From Harper's Weekly Review (http://harpers.org/archive/2008/02/WeeklyReview2008-02-05), something that amused me:

. . . in Britain retail chain Woolworths withdrew from sale a bed for six-year-old girls called the Lolita Midsleeper Combi after receiving complaints from parents. “We had to look it up on Wikipedia,” said a store spokesman. “But we certainly know who she is now.”

This provokes an incapacity of speech, along with an impulse to giggle, despite one's deep sympathy for that poor girl who Nobakov so mis-used.
