apocalypsos: (boo books)
[personal profile] apocalypsos
The conversation I just had with my mother, and you have to imagine me saying all of this through sheepish laughter:

Me: Oh, it's so bad.
Mom: (disappointed) Really?
Me: It's not even a first book, and ... and the passive voice, and the excessive use of epithets ...
Mom: (lost) Oh ...
Me: I swear, it's not you, it's me. I'm anal and elitist.

And also:

Me: Mom, think of it this way. If I took you to a miniature golf tournament played by middle-schoolers, would you like it?
Mom: Probably not.
Me: Exactly.

You know what really pokes my tomatoes?

Those people who hate DVC because it's "Destroying Christianity, OMG!" 'Cause you know what? Jesus's babies, if they even EXIST, hurt exactly nothing and no one, but bad writing hurts EVERYONE IN THE UNIVERSE!

Hate DVC for the right reasons, folks.
