This book changed my lifeThe 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

Quantum to ScatThe Incredible Shrinking Man
A rather innoccuos choice really, but one that opened up worlds of quantum mechanics, drug trips and revelations about eternal life.
The premise was that he was getting smaller and each day he would measure himself against a ruler and he was convinced that once he could no longer be measured on the ruler he would be dead, gone, whatever.
Obviously he just keeps getting smaller right down to the molecular level and the book ends with the realisation that he wouldn't simply disappear that he would just keep reducing down forever. But in all honesty he would starve to death i suppose...Anyways, amazing concept that blew my 14 year old mind.
120 DAYS OF SODOM
Personally i thought this book was hilarious, the accounts really do get worse and worse and it progresses taking filth beyond humour and right into Dali territory. Fucking a goats nostril while it lapped your balls still sounds like a winner! it proved that you can never take a joke to far.
