#25 David Sedaris
January 26, 2008 by clander
For many of you, this post will be a confusing as you wonder who exactly this David Sedaris is. He is a humorist who writes for the New Yorker and has seveal books including Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice.
His stuff is kind of funny, but white people go crazy and will pay hundreds of dollars to hear him read from his own book. Let me say that again, they will pay money to see someone read from a book they have already read. They know the jokes are coming, they know the punch lines, but they feel the need to hear the author actually say it.
White people universally love David Sedaris. So if they ever ask you “who are you favorite authors?” you should always reply “David Sedaris.” They will instantly launch into a story about how much they love his work, and the conversation will go from there, and you don’t have to talk about books any more.
It is also safer than saying Jonathan Franzen, Dave Eggers, or Shakespeare. White people are very divided on these authors and might actually ask you questions about why you like them. Stick with David Sedaris, you can’t lose! If they do you press you, just say “I read a lot, and I never laugh out loud from a writer, but Sedaris is just brilliant.”
This advice will make white people respect you, trust you and more willing to invite to you parties.

Bonsoir les amis quel est votre avis de mon nouveau site sur le diagnostic immobilier?
Didn’t realize that the tassel person was speaking of Burroughs, not Sedaris. Sorry!
You got the wrong author. You’re referring to Augusten Burroughs work which has been compared with David Sedaris’ work. The in thing now is to say: “Augusten Burroughs is okay, but David Sedaris is so much better!”
It’s all about the masturbation room with you isn’t it?
Also I will never be able to look at a blanket with tassels every again…
I don’t read David Sedaris; I prefer Augusten Burroughs.
you are stupid
I love David Sedaris. He inspired me to write my own book of essays: ” Stop Waiting for Prince Charming! He’s Already Married to Bob. The Odds of Getting Married and Other Nonsense. ” I’ve sent him a copy. I hope he enjoys it! His books are gifts to the silly hearts out here!
