I come up with the weirdest shit.

So I'm listening to my audiobook of Jane Strikes Back today at work, and I started thinking ... you know how there's the Bible Fight game?

I want an Author Fight game.

Wouldn't you love to see who could win if Oscar Wilde and his pimp cane went up against F. Scott Fitzgerald and a bottle of scotch? I think my favorite part of the whole game would be Hemingway's secret move in which he unleashes a flock of angry polydactyl attack cats at his opponent.

Where Harper Lee bitchsmacks Truman Capote with common sense. Or Dotty Parker rocks up and takes Oscar down with some pointed epigrams. I like the sound of this.

Agreed. Oscar Wilde FTW.

Whatever Thomas Pynchon does, you never see it coming.

Alas, F. Scott has a terrible near suicide attack. He can. At the last minute. When close to defeat: THROW THE SCOTCH.

It works on roughly 70% of his opponents, who are so distracted by the idea of liquor that they forget to attack him for one round while they are looking for the scotch....

Herman Mellville bitches. And his GIANT chapter about whales. The attack either puts people to sleep or causes gay sex. Either way he wins.
