I Hate Facebook Fred Raker

"I Hate Facebook: And Nine Other Humor Pieces The New Yorker Did Not Find Humorous" is a collection of Shouts & Murmurs-type pieces from former "Tonight Show" writer Fred Raker, who was also a staff writer on the ABC-TV late-night comedy show "Fridays," featuring Larry David and Michael Richards. Subjects range from marriage and Yelp reviews to ballot propositions and Donald Trump. If you're an avid New Yorker reader and have found the recent crop of Shouts & Murmurs to be a tad arid, you'll find these brief but boffo offerings a welcome change.
