I’ll start, so as a teen I stumbled across a book called," Someone comes to town, someone leaves town." The synopsis caught me as it’s about a man with a mountain as a fathera washing machine as a mother and one brother that is dead and trying to harm him. I’ll admit some of the technical terms were too much for my developing mind but it has stuck with me all these years.
What is the wackiest / craziest book you’ve read and did you enjoy the ride?
The Illuminatus! trilogy by Shea & Wilson read at a relatively impressionable age of 22 was a mind altering experience that permanently changed my look on what fiction can be. Read it a couple of times since, and it holds up.
Currently working on it for the first time, it’s pretty fun so far. Have you read Principia Dischordia? Cus those dudes did really found a Dischordian religion and that’s the manual.
The Principia Discordia feels more like an object of art than a book. Very peculiar art. Like, it isn’t a book I’d ever recommend as a book, but I’m glad that I read it and, critically, glad that I have a copy lying around the house.
It’s a hell of a ride that book, 100% worth reading just for the experience.

All hail Discordia!
This was my answer to the twitter prompt “if you could choose one book as a mandatory read for all high school students, which book would you choose?” straighten those kids right out! Although i assume there may be some pornography in it…
