The most ordinary life can be compelling when you are a miserable sod with a bizarre world view. Especially when you have close brushes with some of the most impactful global events of the last few decades. This collection of diary entries is both delightful and perplexing as we see the world of the author from birth to death as he unwittingly offends, ponders and attempts to make sense of the idiots that surround him. At moments he is unwittingly sweet as his journey into adulthood sees his high aspirations falling short and he begins to learn to appreciate what he has rather than long for what he desires. This secret account of the author's inner-most thoughts becomes living proof that even a dickhead can be loveable.
