I love Denis Leary's blunt and to the point approach.....Imagine what the world would be like if everyone was just that honest!!!! We all think it and he just had the balls to say it!!! ( )

I really wanted to like this book. I wanted something to make me laugh and I have a warped sense of humor and am not easily offended. This BOOK sucked. I think I chuckled two times in the entire book. He not only wasn't funny but showed mysoginy at its worst. ( )

This was a great book. Leary blends memoir and rant quite well. Sure, it has a part or two where the pace slow downs a bit, but when he is hot, he is really cooking. No one is safe from his observations and direct approach. What I like about him, like other comedians I like (Lewis Black, George Carlin), is that he will make you laugh, but then you think and realize he is speaking the truth, a truth that few hear. I am not spoiling the end, but I will say he does leave us with some hope. Overall, a very entertaining read. I made some notes in my updates about passages I liked. ( )

I have never, ever been a fan of Denis Leary. Ever. But I saw him talking about this book on the Daily Show and decided to give it a try. To my surprise, it wasn't bad.
I didn't really learn anything and wouldn't read it again, but still, not a bad book. ( )

funny quick read ( )
