Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Are you exhausted by excuses? You're not alone. You Are NOT Excused is the sharp, funny, and refreshingly honest essay collection that tackles everything wrong with modern American culture and dares to suggest we can do better.What happens when a society stops expecting anything from itself?In more than thirty bite-sized essays organized across four sections -- culture, etiquette, work ethic, and politics -- Gen X author SuzAnne Driscoll delivers the kind of commonsense commentary that cuts through social media noise and hits its target every time. No rage. No lectures. No participation trophies.Inside this book you will find (among other things): A sharp look at victimhood culture, identity politics, and the two words she wants erased from the vocabulary entirely;A masterclass in modern etiquette featuring airports, hotel laundromats, and very loud car stereos;Lessons on work ethic drawn from Ferris Bueller, Olive Garden, and a landscaper who almost tanked a million-dollar home sale;A calm, witty take on free speech, free lunches, and what free really costs; andAn honest conversation about privilege, politics, and what it actually means to be American.Perfect for readers who enjoy social commentary with a sense of humor.Driscoll writes the way your smartest, funniest friend talks: direct, self-aware, occasionally fired up, and always willing to turn the same critical eye on herself that she turns on the culture around her. These essays are short enough to read on a lunch break and substantial enough to spark a real conversation. Fans of Dave Barry and Erma Bombeck will feel right at home here.If you are done with the noise and ready for someone to just say it plainly, here are your basic instructions for using this product: Open the book and read an essay.Nod vigorously.Repeat. This book makes the case that raising expectations, not lowering them, is the most compassionate thing a society can do. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Common sense called. It wants its world back.We are drowning in information and starving for wisdom. We are raising children who cannot make change, read a map, or sit through a conversation without checking their phones. We are performing our lives for strangers online while the people who actually love us wait for us to look up.SuzAnne Driscoll is looking up. And she has some things to say.Some Things are Just True is a sharp, funny, and bracingly honest collection of essays written from the front lines of modern life. Drawing on a Gen X perspective sharpened by decades of parenting, observing, and paying close attention, each piece takes on one of the most stubborn myths of our connected age: that more information, more options, and more screen time are making us better. You can draw your own conclusions.This book is for you if you have ever: Watched a college student fail to calculate a 20 percent tip and felt a quiet panic about the futureWondered why kids who have been given everything seem prepared for nothingTaken a break from social media and felt genuinely lighter within 48 hoursSuspected that helicopter parenting, student loan forgiveness, and the death of the handwritten thank-you note are all connectedSaid out loud, to no one in particular, "What is happening to people?"Ms. Driscoll covers the topics that everyone is thinking about but not always addressing head-on. She tackles parenting without a spine, the social media performance trap, the college debt crisis, the slow erosion of basic civic knowledge, the quiet conflict between men and women, and why the best years of your life may actually be just around the corner and not in the rear-view mirror.She is not nostalgic for a perfect past. She is paying attention to a very imperfect present.Each essay is short, readable, and built around a simple premise: that the most important truths about being human are not complicated, not partisan, and not new. We knew them once. We can find our way back.Ideal for readers of cultural commentary, parenting essays, social criticism, and lifestyle nonfiction. A perfect read for anyone who grew up before the internet and occasionally misses it.If you have ever felt like the only adult left in the room, this book belongs on your shelf. With the candor of a brutally honest Gen X friend, these essays remind us that everything important about being human never needed Wi-Fi. This item is printed on demand.
