I've been watching someone hate-read Ready Player One on Facebook live and I can't believe that a) this book was published; b) this book was popular; and c) this book was made into a movie. Such unrelenting garbage.
@starbreaker The hate-read format is literally the only way I'm going to get through it. The reader is an appropriately angry feminist nerd, and her cries of outrage at both the content and the form make me feel like I'm not alone.
@vjgoh I don't need to hate-read it, since I've slogged through the entirety of Atlas Shrugged, but I just want nothing to do with Ernest Cline.
@starbreaker That's 10000% legit.
@starbreaker I only want to get through it—or some portion of it—because I have friends that like it, and literally every excerpt I've read has made me want to buy the book for the express purpose of throwing it into the sun.
@vjgoh Cline won't care if you chuck it into the sun after you bought it. Asshole gets paid either way. :)
@vjgoh Most RPO fans are as vile as the book is reputed to be (I haven't read it, and have no intention of doing so).
