A Prayer For Owen Meany by John Irving

You can hate me if you like, I know it's a revered tome, but I thought this book was an absolute gaylord.

Not read it yet! But I like your review - very succinct.

I was thinking about reading it, though.

I expected you would after a review like that

You know me too well, snookums.

You could say that I know you in the biblical sense. It'd be wrong, but you could say it

What does in the "biblical sense" mean, anyway? I've always thought that was a stupid phrase. Do you mean you know me in the way that Noah loaded two lots of everything on to his ark? Or that you know me in the way David beat Goliath? Or perhaps in the way that I shalt not kill?

It means I know you in the same way that kind men are hung from crosses

You know me by rope and nails?

I don't even know what we're talking about any more.

You philistine.

The Philistine's were who Samson killed. Clearly the worst result of a haircut of all time
