ADULTING IS A SCAM
A Sarcastic Guide to Life, Chaos, and Actually Knowing Yourself
Nobody wakes up fully healed. They just get tired of performing the alternative - and start laughing on the way out.
You inherited a script: good grades, a job you tolerate, a house you can't afford, a spouse before the relatives start a betting pool. Nobody asked if you wanted a different genre.
This book calls it. Anxiety, therapy, boundaries, getting fired, being canceled, 3 AM spirals - nothing sacred, nothing sugarcoated. No seven-step formula, because the author doesn't have one. Just the truth, delivered with a whoopee cushion instead of a TED Talk.
Funny because honesty goes down easier that way. Read it in order, or don't - just start wherever your week is currently on fire.
