[ oh my god so much hatred for a book what is even going on ]

Isn't this going a bit too far?

text, permanon

[5055034455]

In the eyes of some, sure, probably.

[dragony]

Well, this isn't suspicious at all.

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

What's suspicious about it?

It's all spelled out right there on the invitation.

[textualhealing]

Count me in! :D

Your RSVP is appreciated. :)

[ Okay, Carl has been hearing about this book. While Carl doesn't know anything about Walter White and doesn't really care, he can't help but wonder why everyone is upset. Chilton wrote a book about another imPort, that's all, right? ]

What's wrong with the book?

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

It's not so much the book as it is the subject.

Some of us would rather his memory not be immortalized in a best-seller.

[mightthinkthat]

Popular book. I hope, one day, my biography would incite similar passion. I doubt it, though.

[5055034455]

No, my friend, you do not.

[rathercommon]

All right even if you don't like this thing, there's nothing remotely all right with BURNING BOOKS. REALLY.

text, permanon

[5055034455]

You're right. It's not the most environmentally friendly option, what with all that smoke and rising concern for the state of our ozone layer, but I feel like this is the most effective way to make a point.

Although now that you mention it, it could be a new-fashioned book burning: dissolve them in acid. Ironic and safer for our Mother Earth!

[Voice]

[wizzardly]

You can't be serious! What have those poor books ever done to you?

[text, permanon]

[5055034455]

Again: Not the books. The subject.

Now I know it's not fair to take out my feelings on the poor books, but sometimes, sacrifices have to be made.

Rest assured the ashes will be used as compost and eventually donated to local farms.

[So Saul and Skye might not be on the greatest terms, but she can be heard bursting out into laughter from her room.]

Oh my god. That is amazing.

text, still anon even though he figures she's hacked in by now

[5055034455]

Thank you, thank you.

You cannot kill an idea.

[textualhealing]

[WHISPERED.] But they could kill an author.

[mathemagier]

While I was prepared to voice my vehement protests against such a terrible practice, I'll withdraw them so long as that's the only victim.

[5055034455]

Now that's the spirit!

[missleadingquestions]

you mean the book from the last report?

TEXT, permanon

[5055034455]

Indeed I do.

[cleptes]

[Is it bad that Bela is tickled by this?]

So, what exactly did Chilton do to deserve this, anon?

I'm curious.

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

Published it.

text.

[glowsferatu]

is it really that bad
we havent even been given a chance to read it yet

text, permanon.

[5055034455]

That's your call. As far as I'm concerned? Making money off of people's deaths is kind of messed up.

[infomodder]

[Wow this is awkward as all get out. Burning and Frederick Chilton's name so close together is just...ah...good times...except not...]

Is putting them through shredders considered too much effort?

text, private;

[5055034455]

But does that really convey same message?

[Hi, Will!]

[ Gansey has no idea who you are, or in fact who this Chilton is. None of that matters at all. ]

You can't actually be serious? You can't burn books! That's appalling. Just because this world can't let go of the Cold War doesn't mean you have to encourage them. Jesus Christ.

text, permanon

[5055034455]

Don't get your knickers in such a twist. This has nothing to do with the Cold War. This is personal.

voice;

[angelfire]

I'd just like to point out that the invitation to book burn is not, for once, inspired by me this time. I'm not the anon that you're looking for.

That said, you couldn't ask for better publicity. Good job.

Thanks, Satan.

[itistolaugh]

wait ok so why do we hate a book?
i mean im still going to show since theres snacks just wondering

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

It's not the book we hate. It's the subject and the fact that the author's decided to put him on a money-making pedestal.

text;

[flowerette]

No matter the message you're trying to send, you're still buying the books and supporting the author.

[ And in turn, her. So go right ahead with your book burning, sir. Doesn't matter what happens to Chilton's books as long as they sell. ]

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

Because money is what keeps people safe, right?

text;

[itstheirworld]

[okay. part of her could care less, but with book burning being such a dumb, dated ritual she's just a little bit curious now of why there is even an event for it and everything.]

why burn that particular book?

text, permanon;

[5055034455]

Let me chuck a hypothetical situation at you:

Say you know this guy. This guy turns out to be a maniac. This guy tries to kill you, this guy kills your friends, this guy has no regard for anything outside of himself. Someone else comes along, becomes this guy's "doctor" — a title which, I'm sure you know, implies help and healing — and, in the end, publishes a book about this guy. The doctor makes money off of all the crimes his patient's committed, and the public goes on thinking the doctor is actually good at his job because of the analysis he's presented.

It's not just me who thinks that's wrong, is it?
