JoshJasper commented on Science Fiction Writers Bust Out Of Lambda Scifi Category

"Jeff-Minor, if you really want sex that badly, convincing women to read Dune in order to control you with sex is probably not the best way to get it.

JoshJasper commented on Inside the City of Insect Motors and Mushroom People

"Unless you've got at least decent knowledge of genre history, saying that new names for genres is not worth it is sort of like noisy tourists in a modern art museum complaining that this whole Cubism thing is just icky, and why not just call it all "art"? Arguing over the definition of slipstream though, is going to fall to people who're publishing anthologies of what they think it is, or people who're in some way involved in classifying the genre - critics, essayists, and John Clute, who gets his own zip code in the genre hierarchy. Am I getting this whole Gawker style cattiness thing right?"
