Everything Is Awful And Other Observations

Binding: Paperback
Description: From the break - out star of Buzz Feed comes a collection of hilariously anguished essays chronicling awful and humiliating moments from his life so far proving the mantra of his life and career: being a human is hard work so you may as well make your story funny when you can (Bustle). Matt Bellassai has no idea what he's doing. Well to be fair he did become semi - Internet famous by getting drunk at work making him a socially acceptable nay professional alcoholic. He's got some things figured out. But the rest is all just a terrible disgusting mess. This is Matt's book. Just to clarify though it is absolutely not a memoir; Matt is far too young to have done anything worth remembering (though he did win an actual People's Choice Award for his Buzz Feed web series Whine About It which is pretty good if you ask his mother). This is also most certainly not a book of advice; he is too woefully ill - prepared for life to offer anything in the way of counsel. Call this a collection of awful moments that led to his grumbling blundering adulthood a chronicle of little indignities that when taken together amount to a life of hilarious anguish. With keen wit and plenty of self - deprecation Matt reveals how hard it is to shed his past as the Midwest's biggest nerd and how he came out to his friends and family (the closet was a bit messy). Matt also wrestles with the humiliations of adulthood like giving up on love in New York City and combating the inner voice that tells him to say aloud all the things the rest of us are smart enough to keep to ourselves. You probably don t need this book but let's be honest you do. Since you re already reading you might as well pull up a chair grab your glass(es) of wine and enjoy.
