Corey Taylor has had it. Had it with the vagaries of human behaviour and life in this postmodern digital blanked-out waiting room that passes for a world. Reality TV, awful music, terrible drivers, megamalls, airports, family reunions, bad fashion choices, other people's monstrous children, and badly-behaved "adult" human beings are warping life in the twenty-first century into an often-unbearable endurance test of one's patience, fortitude, and faith. Funny, profane, blasphemous, and above all right on target, You're Making Me Hate You is pure Corey Taylor unleashed, exposing the underbelly of human depravity in all its ragged glory.

Taylor s third book takes a critical and shameless look at the state of societyThe selling point here is his grouchy, comedic take on the human condition, but the real depth comes from Taylor s keen awareness and humanity. While nobody can be the authority on people watching, in his detail Taylor comes very close. his power comes from his wicked smarts and observational skills he calls, anthropological research . "You re Making Me Hate You" is a fun read

Taylor is known for fronting the bands Slipknot and Stone Sour, but in his books he gives fans a more intimate look at his personality, which differs (mostly) from his aggressive stage persona Taylor does a good job of balancing his social critique with meaningful self-evaluation in this book this isn t just an entire book of complaining. Taylor also makes a point to impart some of his wisdom with advice on how to live through some of the irking situations he mentioned Taylor s tone carries a hint of smartass without overdoing it and is mostly lighthearted, though it s still guided by a grim outlook on humanity.

An in depth look at just how stupid people can be. The book radiates hate and anger in the most brilliant way possiblewith humor. That s right, not only is Taylor angry, he s funny.
