2014 Book Review #29: Oh Myyy!
Title: Oh Myyy!
Author: George Takei
Genre: Memoirish ramblings? Essays?
Thingummies: 2.5
Synopsis: George Takei rambles about stuff!
Thoughts: George Takei is a very funny man.
Clearly some publisher agreed, and said, "Hey George! Want to write about book? We'll give you money!"
George said, "I like money. What should the book be about?"
The publisher said, "I don't know. Stuff? You write stuff on the internet. Why don't you write about writing stuff on the internet."
There's not a lot of...here, here. George Takei rambles about Facebook. Also, Twitter. That's mostly it, really. He includes a couple memes. It's moderately amusing, but at the end, you realize the entire exercise was kind of pointless. It's the book equivalent of mindlessly browsing someone's feed--a strangely engrossing way to pass time that then leaves you feeling somewhat empty without actually curing your boredom.
