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."

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

How does it keep getting worse?!?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Ha, Matt!

I don't really know anything about Mr Velour other than the stuff I have read the last few days and I'm trying to keep an open mind because I am really only reading one side of the story (it's a very persuasive side, but I'm sure there's stuff I'm missing) but I did read the interview where Chuck Tingle comes up and the rest of that interview pretty much makes him seem like a prick so....yeah

Because books.

Last I heard (I haven't been on Twitter all day) he was refusing to step down, but I can't imagine there's any way he could effectively serve his term after this.

New outrage! Via T.S. Eliot. The thread is as good to read as the letters themselves (which are linked) -- [link]

Ok, I thought I could just click over and check that out but I'm gonna have to save that for when I can really devote some time and attention to it.
