Hey anon, first time poster on this board.
I'm looking for some more hilarious books. After the most prolific writer left the Simpsons, Swartzwelder started writing absurdist fiction novels mostly about this Frank Burly character. They've been hilarious so far, but I've read 6 of them so far and I'm ready to move on to some other authors.
What are some of the funniest books you can recommend? I'm looking for some good comedic writing.

I'm an american and I don't know anything about New Orleans. Although I did thoroughly enjoy King of the Hill and I though I knew nothing about Texas. That sounds funny.

It is, is better if you know something about New Orleans but is pretty enjoyable in it own.
Also this one.

It's actually really good. The quote is however quite cringe inducing.

I know a lot of you guys do not like it, but I think it's pretty funny.
Really anything by Flann O'Brien, but this one is an especially pretty pancake
