Summary: Very true
Review: A complete anthropoligical study of the contemporary bachelor. More than a bible, rather a rule book. It manages all that is necessary to convey the truth behind 'guy living'. Lots of fun.

Summary: Scathingly Funny
Review: Although Mr. O'Roarke usually writes from a conservative perspective, this book can be read by anyone. The pictures are even funnier than the text. The only complaint I had was that it was too short.

Summary: Rings too true, needs to be longer
Review: I am petulantly withholding a 5 star rating on this little work of humor, well, because it's a little work. There. Why didn't he make it longer, dammit? You must buy this. Anyone who's been a bachelor understands viscerally "Decorating with Alcohol".

Summary: Typical O'Rourke- hilarious and true
Review: I have read all of his books, but this one is among my favorites. As a college student myself, the book hits home. Incedentally, in one part he explains how "a quick burst of Right Guard can return a pair of socks to active duty." I've tried this. It really works.

Summary: The funniest book I have ever read.
Review: I wouldn't know a well crafted piece of literary excellence from a mediocre load of ol' garbage but I know a funny book when I read one and they don't come any funnier than this one

Summary: Hands down one of his best!
Review: I've been on a tear of P.J. O'Rourke's books lately, starting with Republican Party Reptile and so forth. This is by far one of P.J.'s best. I'm on the other side of the coin politically (fairly liberal) myself, but P.J. usually spares no one, and I admire that (Rush and his wacko friends could learn a thing or two). This book is just about how to get by if you're a bachelor. It's incredibly funny for the most part (the cooking sections should not be read if you've just ate!). This is a fantastic little book, very helpful if you plan to live like a slob or like a typical college freshman.

Summary: A MUST for any Bachelor Home
Review: If you are a bachelor or know someone who is, this book is a MUST. P.J. O'Rourke (who has subtitled other books as "Eyewitness Accounts of Mankind's Struggle Against Tyranny, Injustice, and Alcohol-Free Beer" for example) launches into how to keep a bachelor pad bachelory, including cooking, cleaning, yardwork, and decorating. The book is even illustrated with photographs, and the irrepressible P.J. in his trademark shirt and tie will have you in stitches, like the one where P.J. explains how to clean the kitchen by putting all the dirty dishes, pots, and pans on the floor, and then cleaning them with a garden hose; or for dinner, put 5 pounds of popcorn kernels in the oven, turn it to 450 degrees, and you're done.
