Weirder than Hiroyuki Nishigaki's seminal "How to Good-bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way?"

Top review:

> My husband bought it for my 34th birthday. I do not recommend anyone buying this as an actual gift.

I might buy it as a gift based on the absurdity of the reviews and the title of the book.

There's more absurdity if you look at the "other customers also bought" section.

Is that just machine translated Engrish that’s been through an editor?

Not exactly. It's machine-translated Engrish, but I don't think it's fair to call whoever compiled it an editor.
