And yet you read it. Probably despite hearing from everyone that it was crap.
Then again, it has a niche with the teenage market... End result: I'll never read or watch it 'cos people's description of it is something that I wouldn't like. But then, I didn't like David Eddings books yet he's a major Author. Twilight, despite all the haters, really does have a massive following of fans so the Author has evidently done something right with her writing rather than something wrong.
I'm sure people could pick Flipside appart, claiming it just fan-service with all the sexuality or simply aims to keep attention with culture shocks such as Mary with the Child's leg or Maytag's eaten arm. They could argue all they like about this world of characters, seemingly revolving around Maytag as a Mary Sue with adultery taped in for the sake of a flaw. They could argue that it's simply a political soap box for libertarian views.
All Brion needs to retort with is his 40,000 unique views per day.
@Deatzh: Yeah, that facebook upload feature is crud. I've also seen editorial errors in a few books I've purchased recently. Mostly from Raymond E. Feist. Now I can understand errors like that when you're just writing like mad. Heck, my own posts are full of 'em. But thats what editors are for and why the hell are these people getting paid if they can't pick up simple stuff? I remember he even accidentally called a Dwarf an Elf at one point. Not a problem, people get frazzled and leave a thing or two in their own work as they half-skip past parts since they know it back the front. BUT EDITORS SHOULD BE EARNING THEIR FLAMIN' PAY AND PICKING IT UP!
