I'm outraged!
It has been overtly implied that the post on SPIN.com's book club forum titled
"Paris Hilton and Carmen Electra At Pillow War Game!" has little to do with Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut. Now I've heard some pretty ignorant things in my day, but please-- aren't all wars in today's nuclear climate just pillow fights in which vapid painted charicatures of politicians expose the undies of one another while trying not to break a nail? And the fact that the femme retails are AT the pillow war game leaves some ambiguity as to who is doing the warring or gaming as it may be. Please! These pageant crowns are too powerful to actually get their boots mucky, or feathery-- they have red telephones and blackberries and advance model iphones to summon their legions of pillow-wielding soldiers to the battlefield sleep-over, AT which they attend from afar.
I mean it's pretty obvious that this is the basis of Vonnegut's exploration into the basis of organized religion in government and is a direct allegory for his microcosmic study of the subject.
Just one loose end...
what, in fact, is "Squirting on the camera"?

Fck,thats funny.
On the Kisschasy forum we get a lot
worse then "squirting on the camera",so to speak.
But the upside,I guess,is we don't have to face any wars.
More...panty pulling.
Haha.

"Maybe a saint is just a dead prick with a good publicist."
Your writing is amazing.
I just hope you aren't talking about yourself. Because as true as that is, it's not you.
I need to send this before I change my mind...

Perhaps the next club selection should be articles from US Weekly and Star. What literary insights can possibly be offered by the likes of Vonnegut and Miller that cannot be matched by articles accompanying photos that point to baby bumps and troubling body language? Just a suggestion. Oh, and to clarify: sometimes when a woman has a great love for money and attention, as well as an uncommon sexual ability, she's able to, well, make a bit of a mess....
Three cheers for the pornbot.
I would really rather not think about what precisely "squirting the camera" entails.
I swear I'll join the discussion once it gets around to a book I've read/have access to. D=
You need to stop writing. You're making the rest of us aspiring writers look bad.
...kidding, of course.
I joined in the discussion....not on the sexual escapades of the vaguely famous, but on the book. However I seem to be the only one at the moment who would like to trade Vonnegutesque ponderings.
SPIN is working on fixing this little issue and should soon be implementing a porn-free discussion forum in the near future.
Meanwhile everyone should read the book Colin from Circa Survive picked for the next month. May your head explode with as much force as Shawn's did when you read it...
1. yay! The bunnies are back.
2. This entry is gold (you'll have for forgive me for not elaborating. It's 3:45 am).
3. Regarding that disturbing loose end, I'm inspired to post the review I read of Decomposer back in September where they mistook the meaning of Shoot Me in the Smile for...something else.
Amazing how connections can be created between two things so very different and unequal in credability. pillow fights.......creates a rather vivid visual which i am not entirely sure i wish to see. "squirting on the camera" interesting indeed.
Hey it's Peter from SPIN...some of you might know me as the Yoda looking fella from Shawn's Book Club video. Thanks for the tips on moisturizer...my skin tone has never been better.
I'm sorry about all the porn spam on our message boards. We've been trying to fix it for some time, with little success. Thanks for your patience.

that would be your initials.

Well I just went and posted a complete (or is it?!) non porn oriented post on the SPIN forum.
Peter, I'm glad you took my advice. You were really starting to turn green man. Hahaha.
I'll be going around SPIN anyway, if anything the porn ads are a little amusing.
Vic

happy birthday!
I just have to say Shaun that i enjoy reading your blogs seeing as how I feel that at the end of each of them I am gaining some sort of intelligence as opposed to becoming dumber afterwards. So for that, I thank you =)
happy birthday shawn!
ShaWn actually.
oh and...Happy Birthday Shawn.
I'm just adding to the deluge of birthday wishes. So, Happy Birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
may your organs fail before your dreams fail you.
can't wait to see you and the rest of the guys next month at warped!
Dang..
Want to start proof reading my journalism assignments?
Wow.
The people posting these things on SPIN seem to be very competant.
This is really an excuse for me to say- Happy birthday!
Happy b-day, Shawn!
I haven't been on the SPIN forums, so you totally lost me, but that's OK.
squirting on the camera. um...ew???
The way you write/type/talk is so funny to me
Funny in that "Goodness me, he sounds so smart!"
Oh, and before I forget;
Happy, Happy Birthday to you
Congrats on being a year older haha
I have to agree with you on all of the above!
Though I'm not sure I want to know what in fact "squirting on the camera" would intel and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
I say they just lock her up for good and throw away the key! their letting her free on tuseday..... *rolls eyes*

It's caricatures.
Paris Hilton is what happens when you starve yourself and your body eats your boobs.
Deeply unfortunate.
"Paris Hilton is what happens when you starve yourself and your body eats your boobs."
aaahaha
Stop signs are Red, Ice Cubes are Blue,
i ran out of rhymes...
so happy birthday to you!
ps... why are violet's said to be blue? the very name "violet" implies that they are a shade of purple... someone needs to change that poem...

haha
a great philosopher once said
"laundromats are for people who cannot afford washing machines."

I think I read that 'a great philosopher-paris hilton' thingy in Spin.
