    Based off of the try-hard linkedin douches I know I’d say:

    • The Art of War
    • Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
    • The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
    • Rich-dad poor-dad
    • The Art of the Deal

        Fuck great call. I thought having two “war” novels might make the joke worse but Infinite Jest is peak big brain public masturbation reading material

          Lol, I literally got called out for reading Infinite Jest on a bus. Wasn’t a flex, the bus was just my primary reading time on weekdays and it was on my ‘to finish’ list.

          Agreed that I probably looked like a jackass.
