Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

That's why it was a good name--movies, American folksong, fruit--a PLETHORA of references.

Pffft. You're never going to beat Pynchon in a battle of references.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Wait, the Clementine lovers weren't referring to the John Ford movie?

Well don't take Hec's crack-smoking word for it! Me, I was referring to the gawdawful folk song. But see, that's the beauty of the thread title. It works on so many levels.

Honestly, the Pynchon novela is almost unreadably bad. If it hadn't been on the midterm, I totally would have skipped it.

If Chumley had been a girl-cat, he'd have most likely been a Clementine.

That's for sure.

For an ultrasmartie, you are so, so very wrong.

C'mon! It's got a Beatles parody band called The Paranoids. With songs!

Who wouldn't want to read that?

I actually need to go to Sephora today. We'll see if I have enough energy to fight my way down the Magnificent Mile in a half-hour. Maybe if I reward myself with manga?

Admit it! Jane Austen has no beatle parody bands in her novels. Not one.

For concealer? Black nail polish? Smashbox? Sexy sexy lipstick?

What's that manga genre with all the androgynous boy love?

Though, thinking back on the coke machine you slashed, I recall you prefer rough trade.
