  • Sort of a metdifferent example, but take the following steps:
    • Find a friend who doesn't hate to read, but isn't that bright, or who wouldn't get the satire, and tell them to read it.
    • Discuss it seriously.
    • Say you think it should be practiced nowadays. (Straight face, everybody.)
    • Insist you thought it was a cookbook.
      • Many lulz will be had.
      • If you can actually maintain the straight face and convince your friend, you may award yourself a Crowning Moment of Awesome. And should probably find a better friend.
