The Monster At The End Of This Book is a classic. I think I may have read the Kurosaki book but I'm not sure. Riki Tiki Tembo was one of my favorites. I used to have his entire name memorized. |
I've gotten into the habit of dropping his entire name at work when my coworkers get annoying, it's been pretty good at de-railing their trains of thought.
There seems to be debate about the exact name:

I like the purple one, because it feels more balanced and I can actually see things in the painting. The one with the red seems to frenetic.

Exactly, my dear sir. Would you be interested in accompanying me to the country club? I'm sure you're interested in listening to us talk about how rich we are and how many pieces of expensive art we have. _________________ attitude of a street punk, only cutting selected words out of context to get onself excuse to let one's dirty mouth loose |
