A New York Times Bestseller

"Funny, subversive, and able to excavate such brutally honest sentences that you find yourself nodding your head in wonder and recognition."
--Lin-Manuel Miranda, composer and lyricist of In the Heights and Hamilton: An American Musical

Are you a sensible, universally competent individual? Are you tired of the crushing monotony of leaping gracefully from one lily pad of success to the next? Are you sick of doing everything right?

In this brutally honest and humorous debut, musician and artist George Watsky chronicles the small triumphs over humiliation that make life bearable and how he has come to accept defeat as necessary to personal progress. The essays in How to Ruin Everything range from the absurd (how he became an international ivory smuggler) to the comical (his middle-school rap battle dominance) to the revelatory (his experiences with epilepsy), yet all are delivered with the type of linguistic dexterity and self-awareness that has won Watsky devoted fans across the globe. Alternately ribald and emotionally resonant, How to Ruin Everything announces a versatile writer with a promising career ahead.

For the Back Pocket Carrier out there....
Material Type: Leather, Color: Forest Brown-4337
I think this wallet is awesome! I've been carrying for about a week and it is working out great. I usually don't carry cash but for the last week, I've actually had a little cash on me. Instead of using the clip on the back (that clip is pretty tight and I don't like the look of having cash there), I just put is under the ID flap and the magnetic closure holds it in place. I love the color, the trigger works great, and the cards are held securely even when it isn't completely full. I also like the size. It requires me to carry less, which is something I need. (I realized two weeks ago that I had been carrying an old debit card in my old wallet around that had expired in 2023 and it turned out that I didn't have an account at that bank! hahahahahaha. I must be getting old.). This is important to me: I carry a wallet in my back pocket. I always have and that is what is comfortable to me. Front pocket carry feels weird to me. I've been carrying this wallet in my back pocket and sitting on it with no issues. I'm a big guy (300 lbs) and, so far, it's held up great. In all honesty, I do take it out of my pocket and put it in my console when I drive, but that's it. Everywhere else I go, and sit, it stays in my back pocket. I know it's only been a week, but I'm glad to see that I haven't crushed it, or deformed it, or anything. Ultimately, it's been great and I'm glad I got this one.

"Stylish and Functional Guess Wallet!"
This is a fantastic wallet that combines style and practicality! The sleek black design features the iconic Quattro G monogram print on the leather (or faux-leather). It has a contrasting stripe with the "GUESS" logo on the front, giving it a modern and sophisticated edge. Despite its slim, compact silhouette, it offers great organization. It typically includes multiple card slots, slip pockets, a clear ID window, and a full-size bill compartment, providing ample space for all your essentials while keeping a flat profile in your pocket. Many customers appreciate the durable material and the high-end look without the high-end price. It often comes in a gift box, making it an ideal present for any occasion. Overall, it's a stylish and functional accessory that reflects the brand's fashionable legacy.
