    There’s a special place in hell for people who ruin a book for a meme.

    Is basically the same place where the deep-shit who burned books are roasted inside boilers. But you just stay outside, tied to a confortable door watching them burn from porthole of the hatch. Then once in a while a big green like button lit up and a steam of vapor boils your face.

    Sometimes when I do this, I imagine an archaeologist finding my book millennia from now and surmising my diet from the accidental smears.

    “We have found that Canadians circa 2000-2050 enjoyed a diet that included tangerines and microwave burritos”
