You Can Put a Dog in a Cat Costume, but it’s Still Going to Piss on Trees. By Beau Dashington Editors Note: Beau and I are now even on PUA assignments. Let’s see how long this stalemate lasts. Here at the PSBC we’re always looking to flush new and original turds. But some literarry shit-piles are so big, we keep coming back up them. So here I am, reading yet another book by a self-styled “pick up artist” (PUA) Its not the first time we’ve read a book by one of these Zeta Males who claims to have the perfect tips for getting laid. OneRead More →

In the first of our new series of guest reviews, Merjot has volunteered to flush the turd that is Bram Stoker’s lesser known horror classic. A Literary garbage fire by Merjot Rating this story on my arbitrary scale, I give it 3.4/10. One happy evening I was maneuvering my way through the best subreddit on Reddit, r/PieceofShitBookClub, when I happened upon the lair of a spider: Beau Dashington. Enticed by his words of “guest reviewer” and “willing to read really shitty books”, we entered into a dialog that would ultimately change the course of my natural life– and maybe the fate of the world.

Peasant vs. Imperialist… plus a Monkey by Admiral Fartmore Over the last year, American popular discourse on China has reached a level of negativity that is normally reserved only for popular film franchises. As such, we thought it would be great to examine  a work where these two worlds collide: a 1980 Chinese knockoff comic book called “Star Wars,” which is best described as a 150 panel retelling of A New Hope written by people who only watched snippets of the film. Credit for discovering this old ripoff goes to Maggie Greene, who found a dilapidated copy while doing unrelated research in China. The originalRead More →

The Crystal Turd by Beau DashingtonE Editors note: There’s apparently a lot of bad Star Wars books. If I’m completely honest, I’m not really that into Star Wars. I’m more of a Star Trek kind of guy. But even as someone who doesn’t get into the Star Wars universe, its impossible not to notice it as a landmark on the pop cultural landscape. I haven’t really loved any of the twelve Star Wars movies that have been released in my life. And it is twelve, if you include Ewoks: the Battle for Endor, which I definitely do, since I watched it many times as aRead More →

Why do Astronauts need to know how to swim? by Admiral FartmoreEditors note: ???????????????????????????????????? I read this book on a plane. It wasn’t planned. It wasn’t so I could take shots out the window to show the curvature of the earth. I read this book on a plane to distract myself because I really, really hate flying. I hate being out of control, especially when I’m hurtling through space on a vessel I don’t understand. So what better way to pass the time than to read the ramblings of a man who is terrified of hurtling through space on a vessel he doesn’t understand? TodayRead More →

Nine Foot Whale Schlong by Beau Dashington Editors note: We are back again, again. Again. Any of you who follow the PSBC, will know that we love animals. They’re just so huggable and loveable. We don’t love animals as much as Malcolm J. Brenner, who wrote an autobiographical account about how he loves to fuck dolphins. We love animals a healthy amount, which is why we can’t stop reading books about dogs. And so I turn to another book about animals, this time set in the deep blue sea. There is something fascinating about giant monsters from the depths. These leviathans in the dark watersRead More →
