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.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Holy shit amazeballs:
A white romance novelist's ethics complaint against the author Courtney Milan for calling her book a "racist mess" led to the censure of Milan and sparked an uproar across the publishing world. Now the novelist, Kathryn Lynn Davis, says that her original complaint about the professional harm she suffered was not accurate.
In an interview with the Guardian, Davis said she was "encouraged" by the administration of Romance Writers of America (RWA), a trade association for romance writers, to file a formal complaint against Milan, an influential former board member and diversity advocate. She now feels she had been "used" to secure a political outcome that she had never intended.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm turning pages waiting for the illicit affair and suspicious maiming accident chapters.

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.
I had to explain Chuck Tingle to Jim.
I regret my life choices.

But Chuck Tingle is the best!

Though I admit you do have to use the word "pounded" to explain him.

I agree! With both points! Which is why Bev was patting my hand and making "There, there, love" noises in email.

I don't think I could explain Chuck Tingle to anyone. There is too much. Maybe sum up

Ahahahaha! All I did was read a list of Chuck Tingle's titles to Tim, which led to about 3 days of him doing things like holding up a coffee mug and saying "pounded in the butt by my unbreakable caffeine addiction." (To which I held up my coffee mug and said "NOT pounded in the butt by my unbreakable caffeine addiction because even though it's an addiction, it respects my boundaries.")
