Dec 17 2010Sadly A Real Book: 'Farmville For Dummies'

HA! Thats sad

Not even an e-book?

Does this mean from now on random advertisements for this book will start popping up between pages of any other book we try to read?

Really? I kinda thought you had to wear a helmet to play that game.

Is that a double negative?

I kinda though dummies was implied with the very mention of farmville.

I prefer the original title, "Farmville"

This saddens me to think the human species has fallen this far

I got one thing to say: Fail

You might as well learn how to plant tomatoes in a pot on your balcony.

Step one: locate the power button on your computer.

Hmm... I've never played 'Farmville'. Had a bad feeling about it. Is it worth checking it out for a laugh, or would I just be embaressing myself?

@9: DON'T go near 'Farmville.' I know people that have set alarms to plant and harvest crops. It's like smoking: potentially addicting, and when addicted, deadly.

Uh, GW, you can just block the app itself (so you'll never see status updates about Farmville) without having to unfriend your friends, but THAT'LL TEACH THEM!

Anyway, this is exactly what I thought when I saw the Managing for Dummies book. How do they allow dummies to manage? No wonder things like Farmville exist... I also thought it would be funny without the "for" so it would say Managing Dummies, which can also be a common situation.

There's a typo on that cover. There should be an "is" after "Farmville."

Yeah.

I'll be in the parking lot waving a towel. It's time to leave the planet.

Thanks for all the fish.

The sad thing isn't that this game exists, but rather, that people need a guide for it. I mean my god! you don't see a guide for super mario bros or tetris. I actually tried this game like 2 years ago when I first got a facebook account and it's one of the simplest games I've ever played.

Isn't this title kind of reduntant?

@Shelbon:

No guide for Mario?

@17 wow... I stand corrected, there is a guide for super mario bros. But I think my still stands. Why would anyone need a guidebook for farmville?

The whole world is slowly coming to an END... Seriously, this "Farmville for Dummies" is a new low... Flippin' pathetic!

It's a full 4 pages long!

There's a bonus chapter called: how to alienate yourself from everyone on facebook (who doesn't play farmville)

"But I think my still stands."

Huh?

congratulations internet, we can now be officially this stupid!

Chapter 1: it is important that you know how to shake to death a baby (or others) if interrupted by its continuous crying and whining. you can do this by grabbing hold of it beneath the arms and shaking rapidly, remembering to hit its head against the wall 1 or 2 times and always stopping every 5 minutes to have a fag break "to compose yourself".

(P.S. the for dummies book company will not be held responsible for any deaths caused by baby shaking or smoking (or other "violent acts" mentioned in this book) thank you) :)

They should also make a book 4 thinking.

what next, "how to open the perfect cult for dummies!" ? lol

Thanks for your articles.Thanks for your sharing.Hope you will allow me to post here.Thanks very much for you.Have a nice day.
