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."

 Perplexing January 8, 2009
I do not know exactly how to review this book. First of all I initially confiscated this book from one of my High School students. When I read it I laughed and then I started to feel embarrassed. Now, I am no Saint, and I have a warped and filthy mind. However this book made me blush. Then I got to thinking, how my teenage female student was reading this and then the guys were reading and laughing like Beavis and Butthead. When I got home I held my daughter in my arms and realized the horror. Now as I sit here and contemplate this book I think to myself, is this for real? Did this guy in fact do all these things? They seem to be awfully outlandish and I am questioning the validity of his "stories". In fact I had buddy that had a "girlfriend" that had sex with him whenever he wanted, was loaded, older than he, and did not want a committed relationship. Yet none of us ever met her and he has NEVER had a visible girlfriend. Men are great liars when it comes to our bedroom follies. Read at your own risk and judge for yourself, but do not let your teenagers read it, for the love of God, they are frisky enough.
 Great book. January 4, 2009

Just finished the book and laughed my head off. The wife does not understand for sure. Looking forward to the next book and the movie.

While I appreciate his humor, a whole collection didn't do it for me. It could have been one fourth this size and been just the right amount.
I thoroughly enjoyed the one about the fat girl, because I am just that. But I also was bored during many of the long stories about getting in fights and being drunk.
Too much of a good thing is clearly, too much.
Shameless debauchery at its finest. December 28, 2008

In no way is this book particularly enlightening, but the memoir is undeniably hilarious. The consistent shock value within highly segmented prose makes this a weightless read; good luck walking away from it, unless it's to wipe your eyes.

Tucker Max's account of his life reads more like all those jokes and stories you hear that are shortly followed by "you had to be there" or "it would be funnier if you had been there." The various stories seem more like well described inside jokes.
I thought I would really enjoy this book, but unfortunately I was ultimately disappointed. While outrageous, his stories were really not that engaging or interesting. The first half of the book was truly juvenile with not a lot of substance or worthwhile stories. I love stories about jerks and unworldly encounters, but Max's presentation or lack of organization in his delivery is unsettling.
The stories improve in the last half of the book. However, there is only so many stories about how drunk someone got, how many women someone slept with, etc. I can stand in 300 pages. This book seems like it could be written by someone in high school who likes talking about how wasted he got over the weekend (which I suppose is ultimately the point).
Do not get me wrong, there are some great moments of recollected dialogue and verbal exchanges; but, ultimately, they are too few and far between to enjoy this book. If you like reading outrageous stories about booze and women, I recommend this book to you. Otherwise, it is not worth it.
