Book Reviews of A Guy's Guide to Being a Man's Man
Book Review: A Glib Guide to Being a Jerk's Jerk
Summary: 5 Stars
I rate this five stars for its over-the-top brashness and superficial struttiness. This is not about a man's man. The REAL men's men are guys like Clint Eastwood or Harrison Ford, not grinning geeks with plastic-gelled hair. This is the five-star guide to being a sneering stereotype of the quintessential slick-haired legend in his own mind, with big cigar, whitened teeth, and manicured nails. You could almost slap Jay Leno's photo dressed in a wiseguy's getup on the cover, and republish this book with scarcely an editorial change, classifying it as a parody of how jerks see themselves with an airhead woman hanging on one arm and a bottle of booze dangling from the other hand. If this sounds like the kind of grinning goombah you like to hang around with, hey, you'll love this book about how to be exactly this kind of grinning goombah. Then just go to Vegas and strut around, leering and laughing loudly. This book is the perfect recipe for embodying this laughable lifestyle.
