# I just read that interview by the guy writing the HHG book.
I don't care how he replied to the stupid questions, but whenever anyone asked him a proper question the reply was either "I did my best" or horridly patronising.

# the guy came over as a total cunt.
The best he could do was take the piss out of the spelling in the questions. Fuck him and his books.

# To be fair, most of the questions were cuntish too.
I just thought that when a proper one came along he would grasp the chance to try and explain the book.

# Which one was that? The interview had no names, and cross referencing is too much trouble.

# Something like "I don't know about you but I think the main objective when setting b3ta interview questions is to make the interviewee regret agreeing to do it"
To which he replied something about me overestimating myself.

# HT's sensible question about meddling with another author's characters was met with "Well, you've already made your mind up" or something.
I don't think he gained many booksales with that interview.

# You could read it and dismiss it as a money-grabbing grave-pissing abomination
Or you could skip the reading part and save yourself a few quid.

# But then I wouldn't be able to complain about it in an informed manner.
And the hardcore fans of the Artehoweverit'sspelledmis Fowl books would be all stuck up.
