I read two Gor books because Hubby liked them and I wanted to believe that such unreedemed dreck was a fluke. It wasn't.
The Xanth premise was amusing for the first three books. It ceased being amusing.
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"rouge AI?" Oh, yeah, I judge.

Probably younger than I did. I was so startled and offended when I did that I sold them instead of giving them to the library. There was something about a girl's underwear, if memory serves, that made me look up and go "whuh?"

I read a lot of Xanth and eventually grew to dislike it and probably read beyond that point. I don't regret it, though. No regrets!
Gor I don't even know what that is.
I want to take a closer look at msbelle's prospective houses. The prices are great!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I like the first of the highest priced msbelle.
Saw this elsewhere. The article has a good point, but the headline is...unfortunate. [link]

There's a discussion of GWTW non-con or what going on in Literary. Gor is the poster child of fantasy non-con. I was a fast reader and a slow comprehender. That's my teen excuse.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sadly, there was a lot of stuff about underwear in Xanth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, Daisy, the topic of that reminds me of something that keeps making me laugh. There's some commercial on TV that uses the word "envelop," which makes me snicker because in my college feminist days, we decided (half-seriously) that PiV sex should be called "envelopment" rather than "penetration." You know, for the female agency.
Um. Anyway.
Probably younger than I did.
I don't remember reading them past 12 or 13, so yeah, probably.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Yes, these are all in ok school districts, or I should say some are and some we think are and are verifying right quick.
Jesse, I know right!? Although, I got my co-op really cheap when I bought. Still, I'll be buying for less than I am selling and potentially will double my space. I will have empty rooms.

Well, GWTW doesn't have women chained to the walls.

The house on Mary Drive is the one I liked before, but it was thought to be in the wrong school district, I think. I still like it, is my point.
Googled Gor. I don't know how I missed that series, but somehow I did. I think I'm okay with that.
