It's by Tucker Max. Here is the Amazon.com description


Book 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 you—for 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 don’t believe in God anymore. No just God would allow someone like you to exist."

"I’ll 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. You’re 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."

About the Author
Tucker Max received his B.A. from the University of Chicago, where he graduated in 1998. He attended Duke Law School on an academic scholarship, where he graduated with a J.D. in 2001 (despite the fact that he neglected to buy any of his textbooks for his final two years and spent part of one semester—while still enrolled in classes—living in Cancun). Tucker is purportedly the reason Duke dropped from 7 to 11 in the USN&WR rankings during his tenure. He currently lives in Chicago, and when he isn't drinking or fornicating, he writes for his website.

You think he's honest? I'm pretty sure a lot of this stuff is completely made up. I read the book and I was actually angry after because I like I had been taken.

seanw1010

he sounds like a douche
and he says he doesnt like fake people, he probally is

HatredThrownDown

this book is hysterical. i read it about a year ago. Tucker Max is insane. Must read just for a laugh

booomm11

"If u slept with my girfriend, it'd make me love her more" haha that's hilarious

iamsampj

this guy is a complete ass...but i found myself laughing out loud even though i think how he treats girls is ridiculous. though he does preface every asshole story with "i'm not like this anymore. this was when i was much younger." :rolleyes: the chapter about his dare to sleep with a fat girl was mind boggling, and then the model in miami...holy crap (literally) that was insane!! i just can't see how so many crazy things can happen to one person. it's appaling and hilarious at the same time.

That model story is not believable at all. He went on Opie and Anthony and told that story, and O&A just made fun of him.

i know! just waaayy too much happening at once. i'm sure there are more in there too that are just as unbelievable, but i only read a little bit. i had to read for myself why this book is one of my company's best selling books for the past 2 years. i had to read it at borders...my staff would've killed me if i read it in the store.

I had never heard of this guy until last week when Gawker started going after him. He has some of his stories on his website, http://www.tuckermax.com/
I read the sushi one and he seems like an ass.

i found the book at he Dallas Airport book store... I turned it around to see what it was about and the first words on the back cover are: "My name is Tucker Max and I am an Asshole". How in the hell do you not buy that book to find out why!!???

it was by far the best book i read all year... i have recommended it to many and lent out my copy...it is an absolute riot of a book... you will double over laughing.....

ENJOY!!!!

I guarantee you this guy was a total nobody who couldn't even get into Sigma Chi- and just observed enough so that he could fill in the blanks in his head. Even the biggest asshole I know does not have stories anywhere near the level of this guy... and I know some real f'ing idiot fratboys.

That said.
The fact that this book is a bestseller is so annoying. Let's just promote misogyny and violence against women while we're at it. Grr.

There is no possible way he can make a 2d book as good as his first book, and everyone (i.e., his publisher) knows it.

I promise you if that book ever makes it out & you do buy it, less than halfway through you'll be like "eh. First one was better."
