Between [livejournal.com profile] naamah_darling and [livejournal.com profile] ms_daisy_cutter, I'm swearing more, and more floridly, than ever before.

For example: in a recent conversation, I referred to someone as "that walking polyp shat from the colon of a leprotic demon".

In fairness, I was talking about Tim LaHaye, right-wing godbag preacher and author of the "Left Behind" series of toilet paper.

But still...

If it was actually GOOD, it might be forgiveable. Like, some people forgive Orson Scott Card some of his asshattery because they think he writes good fiction. (I disagree, mind you; I can think of several writers who surpass his skill, such as Danielle Steele, Dean Koontz, and Laurell K. Hamilton.)

But it's utter tripe.

It was kind of interesting since, going into it, I had no idea what was going on since my biblical knowledge is fairly limited, but once it was clear the direction the book was taking, it got really preachy and annoying. You were rooting for the main characters to NOT convert, LOL!

Sometimes I used to enjoy taking bad Harlequin romance novels and rewriting them so that the heroine, instead of falling for the muscular and forceful hero who "ravishes" her, presses charges or else stabs him in the chest with a salad fork and then becomes a mercenary.

Now THAT's a plot twist I could sign up for.

"Feeling a bit numb down there dear? Well, let's just say those aren't olives in your martini"
