Juvenile, profane, and timeless, Fuck This Book collects images of real public signs that have been mischieveously altered by stickers bearing the most expressive of all four-letter words. Addictively hilarious, the results show a world persuasively transformed. Please Don't Fuck the Pigeons, indeed. What happens if one triggers the Automatic Sprinkler Fuck Off Valve? And is it any wonder The Fuck Depot is so popular? All photographs are unretouched the result of countless hours on the hunt for the almost perfect sign, in need of just the slightest improvement. This is not social commentary. There is no message. It's not meant to offend, exploit, or embarrass anyone. All real stickers. All real signs. All in fun.
Bodhi Oser is a designer and photographer who recently moved to Los Angeles from Philadelphia. Perhaps you've seen his work.

August 14, 2005: I saw this book and the cover immediately caught my attention. I expected it to be a social commentary possibly a critique of journalism. But I was much delighted to discover its contents. I was cracking up and decided that I must have this on my coffee table. After having it there for a while, I decided to take the photographs and make them into a poster. I made a collage of the photos and laminated the whole thing. It is now a poster on my office door. I just love the looks on the faces that enter my office. :)

July 29, 2005: I heard about this book from a friend who works at a magazine. He explained it to me over the phone, and it seemed like a funny idea for a book, but until I saw the whole thing, I didn't really get how funny it really is. If you want a book to leave out on your coffe table when your friends come over, this is the one.
