    Fan fiction, even POORLY WRITTEN fan fiction: has the potential to become the great myth cycle of the future...

    Think about that, the next time you kvetch about someone's writing... Or embrace and condone the kind of content you wouldn't want to be used as a social model a thousand years from now: whatever that might be...

    There's only one religion that matters. The Cult of Nep-Nep.

    I was prepared to sigh and not laugh and leave this stupid thing alone.

    I failed.
