Where We Won't Be: Tucker Max's book reading in Wynnewood
 |
Another reason to hate Max: Doing this |
I understand why Tucker Max hit it big on the Internet. That's where hateful, base speech like his flourishes — read any forum discussion, and you'll see a million Tucker Maxes talking about how stupid women are and how cool butt sex is. In that way, Tucker Max is the Joe Sixpack of the Internet. He's commonplace. Almost normative and boring, even.
But now Max has left the Internet and entered your local, cozy bookstore. He'll be reading from his book, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, at Wynewood's Borders (80 E. Wynnewood Road) at 6 p.m. tonight. You shouldn't go. Or better yet, you should go and heckle him. Let's review why:
He filmed himself having sex with a woman without telling her:
This was going to be my first time foraging in the ass forest, and I wanted to have a reminder of my trip, a memento I could carry with me the rest of my life...so I decided to film us.
I planned this beforehand, but I was afraid she would decline, so instead of being mature and discussing this with Jaime, I just made the executive decision to get it on camera...without telling her.
That alone is pretty bad. But instead of just setting up a hidden camera...I got my friend to hide in my closet and film it.
He preys on people who are emotionally damaged. And gets off on it:
So let's see...beautiful girl, been judged on her beauty all her life, depressed about being rejected from her life goal, completely lost her focus...does anyone else see where this is going?
He's written about more despicable things, but I don't want to dirty up the Clog with too much Tucker Max. Basically, he's the worst human alive. And he knows it:
My name is Tucker Max, and I am an asshole.
I get excessively drunk at inappropriate times, disregard social norms, indulge every whim, ignore the consequences of my actions, mock idiots and posers, sleep with more women than is safe or reasonable, and just generally act like a raging dickhead.
Yep, he's an asshole's asshole. The kind that knows he's atrocious, and is proud of it. I hope that a rich helicopter Mom from Wynnewood overhears his reading in Borders and sues him for emotionally damaging her child. Or just vomits on him. I hear he's touchy about that.
