I have never read a Gor book. Sounds like I probably shouldn't bother
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.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

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."

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!

I like Dune, but I'm not trying to be a Bene Gesserit.
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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

For some reason, I just find this delightful.
