I like Dune, but I'm not trying to be a Bene Gesserit.
I am, but so far my children have thwarted my efforts to control them with Voice.
I have never read a Gor book. Sounds like I probably shouldn't bother.
I would be there right now.

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."

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

I want someone to write a Good Parts edition of Gor, with all the crack-addled Burroughs adventures and none of the sexism.
... it would be a lot shorter, no doubt.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
it would be a lot shorter, no doubt.
I think one book would do it for the series.
I can image a relationship with a Marvel comics fan, with someone who doesn't like bacon, with a person who can't quote Strunk and White, and even one with a comma misuser. It would be hard, but we could work through it. I can't imagine one with a Gor fan.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I knew a guy who had a bunch of Gor books but when I asked him if he'd recommend one he got a little red in the face and started stammering.

Props for self-awareness, anyway!

Right? *I* am not building a Bat-Signal.
Nor do I have any sort of plans for when I eventually become the vampire witch-queen of the universe. (Being regarded as cute and harmless works in both mine & Clovis' favor, sometimes.)

Man, I never think on my feet that quickly! L'esprit d'escalier, c'est moi.

move out and draw fire
Gor is now totally and fully linked with Second Life for me.
Also, I used to work with three people who were Gorean slave girls in SL. In real life they were all men over the age of 60.
