This one is absolutely hilarious. In small doses only; Otherwise your sense of humor will shut itself off from overload. In many ways it reminds me of The Portable Curmudgeon
by Jon Winocur, if you can find a copy of that. The book is a wonderful collection of subtle and not so subtle put downs. (disses in the current vernacular?) Some quotes are attributed, usually to famous (notorious?) people and some are anonymous, but all truly are poisonous.
