It's a great Father's Day gift. For your mother.
On Tuesday's "Tonight Show," Jimmy laid out the pros and cons of the new Fifty Shades of Grey book, simply called Grey. This one is the same story as the original, but it's told from the perspective of the boss character, Christian Grey.
There are some other books we'd like to see try this flipped-perspective idea:
The Great Gatsby from the perspective of the pool cleaner, but the pool cleaner is into fetishes. Moby-Dick from the perspective of the whale, but the whale moonlights as a dominatrix. Of Mice and Men from the perspective of actual mice, but the mice are super into S&M.

Sounds like we've got a new genre on our hands.

When someone passes out from drinking, that's not a very good thing, but at least you know where they are. When someone's really drunk and wide awake, you're not sure what they're going to do or where they might end up. All you know is that you might get stuck babysitting a grownup.

This is the person who's constantly ordering shots for everyone without asking. Yeah you don't HAVE to take them, but you feel obligated since they're being charged for them. And that also means you'll feel obligated to get them back.

This is the person who orders a bunch more than everyone, then wants to split everything evenly when the check shows up. And at the right time of night, when no one wants to do math, that person might just get their way.
