Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

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."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Um, is it a spoiler if I'm posting, cause I'm still alive?

ZOMG you have totally ruined EVERYTHING. I might as well just never read another book again ever!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey saameg, how is it being immortalized as someone with a cold? I mean, all 8 strangers who've purchased the book now know you as a person with a cold. People are going to meet you and expect you to be coughing. And they'll be disappointed that you're not.

They'll be all, "do the coughing thing!"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Hey saameg, how is it being immortalized as someone with a cold?

I can't speak to that, but I can say that your pimping one of my books in your book is a brilliant good feeling.

Thanks!

Hey sarameg, how is it being immortalized as someone with a cold?

At least you didn't mention me sounding like a freaking barking seal and people telling me to just stop.trying.to.talk. I mean, how sad is that?

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Well, Hecubus, I also love your books. But I have an audience of 12(sixteen if you count the Olberblog, and I already have a cranky old guy correcting my memories of the musical segues on "Countdown") so the pimping opportunities have not been heavy on the ground yet.

I finished reading the last 400 pages of HBP today, and I plan to start on Deathly Hallows tonight.
