So nasty!

So I went to the thrift store the other day and came upon this gem of a book.  This has to be one of the funniest and least well-crafted book titles I’ve ever seen in my life.  For one, my brother used to constantly say the word nasty, but only in sentences like, “Ooooh! You NASTY!”, or, “That is SOoOoO NASSSSTY!” using a voice that was a mix between Tim Meadows as the Ladies Man, and Whoopi Goldberg in Sister Act.  Also, I don’t have the revised edition, which is the image of the cover here, I actually have the first printing, mine’s number 4 out of 25, and my book has a list of bulletpoints on the back that I hope everyone gets no matter what edition you buy.  The book discusses: -How nasty people think -The nasty boss -The nasty husband or wife -The typical “victim” (of nastiness, don’t forget) -What to do if you think you might be a nasty person -How to break the cycle of nastiness.  Now if those aren’t some of the most amazing things you’ve read, I just don’t if you’ll ever find anything on this page relevant.  I guess it’s just great for me because the book is sitting right next to me and I can pick it up whenever I want to and read its helpful and encouranging words.  And just for prospective purchasers of this book, I’ll also leave the review of the actual content of the book below.

Nasty People Review:

The actual content of this book sucks.  Just read the cover and the blurb on the back cover. I only recommend buying this book if you are in a thrift store and it costs 50 cents, or if you’re stuck in a dead end job in the cubicle all the way to the wall and your boss just won’t listen to you because you can’t raise your eyes to his when he’s yelling at you about page three of your last policy invoice you stupid son of a bitch.  Oh and by the way your lunch just got stolen out of the fridge by Greg down in PR. Sucka. 17%/100%
