      Nope nope nope, gotta say no to that one.

      You’re entitled to your opinion, even if it’s wrong. But no.

      Are the references in the book dated? Yes. It is a product of its time, before there was a full realization of what full on global nuclear/biochemical warfare would do to the planet. The movie is good, I enjoyed it. I wouldn’t put it on par with the book. Even the Gaffigan theory doesn’t work, because when I read the book it took me two hours, and then I took a nap

      Thank you for listening to my TED talk

        Thank you for almost respecting my opinion 😂

        I read the comics after seeing the movie, and couldn’t get over how bitter and negative they are. The tone of the movie was much more my thing.

        What’s the Gaffigan theory? My web searching isn’t giving me anything that makes sense to me.

          I was riffing off of one of his old stand up routines.

          Yeah the book was much better than the movie.
          Oh really? You know what I liked about the movie? No reading. It only took two hours, and then I could take a nap
