Product Description
Greasy foreheads. Spiky frosted hair. Oiled-up faces dripping with Tag Body Shot spray. Armani Exchange T-shirts and rank cologne wafting off their backs like fetid pollen clouds as they pump their fists and attempt to grind into any hotties nearby. Young beauties oblivious to the hulking monstrosity clutching at their butts like snapping turtles on Red Bull.From sea to douchey sea, ours is a culture plagued by this festering blight. By the dark forces of ueber-douchebaggery. How did this happen? What can we do to confront the douchebag/hottie plague that rots our collective souls like boils sent by a wrathful and angry God? And how can you recover if you or your loved one is 'bag? Now, for the first time, there is an answer to those questions that haunt our collective will and sap our culture of any claim to societal advance: Why hottie/douchebaggery? Why now? And why are douche-faces so silly? In this book we dissect, analyze, contemplate and mock the rank douchescrotes that pollute our country's hottie supply on a daily basis. Every branch of the douche-tree will be examined. Every corner of our cultural rot will be exposed. And if we can lust after their hotties along the way, then all the better.

 Hilarious, well-written and intelligent! August 21, 2008

I have to admit that when I heard this book was coming out, I had my doubts about the quality. I was a big fan of the site, but honestly, what could the author add to the pictures that were already available online?
This volume, however, was a very pleasant surprise, and let me assure you that yes, it is well worth buying, even (or especially?) if you are a fan of the site.
The author weaves a funny yet quite insightful and intelligent narrative throughout this text, and while there is plenty of humor, there are a number of astute sociological observations that give it added depth. Make no mistake, this is not a scholarly work, but the elegant and polished prose with which the author presents an admittedly low-brow subject is refreshing. And hey, he mentions Lacan!
The pictures are, of course, the main draw here, and they do not disappoint. The wide variety of subjects is as hilarious as it is depressing, and is very well organized and presented. Definitely a worthy read!
 Fan of the website? Then you will enjoy the book. August 3, 2008

I try to spread the gospel of www.hotchickswithdouchebags.com (the author's website) as much as possible. The book is hilarious, but also seeks to educate the reader on a disturbing trend in America and the world. Namely the transformation of men into douchebags in their quest to obtain the hotties. At only around $12 on Amazon it makes a great coffee book and conversation piece, plus its highly entertaining.

Buy it, for the children. Before, in the words of Neville Chamberlain, we have "grease in our time".
Do it for the children.
And one-star guy can felate a mailbox.

I totally disagree with the One Star comment. The fact you can get much of the material for free on his site (and goes the commenter's point, why spend money on the book) is irrelevant. I love the site and even if the book contained nothing but material already there, i'd still buy it to support the author.
however the book is chock full of stuff not on the site. There's a great narrative throughout which shows his walk through searching for his inner douche. His insights are dead on and face it, pretty much every guy on earth has found himself scratching his head in amazement at this phenomenon.
The book catagories each douche and offers brilliant and biting insight in the process. The pictures of the Hotts are superb and showing them on the glossy paper is a great touch. I can't think of a better Coffee Table book to have - so I guess that makes me a douche according to some of the commenters. Well, if that makes me one, I'm proud of it.
 Douchebags? July 10, 2008

So this guy has people send him pictures on the internets, makes snarky comments about the people in said pictures. You can look at the pics and read his comments for free in the internets. So he decides to make a coffee table collection and sells the stuff you can get for free, and you people buy it? Gee, I wonder who the douchebags really are?
