Your weekly edition of...
Are you fucking kidding me?
A man by the name of Carlos J. Lee decided to take it upon himself to write a book that all women (why not men also or any gender of that matter) can refer to while in a relationship with a man.
The martyr he is! No really. He is a self-proclaimed every(bad)man meaning he has worn every hat on the "badboy" rack. That is his selling point--we should give money to this man who has done every bad thing possible to 200+ women. We should listen to him because he has: "hit it and quit it", "cheated", "sexually manipulated", "home-wrecked", and "obliterated any modicum of self-confidence" of 200+ women?! Can someone please explain to me why he is entitled to publish and sell this book and ask for a whopping $19.95 for promised advice that could be as valid as a magic 8 ball?! No thank you! I think I'll use my common sense for free.
The fact that this book was written with an agenda: to directly targeted for women who god forbid can't think for themselves because *ahem* we are so stupid and can't use our brains, intuition, or morale...because women aren't equipped with those HUMAN attributes!
"WE NEED A MAN TO SAVE US FROM OTHER MEN"!
What does the conception of this book mean?! In 2012?
In the first four words, the ever-brilliant, Carlos J. Lee has managed to gracefully offend two communities: those of us who do not appreciate being called a bitch in a derogatory manner and those of us who do not appreciate "retard" being used as an insult.
No, but forreal he should think about abridging the title: "BITCH ARE YOU RETARDED?: STOP BEING A DUMBASS! EITHER HE LOVES YOU, HE'S IN LOVE WITH YOU, OR YOU'RE JUST SOMETHING TO DO FOR RIGHT NOW. EITHER WAY, LEARN THE DIFFERENCE, AND WHEN TO WALK AWAY."

Honourable mention: the fact that Carlos J. Lee forgets to include the people who don't identify with a gender/queer folks who might want to get into on the "Bitch Are You Retarded...." action. Maybe those folks are happy they aren't included in his bogus advice book.
CARLOS, WE DON'T NEED YOUR HELP--YA HEAR?
