Kinda cheating, but The Eye of Argon. is incredibly bad. People hold competitions with live readings to see how long someone can go without stopping to laugh.

You can love your sister, but you shouldn't love your sister.

I enjoy this podcast about terrible books: I Don't Even Own a Television

These are all fantastic, and I already see a few books in there that have been posted here too. Looks like I got stuff to listen to while commuting for a long while.

I can see this guy's corkboard with the yarn leading from the picture of her face to various things that he stalked her to find out about.

"Ah yesss I see you are a fan of *looks at stenography sheet* dance!! This has nothing to do with my book but I must take an aside to have you know that I have once brushed with the likes of Baryshnikov on the tokyo stage"

"uh huh (what is this what is going on i like jazz dancing)"

That's the best. He goes from not caring anything about dance besides pandering to her interests straight to condescending down to her about not enjoying the right kind of dance (e.g. the ones he deemed highbrow and intellectual enough after five minutes on Wikipedia) in an instant.

One thing I can say about his writing, though the blog post is meandering and overly verbose, it still manages to encapsulate what a creep he is pretty succinctly.

That's supposed to be a (good) jab at the Dresden files, right?

Can't be, it's written in the third person. All good (bad) Men's Adventure has to be first person.

This feels like it belongs here. Do yourself a favor and click through to the thread itself.

Seconding the recommendation on reading the thread. Turns out the book is free on Unlimited and they start live-tweeting it.
