These guys are the absolute best.

I think it's implying that he used 80s pop culture as an escape. You have no idea what you're talking about, because you haven't read it, but in the book it is presented as having been a "more innocent time" from the perspective of the world the book takes place in, not in relation to the real world in the present

Same.

They're probably the Sixers, which are basically an army of users in the Oasis that are employed by this evil mega-corporation to hunt down the clues to win the contest which forms the central plot of the book. Whoever gets to the end of the scavenger hunt inside the Oasis first wins and gets control of the Oasis, and

It seems crazy to say, but compared to the world the book takes place in, actually it is.

Yeah a crossover would technically be possible but it would also render whoever appears in it death-proof for the foreseeable future considering FTWD takes place in the earlier in the timeline compared to where TWD currently is.

The actual line of the episode was, in fact, "I'm not going to have my vagibrary underground railroaded by this."

I've never wanted anything more than I want this to happen right now.

And then, when the reader is a little older, Michael Ende's The Neverending Story. I was obsessed with that book in fifth grade.

The Phantom Tollbooth is one of the greatest children's novels ever written. I first read it back in fourth grade and it's remained dear to me even now at age 26. It's definitely going to be something I read to my own kids one day as well. Excellent choice, Noel!
