Seller's Description:
New York. 2001. October 2001. Pocket Books. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0743428218. 178 pages. hardcover. keywords: Humor. FROM THE PUBLISHER-My granddaddy would get mad at all of us. He couldn't just get mad at one of us. 'Ain't nobody got. You know what? Go to bed! All y'all, go to bed! ' It'd be like two o'clock in the afternoon. 'Go to bed! 'Bernie Mac, the royal king of the Original Kings of Comedy, is salty and pissed off. The Chicago-bred performer has issues to get off his chest, and he doesn't mince words when he lets loose. No surprise, his live appearances have earned him a reputation as perhaps the truest voice of modern humor. Now, Mac has captured his comedic genius in print with his hilarious debut book. Tearing through a wide range of topics with equal parts insight and irreverence, Bernie Mac shares views that may not sit well with everyone--especially if you're caught in the crosshairs of his rants (Kids today don't get the kind of injuries we used to get as children--cut, bruised. Now, these lil' muh'fuckas just continuously get shot). Still, his way of looking at the world will probably make you think and it's all but guaranteed to make you laugh. Taking on superstar athletes, the movie business, his fellow comedians, his marriage, and his friends and family (You always knew when your grandmother was at home because her wig was on that little Styrofoam stand), Mac unleashes side-splitting riffs on sex, religion, hygiene, money, and more. Nobody is safe; nothing is sacred. Not even Bernie himself. Throughout I Ain't Scared Of You, Mac turns his humor inward, firing off self-deprecating salvos about his golf game, his own personal hypocrisies, even his sexual prowess--Women got toys. You can't compete with no dildo. Mac's insights have earned him critical acclaim andinternational popularity. Now, I Ain't Scared Of You captures Bernie Mac's humor whole--unadorned, unpretentious, and unafraid. inventory #43424.
