Catcher in the Rye was written by J. D. Salinger. It's a novel about a red hat wearing candyass who thinks all adults are phonies; failing to see the essential poseur that is so him! For some reason older Baby Boomers get all tear-eyed about this book, thinking it's the one that spoke for their generation which, unfortunately, we hear too much from already.

A Catcher in the Rye is when, after taking a big dump, you reach down to wipe and fart on your hand.

A Catcher in the Rye is sometimes a precursor to aftershock.
I just took and big dump when I reached down to wipe and out of nowhere came a Catcher in the Rye.
