Overwhelming? How much more than whelming would that be exactly?

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."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

She also sent out a message to some supporters that compared her persecutions to that of the Native Americans, and called the Smart Bitches bloggers "spiteful girls."

I'm telling you, next comes pseudicide, and then we start getting notes from "her husband." Might be helped in this case by the fact that she actually has a husband.

Like those mean girls in high school.

Surely Nazis will come into the mix somehow.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

She's already compared this to the genocide of native populations, so I think we can basically give her that one.

And do you know? I feel picked on now as our Native American Indians have always been picked on throughout history.

You're right. She is touching all the bases.

Picked on?!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Don't forget that it would make her great-great-grandmother the full-blooded Indian Feel Bad.

not your mom's socks.

Yes, yes. Those wicked Pawnee were always getting punished for absconding with verbatim and then scalping it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

then we start getting notes from "her husband." Might be helped in this case by the fact that she actually has a husband.

She already put him on the phone to defend her to the AP writer:

She then asked her husband to get on the phone. He told the AP that his wife simply gets "ideas" from reference books. "She doesn't lift passages," Charles Edwards said, adding that "you would have to draw your own conclusions" on how closely his wife's work resembles other sources.

The odors of the forest, the dew and damp meadow, and the curling smoke from the wigwams were left behind as Lorinda

Okay, at this point I'm starting to be a fan, because working that in must have taken more effort than writing her own prose would have. And I speak from experience.

I wonder if she threw some Duran Duran lyrics in somewhere. Now that would be daring.
