For Pete's Sake: A Celebration of Caucasian Conversation - Hardcover

by Erin Tyler (Author), Erin Tyler (Illustrator)

A celebration of the phrases you grew up hearing-and accidentally started saying yourself. If you've ever tied something down with bungee cords and declared, "That's not going anywhere," or walked into a crowded restaurant and said, "Looks like we got here just in time," this book is for you. Bestselling author and designer Erin Tyler invites you into a world of suburban catchphrases, dad jokes, and regionally inherited weirdness with this hilarious and affectionate tribute to white people's favorite things to say. This isn't just a collection of silly expressions-it's a nostalgic, laugh-out-loud reminder of where we came from (linguistically, anyway), and how deeply our words connect us to family, culture, and a whole lot of weird small talk. Whether you're fluent in Caucasianese or just getting started, this book is gonna be a hoot and a holler.
