Lamentations of the Father
Ian Frazier wrote “Laws Concerning Food and Drink; Household Principles; Lamentations of the Father” in the spirit of the King James Bible’s list of rules. A sample of what waits in the video:
Various Other Laws, Statutes, and Ordinances Bite not, lest you be cast into quiet time. Neither drink of your own bath water, nor of bath water of any kind; nor rub your feet on bread, even if it be in the package; nor rub yourself against cars, nor against any building; nor eat sand. Leave the cat alone, for what has the cat done, that you should so afflict it with tape? And hum not that humming in your nose as I read, nor stand between the light and the book. Indeed, you will drive me to madness. Nor forget what I said about the tape.
