        Re-reading it currently. No relationship to anything going on in the world nowadays, of course 😇

            @michelestrider I used to have a copy of the Book of Mormon (never read it, maybe I should have?) and it just had regular-weight paper.

            Though I'm told any paper can be a rolling paper if you're desperate enough.

                Could go with 10th of December too. George Saunders is 100%%%

                Thanks for posing such a nerdy question.

                I like it!

                    @michelestrider @futurebird I read this too fast and thought you said, “Gibson” so I guess Neuromancer.

                              @michelestrider I love this question!

                              The Hobbit. Or maybe a collection of Gertrude Stein poems (is "Tender Buttons" what I'm thinking of? Help!)

                                @michelestrider Well, if the idea is to convert them to our cult, then it should be a copy of Dungeon Crawler Carl.
