Yes, Misery-Seekers! Its back! The frank report that has taught 100,000 people how to lead truly meaningless lives!

Too long have you, the average masochist, gone about the important task of punishing yourself for your various guilts by hit-or-miss methods of self-flagellation. In How To Make Yourself Miserable, Dan Greenburg and Marcia Jacobs take you on a step-by-step investigation into every phase of self-torture and humiliation, sharing with you many methods they themselves have used to successfully in the past, including:
What to brood about if youre not rich or famous or beautiful or talented.
What to brood about if you are rich or famous or beautiful or talented.
How to regret everything youve ever done or should have done.
How to lose your job, your friends, and your lover or your spouse.

And much, much more!

This book is absolutely hilarious, and the included pictures are so funny. The suggestions are completely absurdunless, of course, you really do want to have a truly miserable life.
