Yeah, well, either my life sucked incredibly badly or the only one who can do justice to cube-world is freakin’ Dilbert.

I brought it back to the library after two days (page 75-ish), because I couldn’t even stand to look at it. Let me know if you change your mind about it

Many children’s books are written in second person plural, for example, Dr Seuss’ “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!”

We did this. We thought that. But I could be wrong. We’ll have to get Peabo, the English teacher in here to make an official ruling.

Have you ever read “Orientation” by Daniel Orozoco? That’s what Then We Came to the End should be, could be if it were good.

You can listen to Orientation over at This American Life (fast forward to the last act).
