They say that you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. But what if a book judges you with its cover? What then?
The artist behind the Story of My [Effing] Life account draws brutally honest book covers with hilariously truthful titles that most of us can relate to. For sure, it’s funny cuz it’s true. But it also hurts cuz it’s true. Upvote your fave book covers and share your thoughts about which ones you can relate to the most, dear Pandas!

What's that noise downstairs. What noise? Go check and I'll go grab a bat. And other ways your spouse sends you to die while they get back up.

Story of My Life enjoys quite a lot of popularity, with over 137k followers on Instagram and over 38k fans on Facebook who enjoy candid covers that show how similar all of us really are on the inside.
Try to imagine for a moment that we live in a world where nobody can lie (like in the movie The Invention of Lying) and everyone’s brutally honest with each other. Sounds like a utopia. For a minute. Then you realize what a nightmare it’d be.

Pick-up your cake fork and conduct along with the song. It's your birthday after all...
Even though we tend to associate brutal honesty with telling the truth, the two aren’t always one and the same. At the end of the day, a person who is honest is telling their subjective truth (lowercase t), not objective Truth (capital T). Is there an overlap between the two? Can some truths be closer to Truth? Of course! But staying humble about our supposed brutal honesty is important as well.
This means that we ought to acknowledge that when we “tell things as they are,” we’re actually sharing opinions that we’re emotionally invested in, not universal facts. Sometimes we find that we’re too categorical and black-and-white in the way we think. Perhaps when we’re being brutally honest, we’re just being brutal. So something that can help you bring some nuance into discussions is changing how we express our ideas and communicate with others.

For example, we can avoid words like always, never, everyone, and no one, as well as such colorful phrases like the fact is, you stupid idiot, I have a PhD and you haven’t even finished high school, and my father will hear about this. Instead, try being more tactful by saying in my opinion, have you thought about..?, or I see your point, but have you considered all of these other valid alternatives?
And be sure to actually listen to what other people believe, especially if you don’t agree with their opinions. Life’s not about being right and pointing out everyone’s mistakes like a judicial robot, it’s about growing as a human being. Now that sounds like a great quote to put on a book cover! Right above a drawing of a robot with a judge’s wig, a laser cannon, and a hat that says, “Well, technically, we don’t dream of electric sheep!”

I've never seen nor read any Harry Potter books and I'm fine with that.
My thought exactly. It's like when referring to Star Trek someone says "I liked the one with the whales". You know a conversation isn't really going to happen.

Well, I haven't watched "game of thrones", nor do I collect stamps, but it never occurred to me anybody would be interested to know what I do *not* do.
I feel sorry for those who have never read the Harry Potter Books. I was well into my 40's when they were first published. They were so much fun to read. My inner child is still alive and well and I am now in my 70's.
After my acquaintance told me about her painful chemotherapy she undergone to treat her breast cancer, I "started a conversation" in a honest attempt to help her: I informed her about the indisputable scientific fact that casein - the protein in animal milk is causing chronic, painful inflammations (such as arthritis) in human body, as well as chronic diseases (such as diabetes), heart diseases, and various cancers, especially breast cancer. Astoundingly to me, she reacted like I just insulted her mother or kicked her in the stomach; and I even did not mention that meat and eggs don't provide any nourishment to us, and undermine human health, and the health of the environment , as well. Very difficult to "crossfit" benevolence.

I have so much to do I don't even have time to make a list of the things I need to do.
So basically the author took old and well known tweets and other social media post and put it in drawings of books covers. Pathetic
