How else would you know your annual review is coming up? ;-)

I loathe him so much, which is silly because I've never met him. But to borrow from the greatest TV show in the history of human events (Malcolm In The Middle), when I see his face "all I hear is hit me, hit me, never stop hitting me".

Yep. Had a friend ask me when I was going to write a "real" book. Apparently paranormal chick lit and YA are holograms. They do not exist in real life.

I am so sorry.

I love you, Phil. You're my spirit animal. Because of the implication.

Lived in MN for years, moved to Boston, and on a chilly sleeting December day the ice cream shop was having a BOGO sundae sale. Kept one for myself and tried to give one to the homeless guy pandhandling out front. "Jeez, are you crazy? Get outta here with that thing!" Beggars can't be choosers is a LIE.

"Tits McGee is on vacation!"

This is the most wonderful thing in the history of ever.

They say you are what you eat, AND IF SO I HAVEN'T CHANGED A BIT!

His hair. Was WHITE.

"Take me away from all this, like, death."

He couldn't wait, I'll bet. He's secretly proud of his collection because Edgy. He's probably always wanted to show videos to people he needs/respects. And now, out of the clouds of lying bimbos, the silver lining of getting to show higher-ups how aggressively cool he is. They'll see it and understand, they liked him…

"doused in Christianity" is my new favorite phrase. And I have the *weirdest* pictures in my head right now...

I agree; I didn't find it sexy, but she's definitely dazzling. I think it's that we're not used to seeing kids that young look so incredible. (I was a tomboy, and when I was that age I was basically one big scab, plus braids and a crooked smirk.) What I like best, though, is that her beauty is the least interesting…

Loved her gleeful bitchiness, like when she screwed up the traffic lights during lunch rush. I loved how playful she was about being terrible.

Noooo. Affable? No, you're right about that. I kept waiting for him to bite "Constantine" (Reeves maybe wasn't the best choice for that one). Like, on the face a la Hannibal Lector. Bite and hold the bite and really dig in while "Constantine" flailed and wanted a cigarette in the worst way. That entire scene was…

I think part of it is being able to enjoy the wealth and celebrity. This guy is printing money and is a demigod to a lot of readers; that's got to be heady. The average writer makes $5,000 a year and no one knows who they are except their mom. So while I'm wild for WoW to come out, part of me is pretty thrilled for…

Yes! I love the Cousins Wars, too, especially how the 3 York suns/sons pretty much devoured each other. Astonishing, even more so because it really happened.

I feel safer already! And by "safer" I mean "condescended to".

GOOD GOD. Writers are the worst. We are the worst. "Read all these pages I yanked out of my brain and love meeeeeeeee." We look so unhinged and pathetic when we indulge our unhinged pathetic inner infants. I've indulged in some of this crap myself. Never to Hale's extent, but I've been plenty bitchy online ("Please…
