I just think hearing him read his book would enhance the whole experience because part of why he is so funny is his way of delivering a joke. I thought the book got off to a rather slow start. I loved him including some of his old Weekend Update jokes as they are still as funny now as they were at the time.

I do have mixed feelings about this book. I probably would have enjoyed it more if it was in the style of a typical celeb memoir. But Norm is anything but typical so I guess I do appreciate the fact he went in a completely opposite direction. I recommend giving this one a chance if you are a fan of his, but get the audiobook instead of reading it in written form. This is not your normal, straightforward memoir, far from it, actually.

The best that I can describe it is off-the-wall or zany. Zany is not usually my cup of tea--I'd rather have a straight memoir dishing on all of the author's inside information on show business and especially Saturday Night Live. Having said that, there were parts of this book that were really funny.

That was its saving grace, the humor was on point. I still would've rather had more of Macdonald's real experiences, but this This is not your normal, straightforward memoir, far from it, actually. I still would've rather had more of Macdonald's real experiences, but this was a pretty cool book, a decent read. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this in exchange for an honest review.

Yup, neither statement is true! He writes himself as a scheming conman and morphine and gambling addict, determined to borrow a million bucks from crooks, turn it into multi-millions at the casinos, and retire to a ranch. Norm briefly mentions growing up on a farm and being molested by a slow-witted farmhand before launching into his stand-up career, touring with and learning from the likes of Sam Kinison. And aside from writing Lorne Michaels as a morphine addict like him, the numerous famous people who appear throughout only get brief mentions.

I liked though that Norm wrote the Rodney Dangerfield and Don Rickles scenes in the style of those comics — very funny! Especially as Adam Eget does act like a damn idiot all the way through! Maybe next time Norm should jettison the pretence and just write a crime novel instead? I might like that better…. Jan 05, Brandon rated it it was amazing Shelves: , favorites , ha-ha-very-funny , biographies. Rather than tell you his real life story, Norm decided to write of his one-time plan to borrow millions of dollars from various casinos in Las Vegas, turn that money into millions for himself, then retire to a ranch in Montana.

As the story moves along, Norm, strung out on morphine, tells a completely skewed, often fictionalized version of his life to his pal and real-life Based On A True Story is the autobiography of famed stand-up comedian Norm MacDonald - or so he would have you believe. As the story moves along, Norm, strung out on morphine, tells a completely skewed, often fictionalized version of his life to his pal and real-life podcast co-host Adam Eget as he drives them from LA to Vegas.

His time on Saturday Night Live is discussed with his arrival at the show depicting Lorne Michaels as an unhinged drug addict whom Norm bribes with government-grade morphine to secure his spot. His obsession with fellow cast member Sarah Silverman was a definite high point of the book - it had me laughing hysterically as he cluelessly pursued her, leading him to plot to assassinate her then-boyfriend Dave Attell.

This had me cry-laughing. The idea that Norm would portray himself as a narcissistic, delusional monster was completely unexpected and easily puts this in a category of its own.

If you're a fan of Norm Macdonald's humor, read this book. Well, don't read it - listen to the audiobook. It's hard to get too much into what makes this book so special without "spoiling" it. Ultimately, it proves how vivid and accurate a picture you can create of a person when you're not restricted to facts alone. The more the book a novel plays around with the memoir format, the more true to Norm's mind it gets, and the more meaning you'll find if you're paying attention. The audiobook adds a If you're a fan of Norm Macdonald's humor, read this book.

The audiobook adds a whole extra layer to the comedy and the formal experiments - and truly feels like the essential form in which to consume it. Being able to hear Norm's thoughts, jokes, and absurdities in his own voice and rhythm enhances the material, obviously, but that's only half of it. You just have to listen. View 2 comments. May 29, Danger rated it it was amazing. This was hilarious and weird and dark and so very, very Norm Macdonald and I loved it. Sep 21, Courtney rated it it was amazing.

I have long been a fan of Norm Macdonald, and with good reason - he is brilliant. I have long been anticipating his book, and with good reason - he is an immaculate storyteller. I was hoping to savor this treasure, to dwell on the tidbits of gold for indeed he did give gold, not straw and a Rumpelstiltskean task like he claims but I quickly became consumed and did not come up for breath until I read the very last word.

I had heard rumors that it was to be more fiction than fact, and while I I have long been a fan of Norm Macdonald, and with good reason - he is brilliant.

DOCTORS’ SLANG.

I had heard rumors that it was to be more fiction than fact, and while I would love to hear more bona fide accounts of his life, I also knew not to expect it, at least not fully. He is not one to tell tales out of school after all. But, he does show that he is one to examine subjects like the meanings and interpretations of truth and perception and apply these concepts in self-examination of his life.

The ghostwriter narrative of the story is riveting. At first glance I expected Keane to be used as another voice of self-deprecation, but his spiraling storyline is both entertaining and haunting. As his journalist brother's wonderful article on the book discusses, it is definitely a book that will be appreciated by his "cultists".

Also In This Edition

The book is an arresting read and displays his light darkness and probably will be appreciated by neither literalists nor the faint of heart. I've always loved how he can make me laugh at bleakness but I know that's not everyone's cup of tea. There are a lot of gems and beautifully written passages. He also asks the important questions, like: "Do you consider Wink Martindale historically wicked?

Jan 01, Chris Jaffe rated it it was ok. Well, that was disappointing. Norm Macdonald is hilarious, and at times this book is as well - but it keeps getting in its own way with a schtick that is more annoying that entertaining. The premise is intriguing: Norm will tell stories about his life, but make stuff up along the way hench the title of the book.

OK - and the book gets off to a nice start with supposed childhood tales. But two things in the book undermine it - and both get stronger and more pronounced as the story goes on. First, Norm keeps including his life "tales" with a fictional get-rich-or-die-trying effort at Las Vegas. This tale is rarely interesting - and takes up damn near half of the book. Second, he includes little bits from his fictional ghostwriter who hates Norm's guts. The first bit or two of it is cute, but it becomes more involved and more elaborate and the ghostwriter has a breakdown, nearly attempts suicide, and then comes to think he's actually Norm Macdonald himself.

By the end of the book, it's the story of Norm on the run from a loan shark and dealing with his mentally ill ghostwriter. Plenty of moments are funny, and the book might deserve three stars out of five, but I was increasingly annoyed by it as it went along, so two stars only. Jun 07, Don rated it it was amazing Shelves: comedy. I don't think. It appears to start off as one, but then about halfway through, Norm seemingly tires of the genre and turns his life's story into something of a ludicrous picaresque novel.

One of the delights of this read is the way in which he makes this transition; it took me a few pages to realize what was happening, and at one point I actually turned to Google to see if Norm had in fact committed any criminal acts against Dave Attell. It's basically Norm doing his dry dumb-guy shtick for pages, but he's so masterful at this, and his one-liners are so well-crafted, that it never felt tiresome.

And that moth joke. Goddamn, I love that moth joke. Jun 10, Eleven rated it really liked it. I'm one of those people who laughs at Norm even when he says something that arguably isn't even funny so I'm a little biased. This entire memoir is bullshit but it's very entertaining bullshit. Disappointing I like Norm's work and respect that he took a risk in the format and tone of his autobiography. No, it wasn't derivative or sentimental or overly kitschy -- but it also wasn't very informative, clear or entertaining Nov 03, Krista rated it really liked it Shelves: can-con , memoir , There is the way things are and then the way things appear, and it is the way things appear, even when false, that is often the truest.

I'm Norm Macdonald and this is the fake memoir Okay, Norm Macdonald doesn't actually admit that this is a fake memoir, but Based on a True Story is both more and less than the typical celebrity tell-all: anyone looking for a behind-the-scenes look at SNL will be mostly disappointed; anyone looking for the sad facts of There is the way things are and then the way things appear, and it is the way things appear, even when false, that is often the truest.

Norm McDonald - Moth Joke [napisy PL]

Okay, Norm Macdonald doesn't actually admit that this is a fake memoir, but Based on a True Story is both more and less than the typical celebrity tell-all: anyone looking for a behind-the-scenes look at SNL will be mostly disappointed; anyone looking for the sad facts of a stand-up's childhood that shattered his psyche and drove him to perform will be disappointed; anyone looking for a book-length shaggy dog story that provides many laugh out loud moments and some intimate revelations will leave satisfied.

And come on, this is Norm Macdonald ; who goes into this expecting sincere or serious? The narrative moves between Macdonald and his real-life friend Adam Eget and their adventures on the lam, and sections where Macdonald recalls his childhood in the Ottawa Valley and even a quick fact check reveals he's actually from Quebec City, so who knows what bits might be true? Meta, eh? Before the ghostwriter was introduced, I was noting how overwritten sections felt, and I got a wry amusement out of the idea that Macdonald was pulling my leg; purposefully writing slightly cliched and florid, as any amateur writer might: The slam of the car door wakes me, and my dreams fall away as the facts of my life tumble back into my empty head.

I'm alone in the car and look out to see that I'm at the edge of the desert, the God-forsaken desert where the snakes go hungry and die eating dirt. I see that Adam Eget is out there pacing around, agitated, a cigarette stuck to his mouth like always, like they must teach everyone to do at AA. And he's cursing a sky that has no stars, so I ask him what the problem is.

Comic Book Crud: Ryan B does Jokes From The Crypt

That's not terrible writing, but the fact that Macdonald kept the whole thing balanced on the thin edge of is-he-being-serious-or-ironic-with-this made me smile throughout and when the self-important ghostwriter claims responsibility for the writing, the reader is encouraged to like the end result even less. Further irony, when Macdonald is describing his early success on the stand-up circuit: I quickly developed a cult following.

That sounds pretty good, but the truth is that it's the last thing you want to develop. The only time having a cult following is a good thing is when you are actually in a cult. Then you get to be a cult leader and life is milk and honey. First off, everyone thinks you are God, so you get to tell them all what to do. Your followers bow down before you and give you all their worldly goods, which can really add up, even with a smallish cult. The best part is you get to lie down with all the ladies from the cult, even the married ones. In a short matter of time, you become drunk with power and begin to lie down with the men also, not because you want to, but just because you can.
