Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So, not about Michael Jackson this morning, despite temptation:

Jennifer Aniston is drawing strength from her girlfriends to get over her split from husband Brad Pitt. The Friends actress is still heart-broken by the collapse of her high profile marriage to the Troy hunk last month, but she is determined to move on with her life by concentrating on her career. The 35-year-old says, "There are times when you look in the mirror and go, 'OK, we're having a good day.' You go through those moments of hating things about yourself and not having any positive reinforcement. You know when I feel inwardly beautiful? When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'. The most beautiful I have ever felt is when I am surrounded by a group of women and we are having some wonder ful evening together and are celebrating women. No men allowed!"

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

When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'.

Just last week, I saw the Friends episode about this. With the wind and the pools and the whatnot.

I hate it when I scuff new shoes the first time I wear them. I must remember to tell that to my goddess circle tonight; they'll understand.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What's up with my brain today? Now I feel light-headed....

A number of science fiction luminaries and a bot got together to write the very worst book they possibly could and submit it to PublishAmerica, and were, of course, accepted.

Subsequently, PublishAmerica apparently found out what was going on and rejected the book, explaining that after having accepted the book for publication based on its high quality someone actually read it and discovered that it sucked.

Now you, the reader, can discover the transcendent badness that is Atlanta Nights, by Travis Tea (say it out loud). The press release is here.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

(It's Starbucks coffee. I feel bad about this, because on the sidewalk nearby is a guy with a coffee cart who's had that sidewalk spot for about 25 years, and he's got his cart all covered with signs about why we should by coffee from him rather than from Starbucks. And I agree with most of his reasons, but I just really can't stand the taste of his coffee.)

His name isn't Tweak, is it? (South Park episode that's almost exactly like the situation you describe; watch out for Gnomes and hang on to your underwear)

Oh well...I need coffee myself.

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

Subsequently, PublishAmerica apparently found out what was going on and rejected the book, explaining that after having accepted the book for publication based on its high quality someone actually read it and discovered that it sucked.

Oh, that's beautiful. And, of course, I must now buy this book.

I read the first page of that, and experienced actual pain. Be careful.

I had to try very hard to stifle my laughter, as my boss was near....

I think I need to buy it too....
