Something from Going Postal by Terry Pratchett
This is a very good book so far (I'm only on page 69, man has my reading slowed down. ;_; ). Thanks Corin for suggesting it! ^u^/
Here's my favorite character description so far. This guy isn't a main character (as far as I can tell), but his description is priceless! XD
"'Crispin Horsefry, my lord, and I don't like your tone of questioning!'
For a moment it seemd that even the chairs themselves edged away from him. Mr. Horsefry was a fyoungish man, not simply running to fat but vaulting, leaping and diving toward obesity. He had aquired, at thirty, an impressive selection of chins, and now they wobbled with angry pride.*
* It is wrong to judge by appearences. Despite his expression, which was of a piglet having a bright idea, and his mode of speech, which might put you in mind of a small, breathless, neurotic, but ridiculously expensive dog, Mr. Horsefry might well have been a kind, generous, and pious man. In the same way, the man climbing out of your window in a stripy jumper, a mask, and a great hurry might merely be lost on the way to a fancy-dress party, and the man in the wig and robes at the focus of the courtroom might only be a transvestite who wandered in out of the rain. Snap judgements can be so unfair."
ROFL... transvestites. XDDDDDDD
