News: The Alphabet of Manliness


The Alphabet of Manliness by Maddox was published recently and I am tempted to thumb through it. It is "an illustrated, X-rated, politically incorrect guide to urinal etiquette, female anatomy and obedient wives" (USA Today) and one of those books that will most likely be discussed within the bar scene for the next year. Maddox is the webmaster of thebestpageintheuniverse.com which he started in 1997 with a list of things that "pissed him off."

The book's publisher states "Finally, a book that guarantees your balls will be stomped; a book so manly that it will make even the burliest of men (and in some cases, the burliest of women) feel inadequate. So manly, it needs to be shaved: The Alphabet of Manliness. This collection of sacred writings may very well be the greatest compilation of all things manly throughout history."

Chances are I will laugh at how stupid this book is instead of wasting my time and energy critiquing it.
