With 106 phrases, questions, and comebacks, How to Piss Off Men is your guide to comebacks for every type of situation involving a man. Whether it’s referring to his jersey as “cosplay”, telling him you’ll “just Google it” when he begins to mansplain, or 

I saw this in a book preview event and immediately asked for it. I work with the public a lot and some of these I would love to give as clap back answers, but would never (but maybe) use.

I actually hadn’t heard of Kyle Prue before this book, but I did go and follow him on TikTok after reading this. I do appreciate the fact that at the beginning of the book, he explains that he is a Cis, white male, and that some of these sayings may not be okay to say in certain settings, and to overall make sure you are in a safe space before saying them – if you actually do.

I was able to find a physical ARC of this, which is now going around my workplace as coworkers enjoy it, so this is a funny read and many have/will enjoy it, especially if you’ve been in a situation with anyone male.
