*pfft*
SOMETIMES,
THERE ARE NO WORDS.
It's best just to put down the flame-thrower, and just walk away. Times like those it's apparent that one is dealing with a madness far more sinister and fucked-up than any sane person could possibly anticipate.
I'm talking of course (heh) about STEPHENIE MEYER.
Demon Sue-thor Author of the "Twilight" series - who has recently released her "final" book for the series called Breaking Dawn. Reviewed here in The Washington Post.
APPARENTLY she likens her first novel (Twilight) to "Pride & Prejudice" and her brilliant characters to Lizzy Bennet and Mr. Darcy.
WTF?
Her second novel has elements of Shakespeare's "Romeo & Juliet"
O RLY?
And "Eclipse" has elements of Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights"
...
I'M SRS.
It's posted in a video on Amazon.com's "Breaking Dawn" order page. See it here.
I know this seems like crazy bitching, but I like books, and Good Books are like my best friends. So for me it burns. It's a minor thing and I promise to let it go (LIES ALL LIES!!!! I'M INSANE! I WILL TAKE THIS TO MY GRAVE!!)
It depresses me. So here's a page stolen borrowed from a funny web-comic called Head Trip, that I already posted at
green_amberjade 's blog, so sorry if you've seen it before, it still makes me chuckle. Also there's a comm called
whysofailsmeyer - *wuvs fans sumtiems*
In other new of Dickery By Morons, on NBC's website covering the Olympics in Beijing, they have a reference to the Chinese Womens' Gymnastics team where they say "they don't even look like they'd be in high school" - Oh America. (The US has been making allegations that China's team is under-age)
