Over the Shark

getused

Kanye West is droppin' knowledge in Thank You and You're Welcome, his forthcoming book we hope is a joke but which doesn't seem to be.

Certain to sell out at Urban Outfitters, Thank You offers sage wisdom rarely seen outside of bumper stickers, like, "Get USE to getting used!" Another page warns, "Be leery of the free gift bag," and then goes on to explain: "Don't let people think you owe them something. That puts you in a position of weakness."

As we see it, the whole book is basically a testament to West's extreme paranoia and unwillingness to trust others, but maybe the publisher understands something we don't. Certainly they're not saying that because West is rich he's in a position to dispense advice, right? Because that would be horribly misguided and silly.

    "Get use to getting used." As a person addicted to no backspacing and commas, I can't even wrap my brain around that one. Kanye doesn't care about grammar.
