Some bookshop in London a few years ago did a hilarious window display full of books with dodgy double entendre titles.Originally posted by suityou01 View PostA poor innocent educated type in loafers was reading a book. I chanced upon the title, and had a typically uneducated Viz moment.
The title?
The grapes of wrath.
I thought "Yeah, I get them, especially after an Andromeda strain"
I'm such a knob.
Anyone else got and book titles that can be wildly misconstrued into Viz toilet/gutter humour? It is Friday after all.
The only two I recall off hand was "Girls' Adventures with Horses" (or something similar), and Baden Powell's best seller "Scouting for Boys".

The was this, young chap, on the flight last night. Love stricken I guess. He was jotting down these lyrics -
"Lying here in this empty bed, dreaming about you"
The drivel went on...and on...
I invited my own twist to the lyrics to coincide with his
"Will these sheet ever get cleaned" etc etc...
Was grinning the entire flight. It might have been the previous 10 hour shift that made me delirious
