A couple years back, I was at the Phoenix airport bar. It was
empty except for one heavy-set, gray bearded, grizzled guy who
looked like he just rode his donkey into town after a long day of
panning for silver in them thar hills. He ordered a Jack Daniels
straight up, and that's when I overheard the young guy with the
earring behind the bar asking him if he had ID. At first the old
sea captain just laughed. But the guy with the twinkle in his ear
asked again. At this point it became apparent that he was serious.
Dan Haggerty's dad fired back, "You've got to be kidding me, son."
The bartender replied, "New policy. Everyone has to show their ID."
Then I watched Burl Ives reluctantly reach into his dungarees and
pull out his military identification card from World War II.
It's a sad and eerie harbinger of our times that the
Oprah-watching, crystal-rubbing, Whole Foods-shopping moms and
their whipped attorney husbands have taken the ability to reason
away from the poor schlub who makes the Bloody Marys. What we used
to settle with common sense or a fist, we now settle with hand
sanitizer and lawyers. Adam Carolla has had enough of this insanity
and he's here to help us get our collective balls back.
"In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks" is Adam's comedic gospel of
modern America. He rips into the absurdity of the culture that
demonized the peanut butter and jelly sandwich, turned the nation's
bathrooms into a lawless free-for-all of urine and fecal matter,
and put its citizens at the mercy of a bunch of minimum wagers with
axes to grind. Peppered between complaints Carolla shares candid
anecdotes from his day to day life as well as his past--Sunday
football at Jimmy Kimmel's house, his attempts to raise his kids in
a society that he mostly disagrees with, his big showbiz break, and
much, much more. Brilliantly showcasing Adam's spot-on sense of
humor, this book cements his status as a cultural
commentator/comedian/complainer extraordinaire.
