I read I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell about two years ago and I thought it was one of the funniest things I've ever read. He's a terrible person, but can spin a great story.

I just finished reading it. I do agree that he is a terrible person, but I guess that's what makes his stories.

His stuff is pretty funny but you have to think all his stories are fabricated but it's whatever still funny.

Funny, but full of shit, no way all that could happen to one man, no matter how much ass he "gets"

It makes for an entertaining story.

One of my friends told me there was talk of a movie at one point? I don't know how valid that is. He does seem like a bit of an arsehole but at least he can write a pretty funny story.

I'm pretty sure that he and some other people were working on writing a screen play for the Austin Road Trip story. I might be wrong though

I heard that from a friend...not really sure if it's true or not.

while I think that a lot of his stories are exaggerated, I don't doubt half of the stuff that he says. It's not that unbelievable. I get such a kick out of reading that shit.

Sure is. It's entitled Assholes Finish First. And oh how true that is.

But, I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell is by far the funniest book I have ever read. I can't stop laughing whenever I read that book. I read that book for comic relief and whenever I need to feel better about myself.

I read this funny quote that someone left on his myspace a while back saying "Emo kids at our school are carving your name in their wrists." Haha, I thought that was the funniest thing ever.

According to Amazon, Maddox wrote the introduction to the new book. This could be good.

Thanks. And I sure hope so. Not making it twice straight is killing me after being spoiled all those years.

I actually frequent his website, so yes I can confirm this to be true. I'm pretty sure its in pre-production.

the thing that really bothers me is that tucker max is a horrible writer. he's lucky the stuff he's writing about is funny as fuck.

I know you weren't referring to me, but where in Franklin are you from? I lived there until I went away to school.

He's actually a pretty fucking good writer. You might think he's a dick, which he probably is, but he's a good writer.

if you think tucker max is a good writer, i'm not sure what to tell you. its not good writing. i'm not even talking about his tone or the content or that he's a dick. i think he's funny as hell. but if he were not writing comedy, the writing ability would stand out like a sore thumb.

It's kind of hard to say that though, because he hasn't really written any other genres. He's good at what he does. He might be a great prose writer too, neither of us know because he doesn't write that type of work.

Actually, he is a pretty good writer. Storytelling doesn't really reflect one's ability to write under traditional standards. I'm sure if you saw him write something academic, you might change your mind.


I read the book a bunch of times a few years ago, then lost it.

I've just been re-reading the website stories and waiting for Assholes Finish First to drop.

I enjoy his work. His writing ability is pretty good, I think, aside from his tense changes. It helps that he's an intelligent, educated person.
