It's a book... b-o-o-k.

Read once in a while, people!

Yes, I have it, have The Soddit as well.

Both great entertainment ;)

I have it.

I read it on a 45 minute flight to spain.

Not that spectacular.

I suppose I was 12.

I never heard of the book, but when MAD did their spoof of LOTR they called it Bored of the Rings too. Fellowship was called "The feeble schtick of ka-ching!" and 2 towers was was called "The 2+ hours."
It was one of the best sattires They've ever done"
*goes off to read it*
"A horse is a corpse, of course, of course!
And I am the corpse that rides the horse.
And with great force and no remorse,
we kill those Slobbits dead!":D :D :D :D :D :D

I'm fairly certain that's fallacy. I can't remember who did but I've read them both and Barry trotter almost certainly isn't by the HArvard Lampoon, but I might be wrong. I'll check later.

I dont think they are done by the same people,though the covers look extremly similar.

Different writers, but both from Harvard Lampoon.

I read siome of this and decided to buy the book. Got about half way through and put it down.

Sorry, but i thought it was shit. Theyve just thrown in words like clearasil, vaseline and bitumen in random places, like that makes it funny.

Maybe i would have laughed if i was still 12 or something, but i thought it was a waste of time.

the soddit and bored of the rings have to be some of the funniest books ever published.
