A random book meme
Nov. 4th, 2004 07:53 pmGrab the nearest book.
Open the book to page 23.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post the text of the sentence in your journal...
...along with these instructions.
If "Whuh!" counts as my fourth sentence, then the fifth is:
You reckon you could get your mouth around something this wide?
If "Whuh!" doesn't count then the fifth is:
'Cause if you could, I'd like to marry you.
That would be the first Preacher graphic novel :) Actually that was the second-closest book, but Club Zero-G doesn't have five sentences on page 23.

So very appropriate.

You want to know about voting. I'm here to tell you about voting.
Imagine you're locked in a huge underground nightclub filled with sinners, whores, freaks and unnameable things that rape pit bulls for fun. And you ain't allowed out until you all vote on what you're going to do tonight.
You like to put your feet up and watch [a soap opera]. They like to have sex with normal people using knives, guns, and brand-new sexual organs that you did not know existed.
So you vote for television, and everyone else, as far as your eye can see, votes to fuck you with switchblades.
That's voting.
You're welcome.
