Perhaps I've Said Too Much
There's a prankster in all of us. Whether you're carving evil messages into your coworker's banana peel or telling your kids that, yes, raisins are actually dehydrated people, there's a certain, sinister-yet-fun draw to really messing with people.
In Perhaps I’ve Said Too Much (the much anticipated follow-up to the heralded, award-winning Things Go Wrong For Me), Rodney Lacroix gives the reader some insight on what it's like to live the prankster life. No one is safe, including Rodney himself as not all of his antics go entirely as planned. Join him as he spins some yarns, gives you some new ideas and lets you relive the catastrophic consequences of jokes gone terribly wrong.
Complete with original hand-drawn artwork and graphics, one-two punch Brain Nuggets, and the ever-popular Draw Something Files, Perhaps will not disappoint.* (Assumes you are an immature child who enjoys potty humor and making fart noises with your armpits.)

Did you have a bad day at work? Traffic sucked? Did your dog just leave you a steaming present under the Christmas tree? Curl up with a chapter or two of this book and it will make you forget about all the bad things!
One of Rodney's gifts is his ability to take something -- a memory, an observation, an experience -- and remember what was funny about it. Some folks look at a glass half full. Some look it as half empty. Rodney tries to think about what is funny with the glass.
Rodney will challenge you to think of your own stories. He'll might gross you out. He might make you say, "hey you little bastard -- I believed you when you told me in 8th grade that you were mugged in Lawrence". But one thing is for sure -- he will definitely make you laugh -- and we all need a lot more of that.

I consider myself a fast reader. I usually get through three or 4 books a week, depending on how they hold my interest.
Knowing how much I loved "Things Go Wrong For Me" I assumed I could read this book in one sitting...WRONG.
I had to read this book in short spurts because it hurt too much to laugh so hard.
"Perhaps I've Said Too Much" is a hilarious, irreverent, wild ride with some over the top brain nuggets thrown at you.
You have outdone yourself, Rodney!

This is a great follow-up to one of my surprise favorite humor books of 2012, Things Go Wrong for Me.
I’m not one to pick up a book by someone who admits to being a liar and a prankster, but because of Rodney’s first book, I knew I’d grab Perhaps I’ve Said Too Much hot off the press – and I wasn’t disappointed.
Though I’ve never met him, I can hear him telling me the stories, hands gesticulating wildly, wide grin on his troublemaking face as he makes rambling asides that somehow, magically, help support the point he takes many roundabout turns to get to, all the while keeping me engaged. Rodney’s voice is his own, and – not to give anything away – the only one hurt from his shenanigans is himself (or should I say, the only thing to get hurt is his own pride?). This is what makes a good prankster: in the end, everyone is laughing.
Peppered with random thoughts, ridiculous pictures, social media screen shots, and drawings that allow us to peek into his psyche a little more than some of us are prepared for, this book is not just one by a simple storyteller, but someone passionate about making a point – even if his point is simply that he’s in on the joke that life is not something to be taken too seriously.
From embarrassing tales of his mom opening a can of whoop-ass, to his own offspring good-naturedly one-upping him, this is a fun read that I’d absolutely recommend. I’ll be telling everyone I know to get both of Rodney’s books for the people in their lives who love a good laugh caused by the kind of stories only someone with a well-honed yet twisted sense of humor can tell.

Lacroix wrote a memoir about his childhood and all the hilarious crap he went through. So much of it hit home and that made it even funnier. I laughed so hard while reading, I cried and nearly peed my pants.
His antics, the party, the Tiffany's lamp … they will all crack you up. So if you want a good laugh, pick up this book and enjoy. And don't forget, it's a sequel so you may want to grab the first one.

Clever book from an extremely confidence adult adolescent. Perfect book for that personality type in the ages of 14-20. While I appreciated the book, I feel it would have been much more enjoyable 10 years ago. Reading it now, it was less of what I expected, a handbook for messing with people, and more of a book written by somebody who's very proud of so many things they've said in their life. Entertaining for what it is.

Another Gem from Rodney. His second installment had me again laughing out loud. Having known him for close to 30 years I can honestly say that his stories and pranks are like a fine wine. They get better and more refined in his old age. So here is to seeing more works from him in the future. If you haven't already purchased either one of his books I highly recommend you get both of them, and then get them again as gifts for friends and family.

If you survived childhood, as many of us did, and you were entertained/irritated by “that kid” that loved to prank, then you will love this book. It’s a blow by blow of what could happen if someone has too much time on their hands. Stoners will love it. My favorite chapter was when the Chicken pusher got pranked. I hope this book sells a million copies because if LaCroix’s current employer reads this book, he will probably be looking for work.

Once again Rodney Lacroix writes a book that had me laughing from beginning to end. I follow him on other social media sites and love his daily humour so I knew this book would rock! I loved his first book and was thrilled that he wrote a second one. This definitely is a book everyone needs to read if you have ever played a practical joke or thought about it.

Laugh out loud funny. Rodney's sense of humor is awesome and I am glad he shares it with us. This was a nice follow up to his first book. His blog and twitter posts brighten my days. I remain a fan and look forward to future reads from him.

If you're in need of a good laugh, or many, pick up this book. Plenty of personal stories from an unabashed wiseass to make you chuckle. A man with no shame, he tells all, and makes it funny. Does what a good humor book should do.
