"I think I bit off more than I can chew."

Started reading this book about a month ago, and think it might have done something to me. I've started noticing myself grow increasingly irritated at minor fashion faux-pas that previously never phased me: youth wearing a billed cap in reverse, side on, or reversed fashion send me into a twitching barely controlled rage; loose jeans are now cause for me to mutter invective under my breath. I even caught myself yelling at the newspaper delivery boy when he accidentally stepped on my grass verge in the course of his deliveries.

Now if you'll excuse me, there's a cloud I have to shake my fist at.

Description

A collection of short pieces on topics dear to Paul Henry's heart – some outrage him, some will outrage you, and others will outrage everybody. A smattering of sample topics: tipping; political zealots of all persuasion; dog owners; people who just stop at the top of escalators; roadwork signs that haven't been put away; closed-minded people; queueing; people who steal the magic from children's eyes; rubbish on the street; surcharges; children on planes; Twitter; wine served too cold; lights left on when no one's in the room PLUS much more. There are even terrific pieces on things Paul loves such as baseball; Las Vegas; nudity; road trips; boats; and knowing he's right. Written with the same flair, comic genius and deadpan delivery as his first bestselling book What Was I Thinking this is an excellent read that'll leave you chuckling, even if you disapprove of much of the content.
