... is something I am always searching for, and do occasionally find.
I don't care much for the form... though I guess novels are more my cup of tea. But really, short stories are great as well. Anyway, on to my first rant in like six months.
I hate it when people beat up books without actually reading the story first. There is nothing I can think of that festers in me more than the hate that I feel when some one does this. All I want to do is yell "@$#% YOU, YOU LAZY PREBIASED JERK"!!!
This of course is not an acceptable response for any occasion, especially in public and in mixed company. Still, it irks me to no great end that people do this. If you haven't bothered reading the story, getting a feel for the characters and really looked at the plot, you have no right to say anything negative about it.
On that note, I am a man and I may read whatever I so please. If you don't really like what I'm reading then you're welcome to tell me so and tell me why. If the book covers a topic you are not comfortable with or disagree with or even think is down right silly, that's your right. You don't have to read anything you don't want to. Personally, I really don't care. But please, never try and make me feel bad for deciding to read anything. Insulting me because of something I'm reading, is an easy way to get under my skin and that is something I really sugest you don't do.
