1: This is why audiences are deserting the theatre. Look, there they are, deserting!
2: Anyone seen my novelty doorbells?

#1 Looks like a lot of jelly.
#2 Looks like two jellies.
I don’t think I’m hungry anymore.

1. The orgy scattered when they spotted the peeping tom.
2. The bra for the full-figured gal who still wants to go topless.

1. @FB it’s like a strawberry rhubarb petri dish
2. Women will eventually evolve so they don’t have to say, “my eyes are up here” ever again.

1) Sounds like a perfect Max Bialystock production.
20 It’s Gandalf’s description of seeing the afterlife for the first time. Except he left out the tits for some reason.

“PIPPIN: I didn’t think it would end this way.
GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn’t end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.
PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?
GANDALF: Boobs.
PIPPIN: Well, that isn’t so bad.
GANDALF: No. No, it isn’t.”

1/English Edition: Naked woman with differently-sized legs looks to escape from bizarre pink dimension populated by an armless man, an alien and a bald man with a soul patch, all watched over by a giant floating eye.
2/French Edition: A sculpture consisting of a headless, armless, waistless torso floating in midair, held up by a cloth drape about its shoulders, with a head sunk partly into the ground behind it and a table in front of it, draped with cloth with a pair of bare breasts sticking out, one on either side of a hole.. A rose garland has been draped around its neck, and a bird vaguely resembling a peafowl has perched on its shoulder. Is it supposed to be modern art?

2). Sarah, haven’t I told you to not just leave your tits lying around?
February 27th, 2018 at 9:17 pm
2). “My tits are on the table” sounds like a bargaining tactic.
February 27th, 2018 at 9:21 pm
2). All in favor of tabling the tits say ‘aye.’

My initial thoughts:
1. Wow, that’s terrible, very 70s.
2. … wtf, click disembodied tits on a plate? With, maybe, Caesar and a mutant peacock?
The French Unknown Artist Institute is even weirder than the Anglo-American one.
Does this book, in any language, involve naked people being ripped apart into pieces?
Programmed perversion — did this anticipate the Internet?
Looked at “you may remember” and wondered if the novel ever had a cover you could read on the bus.
#1 is a lot of anatomical issues. Nobody has any parts in proportion.
#2 did this presage “Portlandia”, to put a bird on it? Can’t decide if what le mouton’s hiding is more fried eggs or hotel desk bells. In the former case, they might be applied here:

Sacre bleu!
A gander at Amazon reveals I actually bought this on Kindle during a big freebie binge. It has a cover with title, author, and a geometric design. Probably the only decent cover ever, in a medium where nobody sees it.
Still not motivated to read it soon.

I hope I didn’t transgress any rules with my comments. Feel free to substitute words of your choice.
February 28th, 2018 at 4:38 am
OK. This comment thread has gone tits up.
February 28th, 2018 at 4:40 am
Sorry Tor. We have a two tits per comment limit.

But the best part of GSS is the spontaneous back and forth, the give and take, the, what do you call it, tit-for-tat.
February 28th, 2018 at 4:42 pm
@TW: It makes sense that they should go in pairs.
March 1st, 2018 at 3:03 am
@BC: But Tat didn’t comment on this one.
March 1st, 2018 at 4:48 am
@GSSxn—yeah, and I floated it out there like the perfect softball 😉
March 1st, 2018 at 5:27 am
@GSSxN – Good Show Sir, err Ma’am!
March 1st, 2018 at 3:10 pm
Now you’ve all got that off your chests, it’s safe for me to comment.
(Honestly, you’d thik I’d never heard that one before.)
#2’s too obviously in thrall to di Chirico to be worthy of attention but that first one… it’s as if a pub-fight in Romford (two bald blokes arguing over a girl who isn’t wearing much) had been flung into the titles for ‘The Twilight Zone’ (the not very good one with the eyeball and the door). Maybe this is what a second series of ‘Garth Marengi’s Darkplace’ would have used.

(Honestly, you’d thik I’d never heard that one before.)
@Tat—But postmodern humor isn’t a guy making a joke, it’s a guy acting like a guy making a joke.
Like that de Chirico reference.

@BC: And who am I to ignore such a gracious set-up? Pomo or not.
@Tat: (Sorry. Had to.) So the chap farthest left is the angry publican, thinking “Oi! Take it outside!” in this scenario?
I don’t know, with all that red and pink, it might be too bright for Marenghi. I can see him getting this as a proposal from Warner or maybe Todd and shooting it down by saying “The programme’s called ‘DARKplace’! This isn’t dark!”
I must say, this is a t’riffic site, where an awful, blobby book cover can lead one to ponder imaginary “Darkplace” episodes.

I hate the French cover more – it’s twice as pretentious.
