I mean, seriously, A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity?! Almost sounds like he's hiring himself out for escort services.

1. I'd just call it false advertising.
The man has neither boldness nor a piece of humanity.

From what I've heard he does get pretty fresh now and then though.

5. i saw it in a book store a couple of weeks ago
the title and the cover cracked me up.. not to mention that it's such an egotistical title regardless of the perviness of it.


:rofl:

6. Supposedly, that's what some elementary school nun called him.
I heard him explain it on some interview somewhere. The guy's still a megalomaniacal jerk.

14. Yup, nunspeak is the key.
I'm certain Sister would never approve of the loofah, either.

13. Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about his novel!
Maybe I should read it one of these days, just to see how laugh-out-loud awful it is.
