Do You Mind If I Cancel? Things That Still Annoy Me

內容簡介

內容簡介 爆笑影集《蓋酷家族》(Family Guy)與同志電視劇《威爾與格蕾絲》(Will & Grace)、《極品基老伴》(Vicious)編劇兼製作人Gary Janetti以爆笑又哀傷的筆調描繪日常生活的痛苦與屈辱，本書一出版便迅速登上《紐約時報》暢銷書排行。 ｢從《蓋酷家族》到他個人的IG帳戶，Janetti創作了屬於他的世代裡最棒的喜劇，這本散文集也不例外。｣ - 《紐約時報》 Gary Janetti 20出頭時有許多的理想，其中之一是成為小說家與肥皂劇演員，但在真實世界裡，他只是個飯店的打工仔，老是想著和一個遙不可及的同事上床。他記錄了在網際網路盛行前求職的痛苦，而且像我們一樣，幻想著有一天得到奧斯卡金像獎時，可以對哪些人開罵！既異想天開又厚顏無恥，讓你從頭到尾捧腹大笑。 Gary spends his twenties in New York, dreaming of starring on soap operas while in reality working at a hotel where he lusts after an unattainable colleague and battles a bellman who despises it when people actually use a bell to call him. He chronicles the torture of finding a job before the internet when you had to talk on the phone all the time, and fantasizes, as we all do, about who to tell off when he finally wins an Oscar. As Gary himself says, “These are essays from my childhood and young adulthood about things that still annoy me.” Original, brazen, and laugh out loud funny, Do You Mind if I Cancel? is something not to be missed.
