As contemporary poets sing the glories of birds, birch trees, and
|
|
|
|
|
menstruation, regular guys are left scratching their heads. Who can speak for

Don't let the title fool you: It may sound like a book with bro-dude stuff,
|
|
|
|
|
like women being bitches, the parties all nights to get bitches and so on, but
|
|
|
|
|
there is none of this here.

|
|
|
|
recommend the one that describes a whole life in 3 or so pages using only
|
|
|
|
|
movie titles.
