Everyone You Hate is Going to Die: And Other Comforting Thoughts on Family, Friends, Sex, Love, and More Things That Ruin Your Life

Product Information

One might question, why do I love Daniel Sloss this much? Genius comedian: to make you laugh but then after a few days you find yourself still thinking about his analogies and jokes because some shit he said was more than laughs. (JK It's the dark humor...) Honestly, my huge respect for Daniel Sloss comes from his Show X, which made me laugh my ass off and then cry myself to sleep. Touring the show more than 300 times in a span of a year to make sure the message gets out there is something that I appreciate dearly. But then I watched his other shows and it was my first time seeing someone using the same dark jokes and being honest about his shitty thoughts and that allowed me to be more true to myself I think. It's hardly surprising that it's seamless as Sloss has plundered his shows as a rich content seam here – particularly Jigsaw, Dark, and X. No bad thing considering the acclaim and thought that went into each of them, as well as the hot topics that continue to be relevant. One of this generation's hottest and boldest young comedians presents a transgressive and hilarious analysis of all of our dysfunctional relationships, and attempts to point us in the vague direction of sanity.

It's a funny book and I'd definitely read another one from him - even if that, in his own words, makes me an idiot... Secondly, This book technically comes under self-help genre and honestly I am not a big fan of the genre and this is gonna be the only book I would read in this genre (unless Sloss or Gervais or Jeselnik wrote a book). reading Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die: And Other Comforting Thoughts on Family, Friends, Sex, Love, and More Things That Ruin Your Life In the first book from one of this generation's hottest and boldest young comedians, Daniel Sloss presents a transgressive and hilarious analysis of all of our dysfunctional relationships, and attempts to point us in the vague direction of sanity.

Everyone You Hate Is Going to Die: And Other Comforting Thoughts on Family, Friends, Sex, Love, and More Things That Ruin Your Life full book I mean, seriously, y'all--I was snorking laughing. If I were one to guffaw, I would've been guffawing. As with most comedians who try their hands at book-writing, it's pretty clear that this is not the medium or format for him. I laughed out loud many a time, but just about every single joke would have been better in the stand-up format. I don't think Sloss would disagree with me. That said, he is not an author... This book is a regurgitation of what he said in all of his specials - only more detailed and with less jokes. On top of that the book is tiresomely meta, where he talks on and on about his editors letting him put dirty words in and us the readers giving him our money for this attempt at a book (as he puts it). Then there are all the pauses to explain Scottish slang to Americans - what bugs me about this is that he always points out the explanation is specifically for Americans, as if other nations either know Scottish culture perfectly, don't read his book or don't matter. The main vibe he gives off is the third option although most likely it is the second.Loneliness is like most things in the world: You have to practice it to get good at it. Sometimes being alone is utter bliss. Once you get used to being alone, relationships really have to go out of their way to interest you. If you want to be in a relationship with me, you have to be better than being single."

Everyone You Hate is Going to Die by Daniel Sloss - Waterstones

But there’s also some cringey stuff in here, and worse, some unfocused stuff. I think it could have used a bit more editing, perhaps been about a third shorter – the chapters about his toxic relationship is particularly painful, because he just rants in an angry way without giving many specifics, so there’s not a lot to grab onto.He does remind us that the book only contains his opinions, but i think he still has a lot of work to do to express these without sounding condescending or all-knowing (I'm talking here of course about the parts where he is serious, not when he is obviously sarcastic). Again this comes down to not being a writer - I find the one-hour special the perfect format for him to get his message across with a perfect delivery, but this train-of-thought no ending essay format is too much for him, I find.
