H.P. Lovecraft/Funny

There is a brilliant Alternate Character Interpretation of Lovecraft on Twitter: DrunkLovecraft. Yes, you read that right--and it's amazing. "Bitter, divorced, re-animated author of weird fiction. Has developed a bit of a drinking problem since returning from the grave."

Gems like...

• "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the ability of the human mind to obliterate all its contents with sweet, sweet gin."
• "When confronted by the fungi from Yuggoth, try and lick one. They'll still take your brain, but you'll be high as a motherfucker."
• "Today a cocker spaniel humped my leg, and I immediately thought of August Derleth."
• "If you think God moves in mysterious ways, you've never seen Yog-Sothoth take the dance floor."

If you're getting the references, they're even better.
