Everyone knows reality can really bite. Now you can bite back with this original collection of 400 aphorisms, laugh-out-loud one-liners, and other intellectually and linguistically titillating nuggets that zero in on homo sapiens being himself in politics, sex, love, marriage, family, economics, youth, old age, and more. From thought-provoking to downright irreverent, these seductive verbal twists and turns offer insights, entertainment, and, if you're frustrated with the mess the world is in, the comfort of knowing you're not alone. So if you need help connecting with an audience, sounding smarter to your friends, or just making it through another day, this is a resource you can really sink your teeth into

Reviews for Reality (Can Be Okay, but Mostly It) Bites: Original aphorisms and other philosophical fragments with teeth

Hutchison captures poignant thoughts that will stick with readers and offer launching points for deeper reflection - a feature of the aphorism that's most difficult for writers to capture - Kirkus Reviews The perfect book for this moment in time. One of those rare, rewarding works you can dip into wherever, whenever, and come away smiling and maybe a bit more edified. -Andrew Frothingham, co-editor of And I Quote A treasury of compact wit and wisdom - Richard Lederer, author of Anguished English
