The Recently Deflowered Girl is a 1965 etiquette book for those awkward moments you hadn’t planned for, written by Edward Gorey under the name Hyacinthe Phyppe, an expert in such matters. In each “deflowerment” situation, the proper thing to do apparently is to provide a witty comeback. The entire scanned book is online with Gorey illustrations. This is SFW, unless you have a child nearby who knows what the archaic word “deflowerment” means.

Edward Gorey is amazing. I own many of his books.

Gashlycrumb Tinies is amazing.

The Curious Sofa is brilliant and written under the pseudonym Odgred Weary.

It's not a book review. It's a link to the book. Maybe if you weren't so lazy you would know that.

How do you know it's not your kind of reading if you didn't even look at it? I imagine not very much of your kind of reading exists.

Because you were complaining about the link that you were too lazy to even look at.

Your "look in the mirror" comment isn't really relevant here.
