Sh*t My Dad Says

Justin Halpern’s dad is a bit of a legend, especially to his 1.5 million Twitter followers who can’t get enough of his philosophical musings. Sh*t My Dad Says is Justin’s funny, touching, coming-of-age memoir built around his dad’s sayings. By turns chaotic and hilarious, this book is one of the most honest warts and all portraits you’re likely to read of the father/son relationship. Justin’s dad isn’t just an older guy casting a weary eye over the world, he’s also “like Socrates, but angrier, and with worse hair.” Dad is more than capable of giving back as good as he gets: “You know, sometimes it’s nice having you around. But now ain’t one of those times. Now gimme the remote, we’re not watching this bullshit.” Or how about: “Happy Birthday, I didn’t get you a present…oh, mom got you one? Well, that’s from me then too – unless it’s shitty.” How’s this for an all-time zinger dinger: “Why the f**k would I want to live to be 100? I’m 73 and shit’s starting to get boring. By the way, there’s no money left when I go, just fyi.” No doubt about it, Halpern senior is one hell of a guy!
