Synopsis: | A Guy Adrift in the Universe is a dark, manic, hilarious, loopy ride. Imagine Muddy Waters writing an episode of The Simpsons. This here's the story of A Guy. He's born, lives his life, then he dies, which seems really sad, but it's also really funny, somehow. Along the way A Guy has to deal with a doctor who refuses to put him back in the womb, parents who don't know why the sky is blue, a boss who won't pay him unless he works every day, a wife who won't love him so much if he doesn't pay the bills, an angry lesbian daughter who thinks she's so cool, a son who reminds A Guy of someone he's not sure he likes, and lots of other people who don't seem to accept that A Guy is the center of the universe. You'll appreciate this here story of A Guy Adrift in the Universe if you're a guy, or if you've ever known a guy. And maybe even if you're not or if you haven't, either. | |||||

Synopsis: | When Matt realizes that he hates all of his current friends, he finds himself pulled into a literal cult of new Friendship: that's capital-F Friendship for capital-F Friends. Celia, a ringleader of the Friends, introduces him to a world of backstabbing Frenemies, point-based rankings, group shower parties, and passive-aggressive outsiders -- and he's a perfect fit. As Matt grows closer to Celia, they must overcome their mountainous hang-ups to become more-than-Friends. This hilarious black comedy, narrated by a passive-aggressive outsider, is chock-full of cattiness, ludicrous quirks, and awkward obscenities -- all of the frustrations and joys of human relationships. | |||||
