    About this ebook

    There are some things that most of us would agree need to or should be addressed in today's Australia. Most of those things, you would think, should be common sense but for whatever reasons the do-gooders of this world always seem to get in the way of common sense. As do the greedy and the down-right deceitful.
    BOB explores some of the more prevalent occurrences that piss-off the average Joe on a regular basis, topics that are debated with much verve in homes, in offices, in bars around Australia.

      Book Of Bullshit

      (Australian Edition)

      Introduction:

      There are some things that most of us would agree need to and should be addressed in today’s Australia. Most of those things, you would think, should be common sense but for whatever reasons the do-gooders of this world always seem to get in the way of common sense! As do the greedy and the downright deceitful!

      BOB is a book exploring some of the more prevalent occurrences that piss-off the average Joe on a regular basis, topics that are debated daily with much verve in homes, in offices, in bars around the country. Initially this book was going to be titled ‘Book Of Bitches’, as in bitching about the way some things are and shouldn’t be. But then I realized that most of the things discussed in this book are absolute bullshit – bullshit in that they are allowed to continue!

      Why is that - it beats me! Maybe that question should be asked of those that perpetrate the bullshit – but as for getting a straight answer from them, I wouldn’t hold my breath! I guess in most cases its just plain greed, stupidity and/or a power trip on the part of those we’ve entrusted with looking after our country, our businesses and our way of life. Some of those people are actually quite intelligent, which begs the question why do they get it so wrong so often. Then of course there are also those who are just clueless big headed ego driven look at me dickheads! Unfortunately while most of those morons may have giant ego’s they generally don’t have the intelligence to match and unfortunately it’s some of those we’ve entrusted with the task of looking after our country, our businesses and our way of life.

      You may agree or disagree with what’s written in this book, that’s the beauty of living in a democracy, we’ve got the freedom of speech (to a certain extent) but there are plenty out there who would and do deny you that freedom of speech. And while I’ve attempted to touch on the most common piss-offs occupying the thoughts of today’s average Joe’s I’m sure you could almost certainly come up with a myriad of other examples of bullshit happening around this beautiful country of ours, but in the pages that follow you will find the ones most of us average Joe’s would like to see rectified.

      You won’t find in depth or detail in this book, all I’ve done is raise the topics for debate and added a little background. It’s up to you to continue the debate! If we all make enough noise then maybe, just maybe, some of the bullshit that’s going on in this wonderful country of ours might be brought to an end.

      So come on – let’s make some noise! Let’s out these fraudsters leeches ego maniacs and party poopers! If laws need to be changed then let’s change them!

      Let’s make Australia great again!

      The Bullshit Scale:

      Each topic is rated 1 to 5 or a 10 on its bullshit content on the bullshit scale:
