I'd go so far as to say I think it's weird when people eat any amount of deviled eggs.
@[email protected] I was going to say more than 2 deviled eggs but you also make a good point haha
You live in an open society where everyone's views and opinions can be expressed without judgement.
Except for this one, you filthy animal!!
Says a delived egg loving beast!
But I respect your desire to eat the filthy fuckers. As long as it's in private, preferably in the closet of shame.
You are filth! You are garbage!! You are the lowest kind of scum that has ever polluted the face of the Earth! I want you to die slowly, but not too slowly because I want to be able to enjoy defiling your sister on your grave!!
Are we still on for Thursday? My Mom is making taco salad.
Big words from the walking dumpster full of nasty wastes of perfectly good eggs!
Oh hell yeah we are! Did she get those sick tortilla bowls again?
I have to go, but here's some books you might like.
If you like Neil Gaiman, look up Tanith Lee. Gaiman admits that she was his inspiration, and he stole a lot of his best ideas from her. "Night's Master" is about a demon prince who travels the world seducing and/or tormenting humans.
Alan Furst's "Night Soldiers" is a WW2 era spy story that reads like a cross between Ian Fleming and Franz Kafka. A young Bulgarian fisherman becomes radicalized after fascists curb stomp his kid brother. He travels to Moscow and becomes a KGB agent in the Spanish Civil War.
Colson Whitehead has two books about a 1960s Harlem fence. "Harlem Shuffle" and "The Crook Manifesto." Reading them is like hanging out in a smoky barroom listening to some OG's talking about life in the 1960s and 1970s.
Enjoy!
I'll add these authors to my reading list. Thanks for the recommendations!
