Yep, this book was written for me- Tommy Boy and Black Sheep were one of my earliest memories of "this is hilarious and I want to be like them when I grow up"- don't worry; I didn't. It was cool to go back and rewatch old SNL episodes, knowing a little about the back story. It kind of makes it funnier. The only part that bummed me out was the extracurricular activities (drug use, cheating), but I just reminded myself that a) International Super Star Phenomenon and National Treasure David Spade is still a mortal being like the rest of us, and b) no one is perfect- no matter how many times you rehearse a routine.
I'll probably listen to this again when I need a good rib ticklin'.

When I saw this one on sale I had to grab it. David Spade is so funny, and I was hoping the book would be too!
It was, and it wasn't. I hate to admit, I liked him more before I read his book.
He's funny, sure, but most of this book was him telling stories about his life. The ones he chose to tell have my eyebrows raised, I mean, maybe he really isn't that interesting after all, but especially with Chris Farley, I was disappointed in what he revealed to us. They really were not the most flattering things, for a guy who says he loved him. You'd figure the tales he told would be more endearing, not embarrassing.
So I feel like I wasted a couple bucks here, but that's ok. Not everyone that you admire will be so admirable in the end.
