You Might Be An Urthling, If...
You’ve tried to explain “fuligin” to the clerk at the costume shop. You display any of the following bumper stickers ( on an OFF-road vehicle, natch) “The Conciliator Saves” ”I Brake for Arsinoithers” (probably wise!) “Apport on Board” “Vodalus for Autarch” “Free Canog” a parking permit for the Old Yard of the Autarch’s Citadel “Severian Lives” “Legalize Alzabo” “Fusils Don’t Kill People, People Kill People” “Don’t Blame Me , I Voted for Typhon” You’ve ever referred to your fanny pack as your sabretache. You mispronounce quite common words such as urticate, salpinx, or bordereau. You’ve ever cited The Book of the Wonders of Urth and Sky or Blaithmiac’s Lives of the Seventeen Megatherians in a bibliography. You’ve shopped for Fechin prints, or an “Eschatology and Genesis” handbill, or -hoo, mama! - a Jolenta calendar (with a centerfold of Jolenta as Jahi) You’ve ever claimed any of the following on your tax return: charitable contributions to the Pelerines Your other lives you acquired through alzabo, as dependents Income from practicing “the mystery of the guild” freelance Your will specifies interment in the Garden of Endless Sleep
