I have found the most LOL-larious Amazon.com book page ever, for what I can declare with confidence -- without even needing to read it! -- may be one of the worst books ever.

Even worse than Bronwyn and Spikenard, though not quite as funny.

It's a 700-page rant on the evils of birthcontrol! WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS

The product description is in ALL CAPS, too.

No, seriously. I browsed inside the book woth amazon's "look inside the book" feature. It's not just a random, WTF-y product description. The book actually is written entirely in capital letters.

It costs $135.

I'm with the commentor who wants to know:

Has anyone ever purchased this book? Seriously, I must know. No doubt there are people who are unhinged enough to find this book compelling, but are they unhinged enough to pay $135 for it? ... If you have bought this book, please comment and let me know. Post a picture of yourself holding the book, otherwise I will be disinclined to believe you.

I want to salute the person who produced the book and amazon page for their impressive trolling skills, but I'm afraid they might actually be sincere and not be a troll. Poe's law about not being able to tell real creationists or fundamentalists apart from parodies of creationism and fundamentalism is very much in effect.
