For serious. I can see why people went WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, BITCH when the guy wrote it. I am X_X right now. I need a shower. With bleach and sandpaper.

Who the fuck writes a line like This is all very interesting, and I daresay you see me already frothing at the mouth in a fit; but no, I am not; I am just winking happy thoughts into my little tiddle cup.

And then later he talks about how the tiddle cup is full.

Because he's been talking about LITTLE GIRLS.

I mean I get the book is ultimately saying "pedophilia bad" but it's still traumatic to read.

It's also hard to appreciate the famed language of this book when you're squicked. I'm just saying.

Then again, we all know my stance on the literature section of the bookstore.

Oh, the book, for those that haven't already figured it out, is Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov.

Ahahaha, then watch Jeremy Irons in the movie adaptation and see if that doesn't fuck up your perceptions more.

It's too much to request that you box yourself up, isn't it? *tackles*
