I don’t think there’s a more scorned form of literature than the romance novel. “Bodice rippers,” “trashy books” or “that Harlequin crap” are some of the more charitable terms I’ve heard.

Twitter seems to me the biggest time sink since MMORPGs . . . with about the same amount of potential financial return per hour (about 40 cents).

Here’s a recent picture of the submitter:
$2.6 Million is Ridiculous . . . ridiculously low.
