The stupid is about to be kicked up a notch or three.  Get ready for every older-guy crush in the rest of the series to suddenly not other you anymore ( Read more... )

I read and enjoyed this book when I was younger. I'm so ashamed of myself.

Great job pointing out all the wrongness!

Claudia's crush unsettled me as a kid. I was the killjoy who knew that an adult crushing on a kid was wrong (I was unsettled having a crush on Joe McIntyre, who was only eight years older than me, and so I vowed to wait until I was 18 to try making the moves on him via fan-letter, which obviously didn't happen!), and so my mind flashed "tell my parents!" I was molested when I was five, did tell my parents, and so my brain wouldn't let me be okay with Claudia's chapters until I read that Guy wasn't flirting with her and that he had a family. Then I had a bigger problem with Claudia being upset that the man wasn't a pedophile.

I'm so sorry that happened. :(

I know, right? Girl has serious psychological issues. (So do the rest of the cult club, tbh.)

Also do you ever wonder what the other parents in Stoned-by-the-Brook do without the BSC to improperly raise their kids for them? --I still like my theory of time freezing in Stoneybrook whenever the girls are on vacation. :D ( ... )

is it bad that as I was reading Claudia's chapter, the song Too Old for Me by Jerome started playing?

The whole thing with Guy is giving me the squicks really bad.

his book never does make it clear that there'd be a HUGE problem if a man at least 25 years old had a crush on a child. Only once does anyone eeven suggest that maybe he's too old, and it's who you'd least expect.
-none of the books ever did and it was sickening. makes me honestly wonder how much more whacked Ann really was if she thought this was okay to write about.

Love the snark!

Why did I ever think she was one of my best friends? -So this can't be forgiven, but Dawn being a total twat about a fucking haircut is perfectly fine?!

This series should have had a lot more cat fights. There's so many times when the girls are horrible to each other, they should of ended up in fists being thrown.

You are hilarious. I only get on LJ to read bsc snark, so I'm kind of a noob, and only realized yesterday there are recent entries(I've been perusing all the ones from like, 2009 and shit) and that I could comment. Anyhoo, pls keep going. I look forward to the last installment.
