not impressed by some vocabulary they used

Why do some writers think adding a swear word here and there would make a better story is beyond me. I'll keep looking for actual refreshing stories.

I grew a bushy moustache just by listening to this

This was the finest piece of literature I've ever had the pleasure of listening too.

At first I was unsure about listening to bed time stories at 4 pm but how could I resist the unwavering urge to more than likely be insulted, forced into hysterics and to be somewhat tastefully seduced by Nick Offerman?

I couldnt that's how and now I'm forced to shave this picturesque, more manly than nearly any man, bushy, fully in mint condition moustache that grew right under my nose as I was enchanted by these stories.

Very entertaining

Nick never fails to entertain.
Sometimes the stories are grotesque. I love the modern twists on classic stories. I hope there will be a third installment of these enjoyable stories.

Really enjoyed this

The only bad thing I have to say about it, is that there aren't enough stories.
