Synopsis

Just being a man was never more fraught with confusion and peril. Derived from Esquire's popular feature, this men's manual to life in the 21st century offers more than 500 rules that make for lightearted reading and manly musings. Accompanied by wry black and white illustrations on each page, the rules are guaranteed to set a man straight. Here is entertainment to live by: Rule number 28: If there is danger involved, it is fun. Rule number 288: "Irregardless" is not a word, irregardless of what you say. Rule number 71: The best blind dates are with girls named Kelly or Samantha. Rule number 112: You cut the fat, you cut the flavor. Rule number 117: No movie should have its title incorporated into the dialogue. Rule number 198: When it comes to luggage, men don't pull. Rule number 243: Slow-motion violence goes best with Mahler. Rule number 289: The people who elect to perform karaoke are never the people you wish to perform karaoke. Rule number 311: A man should avoid using the phrase "assume the position" on the first date. Rule number 317: No straws.

About this title

About the Author

"Esquire is special because it's a magazine for men. Not a fashion magazine for men, not a health magazine for men, not a money magazine for men. It is not any of these things; it is all of them. It is, and has been for nearly seventy years, a magazine about the interests, the curiosity, the passions, of men." David Granger - Editor in Chief.
