My Dog: The Paradox
My Dog: The Paradox: A Lovable Discourse about Man's Best Friend | The Oatmeal, Matthew Inman
5 posts | 11 read | 4 to read
This eponymous comic became an instant hit when it went live on The Oatmeal.com and was liked on Facebook by 700,000 fans. Now fans will have a keepsake book of this comic to give and to keep. In My Dog: The Paradox, Inman discusses the canine penchant for rolling in horse droppings, chasing large animals four times their size, and acting recklessly enthusiastic through the entirety of their impulsive, lovable lives. Hilarious and heartfelt, My Dog: The Paradox eloquently illustrates the complicated relationship between man and dog. We will never know why dogs fear hair dryers, or being baited into staring contests with cats, but as Inman explains, perhaps we love dogs so much because their lives arent lengthy, logical, or deliberate, but an explosive paradox composed of fur, teeth, and enthusiasm.

OMG this is the tiniest Oatmeal book I have read to date and the cutest!! The dog is adorable and precious in this book (yes even when he is licking his balls). Such a great read. Even though I do not have nor will ever own a dog, I understand how dogs work and this book hit the nail on the head. I enjoyed the part where the dog is afraid to look in the cat's eyes. Yup so true. Perfect book for any dog lover.

Sweet and gross and honest. Made me miss my puppies from when I was a kid.

It's kind of hard to tell from this angle, but Samia is floor surfing under my recliner. I can't put my feet down. 😂🐶 #dogsoflitsy #petsoflitsy

Mimi28 My cats jump on the foot part of the recliner that is up and take naps there. Or I have one on each arm or even on the back of the chair by my head ❤❤ 7y
