2.5 đ¤Ąđ LMAO I love this man so much but this book did not do him any favours!!! Some highlights (greenlights?? This is a very loose interpretation of both words): his dad makes his 8 year old brother win a LITERAL pissing contest by forcing him to drink 2 beers for a dirt bike; Matthew masturbates to LORD BYRON POETRY *every* *single* night for months; his dad gives his drowned-in-the-toilet cockatiel CPR by shoving the entire wet bird in his mouth to bring it back to life and yâall it WORKS; he refers to a manâs wife, who has hairy armpits, as âHair Pitâ.
I cannot possibly describe the first 15% of this book with enough justice. He basically details what an absolute rollercoaster of life trauma heâs experienced but somehow has turned into âgreenlights.â Unclear what those are to him though - seems like his way of turning any situation around to its positive side, which on its own I love, but in its execution was so messy and at times straight up âwhat the fâ worthy because it pretty much devolves into any even semi-positive situation he happens into by chance also getting declared a âgreenlightâ. This man loves his metaphors and I love him so much for it, but in this book heâs peddling mostly nonsense that sounds like Somethingâ˘ď¸ and it made me kinda hysterical LMAO. âWhat he did not know how to make ugly, he made beautifulâ bro WHAT. This book made ME dazed and confused. *Wooderson voice* The thing I love about celebrity authors is I keep trying to enjoy them but they all stay the same.
Matty McC is straight up unhinged and this book felt like a fever dream. I well and truly love him. Also I hope to god heâs been in therapy for the last 30 years and just happens to leave that part out of the book. Itâs an extremely good thing heâs a very gifted story teller cuz man was this book a ride!!!!
