Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered
by Georgia Hardstark, Karen Kilgariff
"Everyone has their own problems. Some of them are awful and tragic and if you knew what they were, you’d be grateful for the ones that you have."
I definitely recommend the audio version of Stay Sexy narrated by the authors and some of which was recorded in front of a live audience. It added some energy and nuance I’m not sure I would have picked up on were I reading rather than listening. In addition to the laugh-out-loud moments, this book also had some surprisingly good advice. For example:
~ "…be honest with yourself. The problems you have are yours. No matter who came into play before, during, or after, you are the common denominator…. This is not to say that you’re always to blame for what happens to you—that would be dumb, and mean, and kind of Republican."
~ "Don’t be a dick and do good things."
~ "Don’t throw your shit all over town. If you have a problem, don’t just confide in whoever wanders into your office. Save it for a person who cares about your well-being."
~ "Fuck politeness. Fuck the way we were socialized. Fuck the expectation that we always put other people’s needs first. And while we’re at it, fuck the patriarchy!"
