he's probably over 17 years old, why would he read it now?

(yes, i read them multiple times when i was a child. yes, i remember enough to 'get' most of the tortured references. no, the posts with these refs are not very enlightening, informative, or even interesting to read, so i would not bother to read the silly books just to decode these mutterings.)

thank dog they claim they aren't making any more of this drivel into movies, maybe it will fade back into the pop cultural background with the other pimple-faced 'literature' like star trek.
