Is this book supposed to be a comedy? Maybe I'm just too indoctrinated by the memes but I find just about every interaction in this book hilarious.

I thought he explicitly said it was a critique of the feminization of men through the process of consumer goods and other superficial goods.

Yes it’s funny.

I find it funny. Especially all the little remarks Batemen has about everything. I like when he talks about the Pat Withers show the first program that's mentioned is autism.
