Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Does this sound credible to you?

This started a while back on Craigslist, when I was trying to score chicks to do heroin with.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, not buying it.

[to clarify - not buying that Weev hacked Amazon. Totally buying that his "confession" is bullshit trolling.]

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal

Of course, I'm the Snot Boogie of authors...I can write the same stuff. Yay? In all seriousness, he is just smart enough and pissed off enough to handle that topic.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Has anyone else read La Perdida by Jessica Abel? Because I really didn't like it and would like my opinion validated by a competent authority.

They pay me in WOIMS

Polter-Cow, I validate you. From what I remember of the story, the protagonist ventured deeply into Too Stupid To Live territory.

Thank you, Tom. I just couldn't care about anyone or anything, it was all so boring. It was like "Here's a guy and here's a girl and then I pissed him off and then I pissed her off and then I still tried to hang out with them and I am so authentic and awesome and also Mexico is dangerous."

I thought each character was completely unlikeable. Dot' know that I'm a competent authority, but still.

Yeah, everyone was a dick being a dick to each other; it was annoying.
