Synopsis

Cleverly whimsical yet oddly informative, The Oatmeal.com is an immensely popular site full of comics, quizzes and stories. This collection presents classic favourites as well as all-new hilarity with any never-before-seen comics, such as 8 Reasons to Keep a Canadian as a Pet, 6 Reasons Man Nipples Are Awesome & 5 Reasons to Have Rabies Instead of Babies. Inman creates these quirky scenes for theoatmeal.com, which launched in July 2009 and already has more than 82 million page views. In fact, every 15 to 30 seconds, someone Google's one of theoatmeal.com's creations. Now, 60 of Inman's comic illustrations and life-bending guides are presented in full-colour inside 5 Very Good Reasons to Punch a Dolphin in the Mouth (And Other Useful Guides).

In 2009, Inman put his hand to the page, and the world hasn't stopped laughing since. (Nick Carbone, Time)
Dangerously funny. (TODAY.com)
Delightfully absurd musings on both everyday life and fantasy from an unusually creative mind. (Kirkus Reviews)
