Following his appearances on Conan and his Comedy Central special, Brian Scolaro releases his first book of his jokes, rants and musings. "How to Punch a Monkey" is a ridiculous journey through the mind of one of America's best underrated comedians. It contains his thoughts on topics like social media, death, being fat, sneezing, New York, sports, good-looking people, and the lighter side of his battle with multiple sclerosis, as well as nonsensical sketches like a conversation with his penis, the Ten Commandments writing session, an Old West Sheriff who pronounces the word "posse" wrong, and things never said by Mother Teresa.
He goes from silly...
I have self worth. I just don't use it. I finally had Pissghetti. It was disgusting. Frankenberry was the first openly gay monster. God must be tired of organ music by now. When I was a kid I went to John Cougar Melon Camp. It was awful. Two men in Hazmat suits just took away my pajama bottoms. I hope the guy who invented the beeping "put on your seatbelt" noise died in a horrible car crash.
...to dirty.
"Tickle My B*lls Elmo."
"Doesn't Aer Lingus sound like you eat somebody's p*ssy on an airplane?"
"It's a "c*ck" when it's hard. A "d*ck" when it's soft. And a "pen*s" when you are at the doctor's office."
Plus, a collection of little known facts about history.
