We recently got a galley of the upcoming book Sh*t My Dad Says by Justin Halpern (Harper HC 9780061992704 $15.99, due May 4th) and let me tell you this: I normally loathe books based on blogs (or in this case, a Tumbler micro blog), but this is seriously funny. I can’t remember the last time I had to catch my breath from laughing so hard.

My co-workers seem to agree, as any thought of getting work done is obliterated in an endless succession of guffaws.

The language is colorful to say the least, and many of the quotations are unprintable on this blog, but here’s a prime (and clean) example:

You look just like Stephen Hawking … Relax, I meant like a non-paralyzed version of him. Feel better?… Fine. Forget I said it.

It’s not rocket science when I say that this will be the Stuff White People Like for 2010.
