Colbert Calendar review
The calendar was purchased as a Christmas gift for my son, whi is a huge Stephen Colbert fan. He loves it! Every morning I can hear him chuckling as he rips off the previous day's page; I'm sure he starts off his day in a great mood. Although not well versed in Colbert humor myself, I also enjoy his rather unusual take on everyday life.
Lost in translation
I bought this because I thought it would be sarcastic and slightly informative, like Colbert's show. His humor doesn't translate well on paper, you can't taste the sarcasm like you can on the show. I bought this calendar for my desk in hopes that it would be witty and clever, but it's really just offensive (and I'm not easily offended). It was a huge mistake and now I just keep it in my drawer. While it does bring the occasional smile, it's not something I can share and laugh about with my co-workers (in my opinion the essence of a good desk calendra). The actual item was in perfect condition and the service was great so I'm not knocking that, but I wouldn't recommend this purchase to the most avid Colbert fan.
