HA! The Library Thing UnSuggester. Put in a book, it will tell you what NOT to read next.

Okay, that's funny. I put in George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones and the unsuggester produced a list comprised almost entirely of books on the Bible and Christian theology.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

In that unSuggester, "Economics in One Lesson" pulls up approximately 50 Terry Pratchett books. It's true about my library, but seriously, is Pratchett incredibly anti-economics?

That's what's weirding me out, bon. Game of Thrones has a number of really fascinating fantasy religions, and can in some ways be construed as a commentary on religion, the church, and worldly power, but I would never have pegged it as explicitly anti-Christianity. Just thought provoking.

hip deep in pie

I put in Play It As It Lays, by Joan Didion and also got a billion Terry Pratchett books.

I hope NYC-istas aren't overly fond of fast food.

What is even happening?

I really am sorry. I get the Go Fug Yourself RSS feed and I clicked before I knew it was about Carrot Top, and then I looked, and... then I just didn't want to suffer alone.

It was the lower picture that did me in. I was prepared for general Carrot Top fug. I wasn't prepared for so much exposure.

I'd better go look at the frackles link.

Punishingly Intricate

. I put in George R. R. Martin's A Game of Thrones and the unsuggester produced a list comprised almost entirely of books on the Bible and Christian theology.

That's what I got when I put in Persuasion.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I put in Daniel Quinn's Ishmael and it told me to avoid books on knitting and/or by Tolkein.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I put in Catch-22 and got Vogue Knitting (which I own and enjoy).
