The subtle art of not giving a f*ck pisses me off every fucking time I see it. If you didn't give a fuck, you would spell out fuck like an adult.
Maybe they did spell it out, the publisher changed it, and the author didn’t give a fuck?
Nah, aliens.
A former boss bought me a copy of that book as a Christmas gift (instead of giving out bonuses). It took everything I had to not say "Wow, you really don't know me at all."
Use a sharpie to change the title to "the subtle art of not giving a fuck at work" and keep it on your desk
Nah, I asked for a reasonable salary increase and quit when it was denied.
And not like those fucking teenagers who are notorious for self-censorship 😆
Oh no the fuck word
Have you even read it?
I haven't because I don't give a fuck about it
Oh honey, your ignorance is showing. Don’t comment on books you haven’t read.
Did ye miss the joke?
Ha! I did, my apologies.
no but the cover is all I need to judge it
I started it, and it's bad. I must've read 25 pages.
It's very poorly written, it reads like it was written by someone who only speaks English as a second language, or a teenager. With an added layer of trying to sound deep and wise.
Whatever substance there might be in there was destroyed by who terrible it was to read.
Isn't it some blog post that was edited into a book?
something something a book by its cover.
Glad to see ignorance is alive and well
It is indeed.
No. Why would I give a fuck about a book that proves with its title that it doesn't know shit about the subject of the book? That'd be like buying "every way to cook a steak: 500 recipes for microwaving filet mignon"
So you just like being ignorant then.
I have, and it was basically a curse-word ridden version of another book that was published around the same time. The "unfucked" version was better IMO, but I don't remember what it was called. I guess gimmicks really do help a book succeed.
I have as well, and Mark Manson is a really intelligent writer. That book is still on the shelves for a reason.
Everyone uses gimmicks.
Eh not everyone uses gimmicks.
Maybe you're thinking of "Let Them" by Mel Robbins? It's newer but a more positive way to say the same thing.
I don't think so. There was a book where the author looked at basically the same groups of people (stoics, buddhists, etc.) but it didn't have the same buzzy title. I think I loaded both onto my Kindle from pdf so now I can't find a reference to either. Oh well.
