Today in my mailbox I got an advertisement pamphlet from Deseret Book. Out of boredom I glanced through it. It cracked me up. Absolutely none of this am I making up but it's probably only funny to exmos. It's the Fall 2011 one.
1. The Testimony Glove. Page seven. "Royalties from the sale of this book assist in providing testimony gloves to children in developing countries." Also, "glove inside." --Yeah that's what developing countries need, testimony gloves.
2. Janitors. Page nine. Yes really, a book about janitors. Actual quote, "Janitors is very exciting." --Hahahaha.
3. "Happy Like Jesus." --Only funny because the picture appears to be two male hippies groping in a pool.
4. "Foggy with a chance of Murder." Page 23. Actual quote, "While the tragedy opens Chloe's heart to a new religion, the boy's father, a recent widower, becomes the target in a chance of attacks that are anything but random."
5. "Last Laborer." Thoughts and reflections of a black Mormon. --Nothing I can say here would not be racist.
6. "Seventeen Miracles." Actual quote, "based on actual events."
7. "Seven Tipping Points that Saved the World." Actual quote, "One of the best HISTORY books I've ever read." --Glenn Beck.
See any other funny or ironic ones on their site? I'm sure there are more.
