I can't believe I'm still getting you all to entertain me for free

Okay, looks like a long day ahead, after which I will want to be amused! And entertained! And scintillated! And surely, you do too!

Therefore?

Yes.

Contest.


Since other people, when they are bored or upset, turn to collections of rights-grabbing anthologies of vaguely inspirational literature instead of internet amusement and/or pictures of cats with badly spelled text on them, and since my Patriarchy class last night discussed the coupling between food and care and how certain feminist theorists think this needs to be uncoupled, and since I think it's funny--

Today, it is of paramount importance to fill in this book title:

Chicken Soup for the _____________ Soul, a tender collection of _____________

Example solutions include:
Chicken Soup for the Chicken's Soul, a tender collection of reflections on the experience of slavery, exile, and cannibalism.

As usual, show all work for your fabulous undisclosed internet prizes!

I need to stop entering your contests. My co-workers aren't accustom to me laughing and I think it's upsetting their notion of reality.

Ahem. May I present:

Chicken Soup for Cthulu's Soul, a tender collection of soft and slimy things, gibbering things born in the dark swamps of R'lyeh while the Old Ones dreamed, a descent into madness borne on a black plague-wind from the desolation of the human soul. Plus helpful tips on tax breaks for your cult of worshippers, who revere your most horrible form and offer their very blood.

I would so definitely read such a 'tender collection'.
