"The three-hour meeting had taken place in a two-hundred-seat room nicknamed the air-conditioned rectum.

Coupland has an uncanny ability to take items from the zeitgeist and place them into a narrative that is fun to read.

This book takes all those moments and puts them together into one fun place. Also check out the TV series based on the book at www. .
