German: We call this creature the sea hedgehog, because it is spiky like a hedgehog :)
English: To us it is a sea urchin. Wastrel of the deep. A wretched, miserable soul cast down by God, condemned to a watery grave, a cruel living death. A being of Dickensian suffering.

The only way I thought my darkly twisted comedy fantasy, JUST ABOUT ANYONE, would ever be in the top 1,000 of anything is if there were only 1,000 books in the category.
