5.0 out of 5 stars Great zine-turned-book, August 24, 2009
By 
This review is from: You Idiot (Paperback)
I just finished this little gem, and it was great. If I wrote a zine I hope it'd be this random, funny, and well-written. The zine issues featured spend most of their time reviewing "so bad it's good" material- kind of along the lines of Mystery Science Theater 3000, but instead of movies Nate talks about the products of some people's really, really bad ideas. Some topics include: Hulk Hogan and "Macho Man" Randy Savage rap album reviews; a discussion on the effectiveness of anti-drug cartoons; and the evidence some preachers give for why christian rock bands are a product of Satan.

It's the kind of social commentary that would describe why YouTube viewers have watched William Shatner's rendition of "Rocket Man" over 2,000,000 times, and it's done with a great sense of humor. Some things really are so bad that they're amazing for it, and Nate puts himself through the pleasure of enjoying them so you don't have to.
