And now, for something completely different...

I present for your delectation the best bitchy writing I've seen in a book in years. From the mind-bendingly terrifying Patron Saint of Plagues (Barth ANDERSON 2006) out of the mouth of the protagonist's friend, the Pan-Islamic Health league physician Dr Isabel Khushub, I present the following memorable quote:

"Your mother has a dick. I don't need underwear or your condescension."

Now go forth, vote, and read that book!
