I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

That is the title of the book I just read.
It is a compilation of stories based on Tucker Max life. This book showed me, in a funny way, that there are people out there who live their lives different. It is fair to say, that Max is an asshole and often behaves rude and condescending to pretty much everyone who doesn’t admire him. He is very narcissistic and likes to be the center of attention. This will even get worse when he is drunk.
Average people treat other people like they want to get treated by others. Not so Tucker Max…

I thought most stories are funny and I had a hard time to put this book down. Additionally, I also thought it was interesting to see how you can be an asshole and get away with it.

Here is his description on the back of his book:
My name is Tucker Max, and I am an asshole. I get excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregard social norms, indulge every whim, ignore the consequences of my actions, mock idiots and posers, sleep with more women than is safe or reasonable, and just generally act like a raging dickhead. But, I do contribute to humanity in one very important way: I share my adventures with the world.
