One Adolescent Journalist's Cheerful Diatribe Against Teenage Plasticity

The book that started it all! Adolescent culture in America has degenerated to an all-time low. Fickle pretensions, capricious brand name loyalties and plain old idiocy are infesting high schools throughout the nation more now than ever before. But 17 -year-old Alaskan humor columnist Marty Beckerman rises like a phoenix from the sordid ashes of his generation, utilizing a vicious wit to show just how much greater the world might be if we were to simply get rid of all its worthless people. Moronic cheerleaders, phony psychics, teen beauty queens and evil hippies: take warning… your time has come!
