An amazing series of books written by Derek Landy. It follows the adventures of a skeleton sorcerer/detective (Skulduggery Pleasant) and his partner-in-crime Valkyrie Cain. They go around saving the world and such likes with other characters such as Tanith Low, Ghastly Bespoke, Fletcher Renn, Erskine Ravel and much more. In my opinion, the books are absolutely fantastic - witty, clever, surprising you at every turn, full of shocks and surprises. If you haven't read them yet, give them a go - you won't regret it.
Valkyrie allowed herself a moment, then went back to the door. There were squad cars all over the place, Guards milling around the street and barking orders into walkie-talkies. The poor guy she'd kneed in the groin stood hunched over by an ambulance, and the cop Margaret had struck stood nearby, glowering.
The Bentley pulled up, and she waited until the cops had stopped admiring it before stepping out and running over. She jumped in.
Skulduggery looked at her, then looked at all the cops. ''Your doing?'' he asked. She nodded, and he sighed as they pulled away.
''OK then, who tried to kill you this time?''
Person 1: ''Have you read the new Skulduggery Pleasant book, Kingdom of the Wicked?''
Person 2: ''I'm nearly finished. It's so good, isn't it?''
Person 1: ''Absolutely!''

Get the Skulduggery Pleasant mug.A smart-alec remark made by one who is very witty. Used to tell the other person to dumb down the vocabulary. Usually precedes a sentence containing difficult vocabulary.

"Please don't die" is the new "I love you". Spreading rapidly worldwide, it's the coolest way to tell someone you love that you love them without sounding like a total tool. Do it today.. tell someone to "please don't die" and show them you really care.
I hope you have a good trip baby, please don't die. :(

Get the nigger please mug.The ever so annoying and pointless feature on an LG phone that is almost destined to go off anywhere there is a group of people (during class, gatherings). Apparently it is telling you to speak a person's name so you can call them without pressing any buttons, but I don't think I have ever seen anyone use this feature.
