The two fish? Gay, gay, gay.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
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."

Just reading the reviews of the Liberals Under the Bed book. This made me go "WTF?":
12 of 18 people found the following review helpful:
Teach your children to hate now!!!!, August 22, 2005Reviewer: GWB "George Bush" (Washington DC) - See all my reviews This book will surely teach your children to hate everyone that doesn't agree with them. Any parent who buys this book for their child will probably raise a BTK killer!
OK, funny as hell that someone signed in as George Bush, but why is this review getting marked as "helpful?" Clearly Amazon needs another voting category, something like COMM.
And that reviewer definitely needs to go review "My Pet Goat."

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
From the comments:
There is no "hatred" anywhere in the book, as suggested in other reviews, nor is there any attempt to proselytize our kids into any political party.
Uh... but it uses "liberals" as a dirty word. I can tell -- it's in the title.

The trouble with liberals under your bed is that they spend all night having non-procreative sex.

Always Anti-fascist!
BWAH! There's a story like that in Hockenberry's book. (Only he's under their bed and the guy is a LOTR fanatic.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If they're under a bed, what other positions are there room for?

Hee! I love y'all's responses to the book, even if the book itself is...frightening. Though I do like the companion suggestion of the "Help, there's Conservatives in my Closet!".
I'd heard of "King and King" (and the uproar against it) but not the other two. Whatever, man. Indoctrination only goes so far...my Ashcroft-loving dad has a pot-smoking son, a queer daughter, and another daughter who married a guy who is black and Muslim. Not super conservative.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I sent the link to my brother noting that my niece's birthday is coming up soon. He thanked me. With no irony.
I think he missed my point.
