ReplyDeleteDrinking Piss: A Story of Survival in My Own Backyard
ReplyDeleteYa know, that'd work in Australia ... Piss being slang for alcohol.
So a night on the piss, and sucking down some piss isn't quite as bad as it sounds down under. LOL.
Forked Tongues and Big Tails: A Guide to Being a Devil Chick

ReplyDeleteWild Rumba Bunnies'
Enemas For El Salvador;
A Different Flavor of Asshole
"Wild Rumba Bunnies." That's the shit.
ReplyDeleteTirz, I can think of nature tango dancing buns all day.
I've been watching The Situation Room a lot and swallowing loads of Tropical Berry Minute Maid because of my fucked up foot. It's nice to know I can come onto the computer and see book titles, authors regret not thinking of when publishing their award winning novels.
I think many of the ones you came up would be great for the SELF HELP section for most libraries.
LOL
These are wonderful and please, if anybody uses one of your titles, I will sign up to preorder and anxiously await publication (I may even pay $15 for the ebook!) LoL
ReplyDeleteLOL - great list! Thanks for sharing. :)
