title

If you hate: loft living; bar-clubs; Tony Blair; chick lit; global warming sceptics; Keane; loyalty cards; IKEA; Kabbalah; bling and Richard Curtis...

... then you need IS IT JUST ME OR IS EVERYTHING SHIT? - an encylopedic attack on modern culture and the standard reference work for everyone who believes everything is shit. Which it is. This book is for the large percentage of the population interested in saying NO to the phoney ideas, cretinous people, useless products and doublespeak that increasingly dominate our lives. This book is designed for everyone who thinks they may have mislaid their soul in a Coffee Republic. Never before has there been a book so completely full of shit.

This very funny, well-informed, belligerent rant of a book adds up to an excoriating broadside against consumer capitalism that the authors hope will sell loads of copies.

Reviews

• 'One of the many things that irritates these guys is rave reviews: so I'll just say it's very funny and recommend you to buy it. Unless of course you're a big fan of the Daily Mail' Stewart Prebble, author of Grumpy Old Men

簡體書出版社：京華出版社 2009/2006

作者: （英）洛 / （英）麦克阿瑟
译者: 董立方
全新出版的《第二坨「狗屎」》是《這就是「狗屎」》的姊妹篇，從內容上來講，前者比後者信息量更大、更值得關注；批判的方式更尖銳、更滑稽；描述的內容更粗俗、更糟糕……是對後者的有力補充，兩者合在一起為讀者提供現代生活中「狗屎」的參考標準。
涉及的內容主要包括：減肥蘋果，廚師的家庭，知名感冒藥Lemsip，大衛·卡梅倫，午餐時間隆胸，火車上的超級公共廁所，足球專家，康沃爾人的民族主義，排毒襪子，雄鹿周，「狗屎」電影的「狗屎」原聲帶，飯店服務費以及名叫」大衛」的政客們。
喜歡《這就是「狗屎」》的讀者一定會更加喜歡《第二坨「狗屎」》，而不喜歡《這就是「狗屎」》的讀者也會發現《第二坨「狗屎」》其實也挺搞笑，而且有助於增長見識。
