So I was messing around in GMod and found the Bombinomicon prop. This is the blurb on the back.

Is there a transcript of that available anywhere? I can hardly read it. The $6.66 price tag is funny, though.

If I'm not mistaken, it is taken verbatim from the movie evil dead

After you look at the font for a bit, you realize that certain letters have extra space after them (like z) and that others are a little distorted. (t looks like c, etc.)
So squinting at it for a bit, this is what I came up with:
Inked in the blood, bound in the hide, and written on the stolen paper of British kings! With over 400 pages of spells, enchantments, recipes and anecdotes about blowing things up, the Bombinomicon is a must-have for the practicing explosives aficionado and demolitions expert alike.
Now in it's fifteenth printing, every copy of the Bombinomicon is guaranteed to be possessed by an angry talking ghost.
"If ye gaze at one tome this year MAKE IT NOT THIS ONE!" -- Merasmus The Magician
"Unputdownable: This book's jaws are like a vise." -- Gravelpit Arts Monthly
"If you like the dark arts and explosions, this might very well be the best book you read all year." -- Demolition Gazette
Discount: $6.66
Edit: Typo.

Seconding this post, as it's also what I got when I pulled up the actual texture file back in October, aside from a typo ("real all year"). Looks like there's a typo in mine too, though. Oh well. D:

Don't you tell us that this is 3 months old. This is REDDIT, goddamnit. If we can't be force-fed the same bullshit on a regular schedule, the parrots get cranky. ;)
I'm going to go find today's reposting of the Charlie Chaplin speech and watch it 12 more times. I like it because I know all the approved things to comment about it.

If you're so frustrated about the reposts, make your own content and post it.
