Some of these are pretty hilarious. A few are un-hilarious enough that I wondered why they made it into the book. Many of them make you think, What exactly what were they thinking? What's the story with that? These pictures don't stand head and shoulders above what you might find in a random internet search. But it's fun to have them all in one place. Jenkins does add a bit of commentary, employing a wry sense of humor and irony.
Besides being a fun little book you can keep on your coffee table or bedside to flip through for a laugh (no electricity or wi-fi needed), You Had One Job is sort of like a time capsule. Long after these web sites are shut down, after the click-bait links are dead, this book will preserve a little bit of what we laughed at in the second decade of the 21st century.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the complimentary electronic review copy!
