my “Whyyyy stephenn???” List:
Bag of Bones 1998
Bag of Bones 1998
-referring to a child as being an exotic taste
-“Breasts”
-His classic racism towards Japanese people
-The way he mansplains what masturbation is
-Blue balling
-His sex scenes take me out
-The question of “did I rape the 5 year old?” In his sleep and wasn’t necessarily upset about it
-The list of all the things you can (and shouldn’t) call a black man
-At first screws his wife and then R’s her corpse in dreamland
-V.C. Andrews is regarded as his professional enemy (interesting)
-Mal-formed Dwarves might turn him on? Was that a joke? Why was that placed during a fantasy thought???
-He always has a tangent about fat people
-Women in need of help are to be sexualized completely.
-“Stroking”
-Just some other proof the main character is him: MC talks about naming the book he’s writing “bag of bones”.
-Regains a trust point: MC does not like black people being called bad words-although is this black people generally done or is it specific to the band he likes so much? So maybe not so much of a trust point.
-Over half way and he mentions something the little girl says sounds Vietnamese & exotic
-Whenever someone mentions how young the MC’s crush is, he imagines her in a vulgar way and seems to have an obsession with her being just above legal.
