Literary Clusterfucks 2013

Explains all the Mormon vampires.

Weirdly explains 50 shades, too. Like some sort of crossover genre.

The soft light did not hide the obvious, which is to say your intense and masculine beauty. I just sort of gasped, and listened to the gentle come-and-go of your breath, and I wondered, again, how it was that I, of all the women in Albuquerque, got so lucky to have been found by you.

Magnificent.

xp This is news? As someone said on here recently, she has a very high words-to-ideas ratio.

By she, do you mean Valdes, James, or Meyer?

Valdes seems pretty sharp to me, despite eye-rolling crap like:

Alisa Valdes @MizAlisa
Ironic: When the same folks taking me to task for challenging extreme feminism try minimize my intellect with: "She just a romance writer".

Alisa Valdes @MizAlisa
A word to reassure my loved ones: I have thick skin, emotionally. The criticism was expected. I questioned feminism. Sacred cow. I'm fine!

if I start using the phrase "scared cow" will people get the joke or will they just think I'm dumb

Teardrops often remind me of children.

I associate both with dampness and screaming.

Ha. In what context, DJP?

teardrops keep fallin on my head
reminds me the child has probly wet the bed
he's such a little shit
those teardrops keep fallin on my head they keep fallin

Valdes. Sharp? This is ridic: "It would be a mistake for Manhattan publishing to simply roll their eyes at the "wacko evangelicals" in the "fly-over states" who are reading the new traditionalist fiction by the trainload."

"Manhattan publishing" is doing no such thing, they're making money off "bonnet books" and women's fiction directed at calming the fears of religious Middle America as fast as we, I mean they can. Points for strawmanning though.

Ha. In what context, DJP?

Maybe I'll start on Twitter, taking on the scared cows of our day

tbf they still may be rolling their eyes xp

YESSSS xpost

Orbit, we totally agree, but there are plenty of examples of intelligent people who are capable of writing well who churn out drivel and bad, lazy, reactionary ideas. *shrugs*

i admit in the midst of this rather dire thread i irl lold and sort of did a little celebration when i realized jonviachi was still engaged in fully defending himself against any and all race war accusations

If you had actually taken time to read the thread, you would've seen that I was not defending myself against any accusations, I was calling out Mordy for a needless personal attack. But considering you are one of ilx's bigger bullies as well, I don't expect much different from you.

^ racist warmonger

^ bullying asshole

lol

(sorry)

*bullies erica*

can't wait for 3.0

The Bully and the Race Warrior

kind of interesting that a thread about a situation where a person was constantly belittled and marginalized contains a bunch of posts where several posters belittle and marginalize another one

also gives some excellent examples for my point to in orbit about how easy it is for people to slip into being abusive with words

it is not at all interesting

can't wait for the bullying tag team of am0n and lag∞n to grow the fuck up.

*tags lag∞n*

oh jon

oh come on

I mean do you guys not seriously think you are pushing this thing a little too far? You think its okay to continue to needle me after I've explained several time that I don't find the "race war" shit acceptable in the least? Grow the fuck up.

its kind of interesting... how i was right all along

oh jon jon jon whatre we gonna do with you

i'm more puzzled as to why your bullshit is tolerated and i'm painted as the bad guy.

something to think about i guess

I've now transitioned from resisting the urge to poke at Mordy to wanting to poke at jon/via/chi 2.0.

It's nothing personal. There's just this compulsion, like in the red button gag.

I think this is the rush bullies feel when some red-faced kid is sputtering in indignation.

p sure 98% of this board wouldn't be satisfied until someone uploaded my suicide video to youtube.

poke away at me. i can take it. xp

ha jon you are being very dramatic

probably, but i'm sick of the fucking pile-on after i explicitly explain how tired i am of the goddamn "race war" bullshit. i wish the mods would sack up and do something about bullying on this board for once.

for me the thing thats funny about isnt how easy it is to send jon over the edge, its the absurdity of how easy it would be for him to end the race war, instead he fights on

i am totally ignorant of what race war means w/r/t jon so this is all kind of bizarre to me

can we get back to talking about how this woman is completely shameless

*searches for "race war" on ilx*

when is someone going to get a statement from penguin already?

um, sorry, we have got a non-literary clusterfuck thread just over there somewhere, do you guys mind?

Voltaire, eh, what a cunt, bet he was racist

i spent like an hour early this morning reading about her antics, which include claiming bisexuality for an afterellen interview and then denying it and blaming the person who interviewed her

i am totally ignorant of what race war means w/r/t jon so this is all kind of bizarre to me

i think k3v knows the true history of the race war meme
