When I was writing The No Asshole Rule, one of the things I would do to entertain myself was to go to iTunes and listen to clips of various songs on the subject. I just did a search of iTunes, it returned 150 items, so there are a lot of asshole songs. My favorite is Dennis Leary’s "Asshole," which is a weird combination of wit, sarcasm, and spot-on examples. I got an email this week that pointed me to the YouTube video of Leary’s minor masterpiece— check it out, it is pretty funny.
P.S. My second favorite song on the subject is Kinky Friedman’s "Proud to be Asshole from El Paso," a parody of "Proud to be an Okie of Muskogee."
