I am not much of a fan of the "pop-in", with regard to walking into video, book or music stores without an idea of what I'm looking for beforehand. Anyone who knows me knows that my mind runs a mile-a-minute, and is rarely focused. As a result, if I go into said type of store without a game plan I (as a result of being immediately assaulted by the unending possibilities and choices) go into shut-down mode, and end up leaving more irritated than when I walked in.
But, on Saturday I couldn't find the video store I was looking for, and instead came across a used bookstore that I decided to enter. And it worked out. Found this gem for three bucks. Really interesting, really funny, and totally worth it.

Ummmmm...YES.
"Dude, we gotta make sure, she could be lying. We'll tie her the f*** up and throw her in the river. If she floats, she's a witch, and we'll pluck her out and hang her. If she sinks, she's not a witch, and maybe we'll get her out before she drowns. Maybe. Just 'cause she ain't a witch don't mean she wasn't a bitch!"
"We like to cook in cauldrons 'cause it's easier to carry around one pot instead of ten. Why don't they f***ing get this! F***ing Dark Ages, you know?"
A Pact With the Devil. That shit's just too legit. Bummer it's in French, would have been a good read.
Masked witch of a Gypsy Caravan.
Towards the end the book got kind of heavy into fertility gods and goddesses. "I mean, look at it, man. Like a moose! Yeah, you can touch it if you want. But only for a second."
"How come you're always trying to get me to touch your dick?! It makes me so mad I just wanna get naked and wrestle! Yeah, I'll loose the club- one of 'em, anyway!"
