If someone told me I needed to sacrifice “an animal” to save me, I would at least look for something other than my pet as a first try! And if I had to kill my pet to escape hell, I would be a lot more guilty and broken up about it.

I might also try to pass the curse to someone else, but I’d look for someone who might conceivably deserve eternal torture, such as a murderer, or perhaps the gypsy granddaughter, who seemed to be complicit in turning damnation on me in the first place.

Yeah, I might try to go to a local jail or prison and give it to one of the inmates.

Heh. I can just imagine how \*that \*would go.

“Here, have a button!”  
“Huh?”  
“No, free of charge, here’s a button!”  
“What the hell?!”  
“C’mon, don’t you want a shiny new button?”

The whole mixup with the envelopes was so friggin obvious that it was a huge distraction. Is there ANYONE who didn’t see that coming?

Up until the kitty murder I thought it was okay. But after that point, I was actively rooting for blondie to get dragged to Hell. What, she couldn’t go buy a chicken, or a goldfish, or something? Bitch. Yes, she deserved to die, and I hope she burns in Hell!

The whole premise is sort of unintentionally humorous, or maybe intentional at that. You have the existence of hell, which presumably also means there’s a heaven, and one or more religious or philosophical roads to help you avoid the former and reach the latter. But, due to an unfortunate clerical mix-up, the protagonist may end up having to spend eternity in hell!
