Okay, it sounds like an oxymoron, but it's not. This is very funny stuff here, but you need a certain intelligence to get it. All I know is that, unlike what is said to be funny these days, this calendar made me laugh a lot. There's so much scope here: inanities from celebrities (this is an easy one, no?), politicians doing their usual hot air act, and so on. Bottom line: I needed a laugh, and this calendar definitely delivered! I recommend this based on my flip through and am planning to buy some as gifts now. We all need a laugh these days, especially here in New York.

If you like getting a laugh a day, you will certainly enjoy this. I ordered one for myself and have already begun to read it, well before the New Year. I started laughing and didn't stop. There is a great cross-section of humor here. My personal favorites are the very bizarre typos that appear in newspapers and, of course, the quotes from politicians. On the flip side, for serious and truly thought-provoking wisdom I have been enjoying a little book by Taro Gold called 'Open Your Mind, Open Your Life.'

This is a page-a-day, so you're supposed to wait for the next day before you look, right? Sorry, can't do it. This great calendar is too funny to wait -- I usually end up reading ahead a month or two, jut to keep myself going. Then on the next day, I read the old stuff again for another good laugh (what a full life I lead!!). Seriously, this is a seriously funny calendar, with all the unintentionally humorous stuff that mostly famous people say (or write). Thanks to the Petras' for this annual tummy tickler -- keep 'em coming!

Bought this after reading their book and love it. (I've read through June already.) If you want to laugh every morning, this is the calendar you need. Each day gives me at least a chuckle, but usually a good loud belly laugh. Great stuff here.

This will be my third year with this laughable lunacy. One could say that I'm addicted at this point. I recieved my first Stupidest calendar as a gift and now buy one for myself, in addition to buying them as gifts for others. The best thing in my mind: Rather than being one single type of humor, it's a collection of different forms -- quotes from people in the public eye, odd headlines, misbegotten newspaper typos, mistranslations. It covers a wide range -- a veritable cornucopia of hilarity, if you will. Highly recommended for personal use or gift-giving.

I really love this calendar -- my only problem is I always read ahead at least a month, then have to wait for the next month to get new stuff -- call me frustrated! Can't wait for next year's to come out.

Love this calendar. We've been getting it for a couple of years, and every year it's as fresh and funny as always! Never fails to make me laugh. The Petras' really know how to find the ludicrous, the ridiculous, and the just plain dumb. Wonderful!

I have found this calendar consistently hilarious so far. It's not just stupid things that people have said (although that appears to be the bulk of it), but it is also newspaper typos, odd signs, and the like, which, to my mind, is a plus. Personally, I think that the mixture of types of quotes is what keeps it fresh. I never know what to expect from day to day, but am always laughing at the newest quote, whether it's a sportscaster, athlete, peculiar sign, mistranslation, or whatever. This diversity of humor is what makes it unfailingly funny to me and I recommend it.

VERY stupid stuff -- and I can't stop laughing! This is too good. Newspapers, celebrities, pols, you name it, and I am loving them all these pompous [people] making fools of themselves.

Call me a snot (call me a taxi!), but is there anything better than seeing others (especially the rich and famous, or the media) caught in the act of foot in mouth? As I said, I am in HEAVEN! LOVE this!

This stuff is for real which is what makes it so funny. I have been laughing my head off for a month now and have already read ahead and know that I'm going to be laughing for the entire year. This is a very funny calendar and what makes it the most funny, to me, is that this isn't just jokes, but actual things that were said or written.
