Fantasy (Precious Little Else)

[jheti]

About once every ninety days, I make it up to the library in the city to see what they have for sale.

I have a military fantasy, a historical* fantasy, a pair of urban fantasies, a fantasy classic, four 'standard' fantasy novels, one of those 'woman warrior' books, a novelization of a fantasy movie, and a horror-parody that somehow got lumped in with the others.

I also have Charles Darwin, and FINALLY my own copy of Othello.



*THAT SHIT IS NOT VALID AMERICAN ENGLISH.

MAYBE IN BRITLANDIA, BUT I DOUBT IT. THEY ARE EVEN STRICTER ABOUT THIS SHIT THAN WE ARE.

SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK. FUCKING "AN HISTORIC."

I WANT TO BEAT YOUR FACE IN EVERY TIME YOU TYPE THAT.

WITH AN SPATULA.

SEE? SEE HOW FUCKING RIDICULOUS THAT IS?

"H" IS NOT A MOTHERFUCKING VOWEL.

*Seethe seethe puff hiss splutter glare of RAGE.*

Seriously, bitches. With an spatula. I will do it.

Hmm. My Shift key sticks now. XD

I think "an historic" is a Britishism more than anything. Also a plague of people who want to sound uppity.

I hate it, too. Definitely not proper American English.

It just looks idiotic. There are six possible vowels in English, and h is not one of them, and when people mangle this, I want to mangle them. Er.

I get sick of the notion that American English is lesser. Quick, somebody inform Mr. Clemens! While you're at it, ask Mr. Bradbury to stop using all contractions immediately, and tell Mr. Faulkner to start breaking out the proper u's.

Really. -_-;

tl;dr I agree with you.

*Presents you with an spatula.* Come, let us defend the language! ^_^
