MANGLE!

Ben: I'm so psyched to be let down.

Ben: You have no idea.

Me: You are a masochist.

Ben: I hope I do not have inflated expectation of how bad it is going to be.

Ben: I'd like to think that it is so bad that it is actually worse than I can even imagine.

Ben: A mind-expanding experience.

Me: The 2001: A Space Odyssey of bad endings.

Ben: My god, it's full of shit.

Me: Speaking of disappointing science fiction franchises.

Ben: 2002: A Space Illiad.

Me: Did you finish that book about old people yet?

Ben: I am on page

Ben: 60

Ben: of like 800.

Ben: That's not too bad!

Me: Did the plot start yet?

Ben: The main character is experiencing the onset of INSOMNIA.

Ben: Roll opening credits.

Me: Are you excited for Stephen King's treatise on abortion?

Ben: Oh god.

Ben: I figured this would just be a subplot.

Me: It is a running theme.

Ben: Is this book this ATLAS SHRUGGED of abortion?

Ben: That would be a good blurb for the back

Ben: regardless of its truth.

Ben: "The ATLAS SHRUGGED of abortion." ~ Richard

Me: Pretty sure I saw Blaine the Mono in the trailer.

Ben: For Dartower 1?

Me: For Atlas Shrugged.

Ben: The Atlas Shrugged/Dartower crossover.

Me: Every book is a subset of the Stephen King multiverse.

Ben: Including this Facebook conversation.

Me: Scorponok and Terrorsaur fall into Roland's world in book 6.

Ben: Honestly if I opened WOLVES OF THE CALLA to find that Susannah had been replaced by Scorponok I would be fucking psyched.

Ben: The Bulldozer King will reward me highly for this!
