What would you do? A dilemma. 13:35 - Jan 29 with 2386 views | footers | 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. |  |

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. [Post edited 29 Jan 2021 13:42]

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

Anyone got anything nice planned for the weekend? "I want to ingest as much of her bodily fluids as possible." How's the project going mate? "'Even when I'm with a woman I end up tossing myself off' a cliff" Struggling with this one but maybe... You ok mate? "I've got a banging headache, It feels like I'm being' or 'Feel ated (sic) by a cheesegrater'" |  | |  |

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.” |  | |  |
What would you do? A dilemma. on 14:01 - Jan 29 with 1470 views | BlueBadger | 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. "As the Kleenex falls apart around my cock, I'm not overly surprised my job has descended into this." |  |
