Ew. You know that guy, Matt? The one who makes videos of himself dancing all over the world so that mom’s have something to forward over email and the Today show has another “cute” story in the morning? Well now he has a book. What? Why? Forget It, Jake, It’s Terrible Attempts At Capitalizing On Garbage Internet Town.

how much?
Wait, Gabe, aren’t you capitalizing on garbage internet town? Isn’t that your job? Hypocrisy ZING!
Except your attempts are un-terrible. Don’t make me wet with fire.
Where the hell is the designer of that book cover? They should have hired photoshop Gabe since he was just promoted to Executive Vice President of Being the Best at Photoshop.
Seriously! Terrible.
I bought it because I’ve met Matt multiple times and he’s an interesting guy with a great outlook on life and it’s actually a relatively compelling travelogue coffee table book that’s also only 10 dollars?
Matt is my hero. He did something because it was fun and ended up getting paid for it. Isn’t that what we all want?
Not that I’m going to buy the book or anything. Still, all power to him.
I saw the book at a distance at a Borders and at first I was like, “is that a book based on that ‘Where in the World is Matt Lauer’ thing they do on the Today Show? Ew” and then I saw it was about the dancing internet guy and I was far more disgusted.
Oh, come now, at least he’s not writing a memoir. That would be awful. But this isn’t that bad of an idea. It makes a lot of sense, actually. But I’m not going to buy it.
I read “Round Ireland with a Fridge”, and it was pretty entertaining. If that exact same guy, with his exact same book, had first been an “internet sensation”, I would want to punch him in the face. And his book. And Nicole Kidman.
Oh, and if you give up a job as a videogame designer because something more fun came along, then, um… Oh God what am I doing with my life. I should never have dropped out of Silly Dance School.
