What would you do? A dilemma. 13:35 - Jan 29 with 2395 viewsfooters

You're at work when someone sends you an Amazon link to another colleague's awful self-published book. You don't particularly like the person who authored the book, so do you:

a) Be dignified and don't read any of it.
b) Only read the preview pages for a bit of a laugh.
c) Buy it and read it in full for even more of a laugh.
d) Buy it, read it and start selectively quoting it in meetings.

This moral decision is tearing me apart, Lisa. I would ring up Radio Four for help but I think they've bigger fish to fry.

Thank you for your advice.

Sounds like a link that could have, completely unbeknownst to you, have ended up in your junk mail.

Wonder how I'll shoehorn some of this stuff in...

"I want to ingest as much of her bodily fluids as possible."

"It feels like I'm being fellated by a cheesegrater."

"Even when I'm with a woman I end up tossing myself off."

Edit: To make clear, this person is paid to write.

Not as far as I can tell. He does like Warhammer though and is apparently writing a book about incels as we speak.

The review should of course say something like

“The author is probably one of those Nerdy Warhammer playing virgins that gets overexcited by a BooHoo advert for ladies short shorts.”

Definitely D: always maintain a straight face and feign ignorance of the existence of the book though.

When I was courting Mrs Badger, she was also being pursued by a slightly iffy bloke who was self-publishing. Naturally, we shared the 'best bits of it far and wide as he'd sent it to he in an effort to prove he was a more cultured man than the scruffy article from Suffolk she ended up with.

In certain company the phrase 'Amy! Oh Amy! Cause of a thousand sleepless, sweaty nights!' is code for any kind of loosely thinly veiled yet piss poor attempt at seduction.

Mrs Badger is currently taking a creative writing course and reports that this is even worse than some of her classmates' stuff that she's being asked to critique.

I'm now reading it as his autobiography and it's all starting to make sense. Again, I must stress that he is someone who is paid to write for a living.
