Even if you've never read any of HP Lovecraft's works; if you've ever been to any sort of convention or if you describe your self as a geek/nerd, chances are pretty good that you've seen the name Cthulhu somewhere. You may even associate that name with a big, scary, squid looking head.
Who, or what is Cthulhu though? Well, read the book The Call of Cthulhu and find out.
What's that you say? You're far too lazy to read a short story that is only about 40 pages long? Ok, fine. Be that way you lazy bastards. In that case, watch the above video, which summarizes the plot of The Call Of Cthulhu in under two minutes. Hopefully, that isn't too long a time for your ADD addled brain to deal with.
There, now you know Cthulhu. May you spend the rest of your life in fear now, like the rest of us.
It is more likely that anyone who has read the Call of Cthulu has blocked it out for the fear that festers in their brains after such a reading.
