The thicc wife guy, as you will recall, was an extreme dumbass who posted about how he loved his "curvy wife." He was roasted into oblivion last summer for uploading these deeply patronizing and unnerving words to Instagram:
"Her shape and size won't be the one featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan but it's the one featured in my life and in my heart. There's nothing sexier to me than a woman who is both curvy and confident; this gorgeous girl I married fills out every inch of her jeans and is still the most beautiful one in the room."
It would now appear that the thicc wife guy – real name Robbie Tripp – cannot be stopped, because he is writing a book about how to "deal with haters and overcome negativity while chasing your dreams."
A recent post revealed he submitted a proposal to his agent for a book that he believes he was "born to write."
|| This week I finally submitted my book proposal to my agent (!!!). After five long months, I’ve created a tidy 80 page proposal for a book that I firmly believe I was born to write: how to deal with haters and overcome negativity while chasing your dreams. I doubt many of you know this, but I’ve actually been here once before. Last year I got insanely close to achieving my lifelong dream of getting a book deal from a major publisher… and then it fell through at the last minute. I was subsequently rejected by 12 different publishers, all for different reasons, before having to go back to the drawing board. To be honest, I was hardly disappointed because I believe that what’s meant to happen will happen. If something doesn’t work out, I don’t stress, I just remember that’s not God’s plan for me. There’s no such thing as defeat for someone who refuses to be defeated. Plus, this was all before my Instagram post went viral last year and provided me with an eye-opening experience to say the least. A spark of an idea turned into a flame and now here I am, five months later, feeling GLAD that my first idea didn’t work out so that this one could take center stage. Do I know what will happen with this one? No. As any author will tell you, the publishing game is mercurial and getting a book deal is about as difficult as throwing a dart through the eye of a needle. But I can tell you one thing: I’m damn confident in myself and what I’ve created. And I can’t wait to see what happens. The next several weeks will include me playing the waiting game and hoping that one of these publishers catches the vision of how this book will inspire readers to ignore those who try to bring them down and create their dream life. Thank you to all of you who follow my journey here. It means so much to me. If you have some good vibes to toss my way, now would be the time haha. I’ll keep you updated! Have a great week! ||

Hilariously, before he became known as the thicc wife guy, he had his previous book deal fall through. "I was subsequently rejected by 12 different publishers, all for different reasons," he says.
"A spark of an idea turned into a flame and now here I am, five months later, feeling GLAD that my first idea didn’t work out so that this one could take center stage," Tripp adds, improbably.
In case you wanted to know, he's still praising his wife for being thicc.
Recent highlights:
'Everyone celebrates your body positivity, but I get the privilege of experiencing the fullness of just how soft and sensual and stunning you truly are'
'I'm absolutely infatuated with this soft, stunning goddess'
I think it's worth mentioning that in a lot of his posts, Tripp refers to his wife's "doll face." Not "dollface," like some sort of singing 1950s Broadway guy, but "doll face."
In the 22 posts he's made on Instagram since October 1st 2017, he's referred to his wife's "doll face" seven times. Is that weird? I think it's weird.
Let's continue:

'My wife is a stunning size 10/12 and I can hardly keep my hands off her curvy figure'
|| As we go into the last couple weeks of 2017, it’s crazy to look back at the incredible year we’ve had. And according to Google, there’s a lot of people out in the world who have been interested as well! So allow me to answer these top ten searches once and for all: 1) I have a gorgeous wife named Sarah, she’s a successful fashion blogger @sassyredlipstick, and she’s the love of my life. 2) My Instagram is @tripp and it’s where I have the most positive, inspiring followers from around the world who I love to chat with! 3) I wrote a book called Create Rebellion and it’s all about being true to your creativity and chasing inspiration. You should go buy it on Amazon. 4) My net worth is growing, but it isn’t near as important to me as the things I create, the goals I accomplish, and the people I love. 5) Yes, my wife is a stunning size 10/12 and I can hardly keep my hands off her curvy figure. 6) You can follow me on Twitter at @ iamrobbietripp but I think Instagram is a much more positive platform so I’m here much more often. 7) Yes, I’ve been mentioned in the New York Times a couple times this year which is pretty crazy. I’m currently working on something I hope will end up in there soon. 8) I do not have a Wikipedia page so feel free to create one about me! Please be nice though lol. 9) I’ve been a contributing writer to HuffPost for over a year and a half now and I’m very proud of the work I’ve done. Go read my articles! 10) I’m 27 years old and just getting started. I’m slowly and steadily accomplishing every goal I’ve ever set for myself and I can’t wait to release my creations to the world. The best is yet to come! || #YearInSearch

This one isn't about having a thicc wife but Christ alive read it anyway:
'As soon as I sat down to get this picture, one of the employees rolled me his basketball and I instinctively started spinning it on my finger. I love the electricity of New York City'
'A thick slice of paradise'
