- Oh, sorry, I see you're studying. I'll come back later.
- "Knock knock" "Who's there?" "ORAL" "ORAL who?" "ORAL the salacious sight gags used up or do you have one more you'd like to try out?"
- Of all the disturbing things here, the most disturbing is that either that dude wants to put beer in a martini glass or else that gin needs a bottle opener (?!). Or else that's champagne, in which case everything is wrong, burn it all down...
- Oh, and her mouth. That is also disturbing. The mouth-to-Everything-Else ratio is way, way off.
- As if this back cover type were not hilarious enough, this one omits the closing phrase! It's supposed to go "RIDICULOUS OPENING PHRASE... / Cover copy that sounds like it was written by a prurient 11-yr-old then translated into Ukrainian then Portuguese then Urdu then back to English again... / RIDICULOUS CLOSING PHRASE." I have countless examples of this very type of back cover. And yet, here, I am forced to use my imagination to finish off the final sentence. The depraved inkstains of her WHAT!?!?! LUST PEN? SIN QUILL? I'm gonna lose sleep over this.
- "The entries of the facts of her lust sessions" ... [steps back, admires wordsmithery, kisses fingertips] ... MWAH!
- "Penetrating pen" ... "every shocking inch" ... The subtlety! It's maddening!

His hands slid haltingly on her belly.
I think we're done here.

of her....SIN CHRONICLE, of course, they just printed the concluding line in the wrong place?
Wow, that drawing is just dreadful.
Nah, these always have an opener and a closer, so if u move SIN CHRONICLE you’ve still got something missing. And yes, the cover is garbage. Thankfully it’s hilarious garbage.
You can admire the wordsmithery on the back cover, but I think they did it better on the front. "Every lust orgy became an entry in her..." Wa-hey!
For me, the worst thing on the front is her breast. It's terribly unnatural. The juxtaposition of her terrible mouth and the beer bottle is pretty good (for applicable values of good) though.
