The Angry Little Man Behind This Book

About The Author:

Don Pingaro is a creative from New York with a burning passion for calling people out on their shit. While many of the social etiquette rules in this book were crafted by Don himself, the majority were crowdsourced from New York locals, including friends, family, and neighbors in and around New York City. These survival rules are the Secret Rules of NYC that New Yorkers know but have never had documented until now. 


Enjoy your book, and if you ever spot Don around Manhattan, leave him alone and go about your day in accordance with these rules.
