Facebook Freaks. Instagram Exhibitionists. These are just a few of the creatures our technology-obsessed culture has spawned in its quest to simplify our lives. The madness is so universal now that everyone has dealt with it. You log in to Facebook, read a stupid post, and immediately want to tell your \"friend\" to go have relations with himself. Sure, social media may keep us connected, but it is a breeding ground for idiots, and these idiots have crowd-sourced a storm of useless information, corny jokes, and douchebag drama that's wasting our time and screwing with our peace of mind. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Thankfully, popular comedian and television host Jim Florentine has a solution for those of us on the verge of bashing our iPhones to bits. In \u003ci\u003eEverybody Is Awful\u003c\/i\u003e, Florentine attacks awful people and awful situations with the same biting satire and cringe-worthy humor that made him famous on television shows like \u003ci\u003eCrank Yankers\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMeet the Creeps\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThat Metal Show\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Along the way, \u003ci\u003eEverybody Is Awful\u003c\/i\u003e takes readers through the author's formative years, a time filled with rebellion and horrible behavior, to the crazy early days of his career as a stand-up comedian. Florentine also recounts how he developed an obsession with pranks that morphed into his uniquely vigilante style of comedy and made him one of the most legendary prank callers of all time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Florentine excels at channeling the core rage we all feel at the seemingly small annoyances of life, and his fans love the cathartic experience of his hilarious ranting and raving, a tradition continued in \u003ci\u003eEverybody Is Awful\u003c\/i\u003e. Acting as a de facto therapist, Florentine diagnoses awful behavior, shames awful people, and offers comedic takes on how to reclaim our lives from it all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJim Florentine\u003c\/b\u003e, one of the top comedians in the nation, is a former cohost of VH1's \u003ci\u003eThat Metal Show\u003c\/i\u003e and a critically acclaimed actor, seen on \u003ci\u003eLouie\u003c\/i\u003e starring Louis C.K., \u003ci\u003eInside Amy Schumer\u003c\/i\u003e, and in Amy Schumer's hit film \u003ci\u003eTrainwreck\u003c\/i\u003e.
