Comedian Mitch Hedberg’s creative legacy is celebrated in this collection of seventeen short stories inspired by his most-loved jokes.

An acid trip, a quest to reclaim the sesame seed, an underground association of sandwich enthusiasts, the first ever suburban koala infestation, a Nyquil-tipsy priest, a view from inside the parade, a very, very hungry diner, a girlfriend who isn’t, and an apartment where every few feet is a bedroom, the seventeen stories in this anthology “yes, and” the jokes of late comedian Mitch Hedberg. At turns hilarious, poignant, silly, haunting, and rife with word play, What I Thought of Ain’t Funny, an anthology of short fiction based on the jokes of Mitch Hedberg pays tribute to the imaginative ingenuity and the writing genius of Mitch Hedberg, opening up the ridiculous of this world, and hanging out with the complicated human beings who live inside it.
