Description
Written for people who are just completely sick of themselves, An Off Day In My World’s Fair contains more than 2,500 jokes and one-liners that offers readers one example of how to make nothing of themselves and being happy with the end results. A well-deserved getaway day. Willidau has taken leave of his senses to spend one day taking care of himself. Ken Willidau’s philosophy is that if you can’t get away from yourself take yourself away from you. Willidau treats himself fairly on his off day, amusing himself with all the things life has had to offer and throws it back at you. And you’ll be the one caught up in his escapism. Chapter exhibits make the day one to really remember and one to really forget. Among them, “Hall of Mirrors”, “The Food Building”, “A Rollercoaster Ride”, “The Freak Show”, “The Tunnel of Love” and “The Fireworks Extravaganza” make the day one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences. The day is spent with a host of jokes using wit, dark humour, bottom 10 lists, tongue-in-cheek, plays on words and double entendre humour. Spending your day with Ken will take your mind off you while he goes out of his. An Off Day In My World’s Fair is a perfect read for those times when you know what to do with yourself and you just don’t care too.
