Discussion Questions for The Trans-Occipital Demonstration of Negligible Force, a novella as-yet-unwritten by me (and you).
1. The book opens and closes with a primordial lump, saying "obiter dicta" repeatedly. Have you ever seen a primordial lump on the bus? What route and time of day? Did it ever say "obiter dicta"? If not, what if anything did

Sounds like something we should put in a bill right away if they overturn Roe v. Wade.
Brilliant responses, all.

2. Seven feet for seven tribes, seven brides become seven wives. We find rabbits in the green, green grass. Grass is life, green is life. The rifle takes away so the grass can grow- a reverse mower.
It's not genuflecting, its the transcribing of a warding symbol on the air. The important thing to remember is to use one dot per diety believed in by your warding target. Use corresponding symbols. I think of lice because it helps.
3. Scalloped potatoes do not exist, therefore eating them if you have food allergies causes you to die.

2. Trophies from slaying the 7 footed, 7 foot tall rabbit. Camoflage to sneak up on the 7 footed, 7 foot tall rabbit. Scary Automat? You ever see a 7 footed, 7 foot tall rabbit? Because they're wearing thongs.

4. Trees.
5. I'd rather Disswear.

2. The seven feet are still attached to a squirming Basque-bread rabbit. It serves as a reminder that even the timid must struggle. Lice? Unconditional love.
3. To the punch: agreed. Scalloped potatoe is no deadlier that clam-yam.

I foolishly identified chapter XXVIII as 28. I soon realized
my error seeing it was being read right to left.

First, of all, this is a very hard book. One of the hardest parts about this book is trying to get it open. Then I finally figured out how to open it. The book opens with a primordial lump. If you do not have a primordial lump, ask yer mom. She may have one in her boob breast. Make sure you get the kind that says "obiter dicta ( ... )
