Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.

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 often say Holy Mother of God, or Mother of God when I really want to say Motherfucker.
I do this except it usually backfires and I wind up saying Holy Mother of FUCK.

So, remember upthread when I discovered that even though some of the new Temeraire books are being shipped already, the Kindle version won't be released until the official date of March 6? And I went "bah," and then pre-ordered it just to be sure?
Well, the same thing happened with Mira Grant's final zombie book--and some of the ebook readers sent her email calling her all sorts of misogynistic slurs, like "greedy bitch".
WTF. People SUCK.

Well, the same thing happened with Mira Grant's final zombie book

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I am annoyed that the physical books of Timeless have shipped, when the Kindle version isn't available until March 1, but WTF? Why would I complain to the author?!?
