Jason Kaplan Boeken

A handy and humorous compendium of all things that rank high and low on the scale of suckitude, this book covers everything from your driver's license photo to locking yourself out and stubbing your toe. Life's problems are best viewed not by what has gone wrong, but by what could go wrong. When you can't escape Murphy's law, find solace in the witty observations of humorist Jason Kaplan. From getting dumped and having no one to kiss on New Year's Eve to the nightly news, frivolous lawsuits, and even mosquitoes, the text flows with unpleasantries that rank high and low on the Kaplan scale of suckage. Lauded by *New York Magazine* as "surprisingly perceptive," it highlights examples such as the morning commute, overly perky people, and the kid kicking the back of your seat. Think of this book as company for your misery or an intriguing way to understand the complex world we've created and how it often lets us down. Whether you've experienced schadenfreude or simply had a no-good, very bad day, take comfort in Kaplan's insights and realize that things aren't so dreadful after all.
