  He already wrote a book. That they made into a horrible movie. And considering what a grifter he is, you have to wonder how much of it was actually true.

    Well let’s see:

    The first chapter of his book spends an insane amount of time complaining about Appalachian people taking bathroom breaks during company time, and another chapter claims he was frequently forced to urinate for his mother so she could pass drug tests, I think its a good chance whatever isn’t false is highly skewed through fox poisoning.

    The made up part: urinalysis can tell the difference between male and female urine, and the urea breaks down after about a half house (drug testing facilities almost always have you wait at least 20 minutes to circumvent cheating). So at least 1 story is unequivocally false.

    As for the Appalachian people needing too much time to poop, I doubt it is because of a lack of work ethic, but rather the opiates he suggests all of them are addicted to.

    I read it… I mistook the title for a different more scholarly work. I finished it because it is actually as good as you will get if you want to discover how children turn into sociopaths, written by an actual sociopath.

    Nah, I don’t have to wonder that at all. It’s clearly fictitious. These guys are all full of shit and it is so obvious that the only thing I have to wonder is:

    How the hell is anyone fooled by these bafoonish charlatans?

    I guess it is attributable the wizard’s first rule, but still it continues to baffle me how anyone takes them seriously.
