, gracious wandering from the halls of sleep, but a summary, forcible ejection. He lay sprawled, too wicked to move, spewed up like a broken spider-crab on the tarry shingle of the morning. The light did him harm, but not as much as looking at things did; he resolved, having done it once, never to move his eyeballs again. A dusty thudding in his head made the scene before him beat like a pulse. His mouth has been used as a latrine by some small creature of the night, and then as its mausoleum. During the night, too, he’d somehow been on a cross-country run and then been expertly beaten up by a secret police. He felt bad.
