In his second book, humorist and life critic Sam Neumann employs his unique brand of snark to make sense of - and yes, make fun of - the absurdities of everyday life. From personal tales about vacationing in Branson, Missouri, to the difference between good and bad fat people, this collection of short essays and blog posts is at once hysterical and thought-provoking.Believed to be the first book to analyze automated phone systems, Bob Ross, obligatory Facebook comments, and the stages of dog love, Quitting Cold Stone (And Other Struggles) is Neumann's manifesto of everything that is right and wrong with the world. With the balls to take on Audi of America and the audacity to defend Nickelback, Quitting Cold Stone brazenly barges uninvited into most every realm of modern society, and does not leave a tip. You may feel the same about the topics at hand; you may feel differently. You may feel the author is a complete moron. But rest assured, while reading this book, you will feel something.AUTHOR'S NOTE: This book contains profanity. It's a general examination of civilization and human nature, and sometimes these things are easier (and more fun) to talk about when you use bad words. If the presence of a little colorful language is likely to ruin your reading experience, it's probably best to pass on this one. We can still be friends though.
