Dan Gets a Minivan

This book has nothing to do with my life. Really – this guy lives in Brooklyn, works from home in the web business, has kids, is around forty, is unathletic, buys a bigger vehicle so he can fit his kids, and dreams of moving to the suburbs. He writes about bringing his kids to play in Carroll Park and looking for part-time nannies. Really nothing like me at all.

I felt like the rock musicians in the 80s who saw This is Spinal Tap for the first time. You come out of it thinking, haha, that was really funny! After a little while – it's funny because it's true! Then eventually, oh my god, it's true. Then it's just, oh. god.
