Thank You and You’re Welcome: The Party Game

You can learn more from a critique...The rules are simple: Gather a group of friends, if some just happen to be award winning poets, oh so much the better; engage in discussion regarding all things literature and pop culture, a stretch but a good game should have some element of difficulty; and (here’s where the fun kicks in) have them open up to a random page in Thank You and You’re Welcome. While you never know what exact crossroad we are at in life, we can be sure Kanye can help us locate the profundity of our distress (last four words stolen from the Millennium episode, “Jose Chung’s Doomsday Defense“).  Finally, be sure to have camera in hand cuz after reading some of Mr West’s deeper prose–I can’t read all of the “Missing Bannister Theory” without a deep eye twitch overtaking me–your  friends may not come by your home again.  Good times!

Embrace your flaws The missing banister theory I wonder...(2) Believe in your flyness...
I would rather lose because... Think It Say It Do It I wonder...
I would rather lose because...(2) The missing banister theory (2) Never complain without offering a solution
95% I hate the word "Hate" Love your haters...

    So, Oscar, it’s no coincidence that you have the book open to “Love your haters”. I want that T-shirt we talked about son, just let me know the size ranges so I won’t be suffocated.

      You know the best part? I opened up to a completely random passage in the book. Clearly Kanye knows his audience.

      Once we have the “I ♥ Haters” shirts ready to go, you’ll be the first to know!
