I don't like books that make me feel bad or horribly bored. The stories in here are all obnoxious humans, none with names, just "the mother, the depressed person, the father" etc, so you don't even have characters to dislike.
Despite the title, these stories are anything but brief. Most...no, all the stories, were tedious to read. They are just pages and pages and pages, sometimes saying almost the same thing and not furthering the story, or are long and rambling going off in different directions and hard to follow.
Why not one star, then? I don't really know. My best answer to why I gave this 2 stars is because I think the author did what he set out to do, which is point out horrible humanity. Since he seemed to have his own point and agenda, I can't give it 1 star for not even being a book. I'll give it 2 stars, but grudgingly.
