In the book The Boy Who Lost His Face by: Louis Sachar, a boy named David tries to get in the cool group by helping his friends Scott, Randy, and Roger carry out a prank. Their target was an elderly woman who was called a witch by all the kids in the neighborhood. When they attacked her and stole her cane David flicks her off to try to impress Randy. But when they leave the old lady cried out to David "Your Doppelgänger will regurgitate on your soul!" The following days David finds himself experiencing strange happenings that lead him to believe that he is cursed. After being rejected by Randy and his gang David finds himself unable to do anything right. He breaks his parent's window, his little brother hates him, his zipper is unzipped, his pants fall down in front of the whole school, and he falls off his chair in every class. He also makes friends with the weird kids in the school, Larry and Maureen "Mo". His actions make him seem like one of the three stooges.
