I can absolutely see how this book is beloved by so many—it is funny and incisive and clever and it brings up lots of really engaging ideas about philosophy, morality, and religion, while just being straight up entertaining. There are certain things that have not aged well, such as the casual use of "f****t," which didn't sit well with me, and for which I have removed a star. The full cast audiobook production was marvelously well done.
