adults who read Harry Potter (not to their kids) really should get out more

I think he wasn't being smarmy about reading highbrow literature, he was saying there's better things to read than kids books about wizards.

# And so one must define "better" and "should"
I mean - I still read Viz. Should I be shot?

I watched The Princess Bride the other day, and genuinely enjoyed it. What of me now?

Is vis funny now? stopped being funny ages ago.

Nothing right with TPB - best awful film ever.

# Yeah well he was another one.
Worshipped by angry, impotent Western boys - of which I was one - blindly, adoringly, and unquestioningly. Which was somewhat ironic, given his discourse.
