Did Blue Squares and Mel have a fight I missed or something? It seems weird that those two would get connected for whatever.

They're both book barn weirdos, which is where Mel got the avatar. You can tell because the text is an allusion to noted world of literature Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret. by Judy Blume.

It's a 2 part, 1963 paperback re-print of David Magarshack's 1958 translation. I paid about $6 total at a used book store. Do I win the Douche contest yet?

That's fine, I just find WWI to be the intellectual maturation point of Western culture and that everything written before it is painfully juvenile

Do The Mare. I took a class from Mary Gaitskill and she is one of the coolest people I've ever met. She's got a huge love of Vladimir Nabokov, so she still counts as a real writer since she has a "Russian" influence.

To my eternal shame I haven't read any of her books yet. I didn't want to be too starstruck when I took the class, so I avoided her work. I did watch The Secretary when I was 13 though.
