I understand / I don't understand

[elfs]

Okay, I understand that Furry isn't for everyone. I get that. I get that homosexuality still makes some people go "ick." So the Orangina Puma ad would definitely not float someone's boat.

I don't understand why Tor Books gave someone primo editorial space to whine about it.

I'm glad the commenters at that link are echoing your bafflement. Truly, he doth protest too much.

hahaha. He's a zombie writer and he's protesting furries? WTF?

Sexy zombies would surely be the ultimate taboo. He's just jealous because he doesn't dare. ;-)

Because sometimes you have to find something to fit the newshole in a hurry.

Anybody who says that Aliens doesn't hold up well is someone I have no time for. He's raving when he says it doesn't. It holds up better than 99% of the movies made within 5 years of it.

Even worse, he states that not only does it not hold up (to each their own, I guess), but that 3 and 4 were better movies, at which point the express train to crazyland has not just departed the station but is well on the way to arrival at the end of the line.
