Put some lime in that shit.

I read the first hundred pages of The Road last year, and read the first hundred pages of Blood Meridian this year, and in both instances, gave up, because the books never clicked. Lyrical writing, but the characters are reduced to way down Maslow's hierarchy, and the tone is so relentlessly bleak, with almost no humanity breaking through, it was difficult to feel anything besides the flint clicking against the cold steel in the overwhelming darkness. I know many of you love it, but to me, it's overwrought, overstylized, and overhyped.




So funny that there was an entire videogame based around the concept of “what if uncle fester had a gun”






We need to get to the bottom of where all the Pibb Zero has gone. They got me addicted and pulled it off the shelves.
