Booktober: The Bigolas Dickolas Incident
What’s the funniest book recommendation you’ve received? Our answer might beat it—we’re highlighting The Bigolas Dickolas Incident this Booktober!
It took place in 2023, when a Trigun fan recommended the sci-fi novella This Is How You Lose the Time War on Twitter. The post’s virality elevated it to meme status, drawing attention from an author of the novella, a creator of Trigun, and several journalists.
To top it off was the reccer’s display name: bigolas dickolas wolfwood, which is a cheeky reference to Nicholas D. Wolfwood from Trigun Stampede. Thanks to the tweet, This Is How You Lose the Time War saw a boost in sales four years after its publication.
