Funny Books from Funny Blogs

A big theme in humor blogs is to collect some of the "best of" and several "never before seen" entries and create a book! I don't totally get the point of owning these books since they're not the type I'd read over and over, but they would be the type that would be fun to pass around among friends. If you're ever looking for a huge sleep-robber (a.k.a waste of time but just can't.stop.clicking), check out the websites that inspired these books.
