This book changed my life
The Goat writes, "Some books have made a huge impact on my life." It's true. It wasn't until the b3ta mods read the Flashman novels that we changed from mild-mannered computer operators into heavily-whiskered copulators, poltroons and all round bastards in a well-known cavalry regiment.
What books have changed the way you think, the way you live, or just gave you a rollicking good time?
Friendly hint: A bit of background rather than just a bunch of book titles would make your stories more readable

That's one of those tricks
you do and expect it to utterly not work at all, so you do it as a sort of tongue-in-cheek act of silliness, knowing that the "victim" will never be fooled by it- kinda like telling people they can access your collection of mp3s by pressing Alt+F4.
So one day when a bunch of us went to lunch I did that to a co-worker and did an exaggerated sneaking-off-to-my-chair walk and sat down- only Greg genuinely fell for it, and got quite pissed off at me for it.
Somehow that made it even funnier.
