Editorial Review:

Celebrating 15 years of mind-blowing success--and supreme stupidity! The #1 top-selling black-and-white Page-A-Day is back with a whole new batch of shocking ignorance, malapropisms, foot-in-mouth moments, celebrity airheadedness, and government spin: "Rat complaints have gone up, but we see that as a positive thing, because more people know how to contact us now."--New York City complaints hotline bureaucrat. Plus hopelessly mixed metaphors, odd menu items, dumb tourist questions, and supermodel Naomi Campbell: "I love England, especially the food. There's nothing I like more than a lovely bowl of pasta."

not as funny as it used to be:

I receive this calendar as a gift in some years. I have been mildly disappointed with the 2009 edition, mainly because a lot of the daily features don't, in my opinion, fall under the category of "stupidest things ever said." Typos, mistranslations, and deliberately ironic statements do not necessarily represent stupidity.
Nonetheless, the calendar's quotes are more often funny than not.

Hilarious, brings a smile or hearty laugh nearly every day:

I have ordered these calendars for several years and have enjoyed every one. The items are always funny and some are downright hilarious. It brings a smile to my face even on the toughest and most stressful days at work. This year's calendar is as good as any in the past and has already brought me and my co-workers many hearty laughs. My thanks to those who generate this calendar every year.

wrong kind of calendar:

I misunderstood the format of this calendar, i.e. it was separate papers and so not practical for keeping track of appointments, etc.

Stupidest Things Ever Written:

In one sense there was no false advertising because the calendar title is "365 Stupidest Things Ever Said." I had the idea that they were so stupid that they would also be funny. Some sayings are so stupid they are funny, but, at least to me, most of the quotes are simply stupid. Everyone's sense of humor is somewhat different so there is a slight chance that you'll laugh so hard the tears flow, but I don't think so.
I guess the joke is on me. I paid money for it. Don't waste yours.
