Looking for authors of satire, such as Kurt Vonnegut?

Since I found the works of Vonnegut last summer I've been reading all of his books and am now, sadly, on the last of them. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations of authors/books I would probably enjoy reading if I liked Vonnegut's books?
 
There's no one like Kurt but you can try reading Catch-22, Johnny Got His Gun, Ray Bradbury, Miranda July... there's plenty.
 
I agree, there is no one quite like Vonnegut, but I'd check out
-Chuck Palahniuk
-Bret Easton Ellis
-Anthony Burgess
-Irvine Welsh
I really love Kurt's works and have found that these authors were fairly similar in writing style. My favorites would be Chuck and Irvine. They are positively dry and wicked. Hope you find something you enjoy!
 
Chuck Palahniuk is one of the best, Joseph Heller is good, Douglas Adams, Tim O'Brien, Christopher Moore, and Anthony Burgess.

All very good writers with writing styles somewhat similer to Kurt Vonnegut.
