Product Description 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. from the Introduction Actual reader feedback: "I am completely baffled as to how you can congratulate yourself for being a womanizer and a raging drunk, or think anyone cares about an idiot like you. Do you really think that exploiting the insecurities of others while getting wasted is a legitimate thing to offer?" "Thank you, thank you, thank youfor sharing with us your wonderful tales of drunken revelry, for teaching me what it means to be a man, for just existing so I know that there is another option; I too can say screw the system and be myself and have fun. My life truly began when I finished reading your stories. Now, when faced with a quandary about what course of action I should take, I just ask myself, What Would Tucker Do?and I do it, and I am a better man for it." "I find it truly appalling that there are people in the world like you. You are a disgusting, vile, repulsive, repugnant, foul creature. Because of you, I dont believe in God anymore. No just God would allow someone like you to exist." "Ill stay with God as my lord, but you are my savior. I just finished reading your brilliant stories, and I laughed so hard I almost vomited. I want to bring that kind of joy to people. Youre an artist of the highest order and a true humanitarian to boot. I'm in both shock and awe at how much I want to be you." "You are the coolest person I can even imagine existing. If you slept with my girlfriend, it'd make me love her more."

Downright hilarious December 1, 2008 Stuck in an airport with a flight delay, I ventured to the bookstore to pick up a book for my husband and myself. The gloom and doom of my chosen book was forgotten due to the overwhelming guffaws coming from my husband. I have never heard him laugh so hard. This book, my friends, is just funny. Needless to say, Tucker Max is raunchy, disgusting and an egomaniac, but at the same time you get this feeling that he is superhuman, that he is untouchable and almost godlike. His stories will have you rolling in the aisle, literally!
For What It Is Worth. . . November 29, 2008 Honestly, for what this book is supposed to be, it does the job almost perfectly. It's a bunch of stories - one almost more insane and unbelievable than the last - of a young man's exploits. Plain and simple.
Trust me, I was at first surprised to even be buying the book, let alone reading it, and lastly to find myself enjoying it. I was. But I'd be lying if I didn't say I got quite a bit of enjoyment from it. Quick easy stories, if you have a strong stomach and remember to take it all with a grain of salt.
Do I think it all really happened? Yes, I actually do. Do I think it all sounds a heck of a lot better after writing, re-writing, editing, and re-editing? Absolutely. The way the book is written makes it enjoyable. The stories alone wouldn't make for a great book. But the way they are told does.
In the end I will take two things away from this book. One - people like Tucker Max do exist and that I, personally, would rather just read stories about people like him than actually be friends with them. Two - girls like those that appear in Tucker's book, they exist too. So I guess overall I'm just relieved that those two types of people exist in this world to compliment each other. And if the rest of us can get a laugh or two out of it, then that's fine with me.
I Hear Enough Drinking Stories in Real Life November 29, 2008 If you like reading about drunk people vomiting out their noses, this book is for you. I did not find anything redeemable about it. There is nothing lovable or interesting about these drunks.
I hope they make you read this book in hell... November 28, 2008 Drunken frat boy scatology mixed with voracious sexual conquest..
A few good laughs.
Not for the squeamish!
Most people don't get it November 28, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Most people don't understand this book. Yes, it has stories about getting drunk and fornicating. But that is a very small part of what Tucker is about. This book is about living the life YOU choose, not some pre-determined 'right' life laid out for you by others. It is about having the courage to find your own path in life, whatever you want it to be. This book has been a great inspiration for me. I highly recommend checking out Tucker's website for a more in-depth look into the lifestyle Tucker tells us we can all have, we just have to choose it.
