Reads less like a memoir and more like a some memoir pieces glued together with pieces Oswalt couldn't find a home for. This doesn't distract from the read, which is quick and funny and filled with some astute observations (even if they do tend to border on the sentimental) about life in the suburbs. A good piece about being a stand-up in Surrey, BC in 1993 ends the book, and the title piece about geek culture leaves a warm smile.
