Every family has one. Every WhatsApp group. Every office. You know the type – the lane-hogger, the queue-jumper, the clueless loudmouth who somehow thinks they’re the normal one. But what exactly is a gobshite? And more importantly, how do we deal with them?
The Gobshite Guidebook is the first no-nonsense, laugh-out-loud manual for surviving the gobshites that walk among us. From the barista who dries cups with a floor cloth to the history-making egomaniacs who derail entire nations, gobshites are a universal nuisance – and they’re not going anywhere.
Part survival guide, part social commentary (with a dash of therapy), this book dives into the mindset, mayhem and mystery of the gobshite, with tips on how to spot them, outwit them and protect your peace. Because recognising a gobshite is step one. Not becoming one? That’s the real goal.
