The Revenge of the Damned Book

Just back from an appointment in Lowell. I managed to get to the noon Mass at St. Joe's, and I did a little browsing at Barnes & Noble.

Oh.

My.

God.

The Damned Book, aka. The DaVinci Code is on a rampage. The paperback movie-tie-in edition is out, both in trade-paperback and drug-store-romance-novel size (anyone know what that size paperback is called, officially?). Consquently, the movie version is now officially the Damn Movie at our house (Yes, my family, especially my dad and I, have a thing for giving nicknames to persons/places/things we either really like or really hate, or gleefully get annoyed with). I wish I'd had a set of V's throwing knives under my cloak, I'd have done a little book-skewering.

Anyone here know where I can get an anti-Damn Book icon to add to my stable of LJ icons?

On that note, here's something Ruby shared with me, which she'd found on somethingawful.com, an interesting parody on my (in her words) "faaaavorite book-about-to-become-a-blockbuster-movie":

Take that, and *that*, and *THAT*, Dan Brown! )
