Be a Man: The Ultimate Guide

From the creators of the Tik Tok sensation, a hilarious new humor book for men, one part Shit My Dad Says, one part Make Your Bed.

On Tik Tok, Instagram, and his podcast, The Be a Man Guy discusses what it takes to be a man. Now, this funny and insightful book showcases all new laugh-out-loud stories, vignettes, anecdotes, and pearls of wisdom. 

Be a Man celebrates and pokes fun at the strengths and flaws of men today, and offers timeless, old-school advice on How to Be a Man, including:

— Never ask for directions, or use a GPS, just drive around forever 

— Fall asleep watching TV, then get pissed off when somebody changes the channel 

— If you can’t fix something, chuck a wrench

— If you can’t find what you’re looking for in a store, don’t ask for help. Walk out.

— When your dog dies, hand dig its grave. After all he was your best friend 

The Be a Man Guy also takes readers into his early years, from learning math from his uncle the bookie to discovering deep truths about life from the patrons who drank and gambled at his family’s bar in East Boston. Whether in stories, one liners, or sharp comedic essays, The Be a Man Guy will make you laugh and shake your head in recognition. Be a Man: The Ultimate Guide lets men of the world (and the women that might live with them) know that they are not alone. 

THE BE A MAN GUY, aka “Harmon,” was born and raised in East Boston, Massachusetts, in the 1960s. He was raised in a barroom by his uncles who were loan sharks and bookmakers. He has worked in jobs across the board from selling mortgages to being a bouncer at some of Boston’s biggest establishments. His dad was a mailman in Boston who saw it all and raised his three sons with the manliest of outlooks.
