This woman should parp herself!

[monkeytrousers]

parp!parp!parp!FGS!!

Skerriesmum, I too was totally appalled to see the brilliant Michael Chabon sticking out of Ayelet Waldman's "prose" like a jewel on a midden.
Yes OK, the man does unfortunately look like a petrified wally adulterer but he did give the world The Wonder Boys and the mighty Kavalier and Clay. Bad taste in women though. Her novel sounds unreadable. Switch to the Telegraph ladies, where this sort of writing is quite correctly shunned

Stupid bint.

PMSL at the pic of her in her dungers.

Yes, I read this with amazement.
I can understand the idea of still fancying your husband even though you?ve got children....but would she really put him before her kids?
I mean, I love my DH and I also love being alive myself, but I would die to save the children in a heartbeat. Not to save him tho (sorry DH!)
(Great posts on here btw. PMSL at Aloha's about the bread! )

PMSL at this.

Thanks for this thread.
It's the first time I've done proper laughing in weeks.
Aloha and sobernow's posts had me rolling around clutching my sides (and having to hold my pelvic floors very tightly ).

didn't read all of the article - too boring!, but I thought how sad for her. I love dh very much, but I'd die without hesitation for my kids and it feels like nothing else on earth. If this woman hasn't got this feeling she's missing out.

Daft woman should realise that they will always be her children, but he might not always be her husband! Blood is thicker than water which is one of the reasons why you live your kids more than their Dad.

love this thread

pmsl...saw this at the weekend and just knew there would be a thread here about it.
'...whose broard shoulders, long, curly hair, strong back, plump lips, higharched feet and full, round bottom still, 12 years after we first met, make my toes curl with desire....'

yeeuuck! (vommin emoticon)

high arched feet!?!!
did she really say high arched feet
Wtf?....
never parped before....
but.....

Parp parpity parp parp!

... plump lips ... makes me want to spew ...

Somebody once called it Washing your Clean Linen in Public. Well-recognised prelude to infidelity, abandonment and bitter divorce, c.f. the Curse of Hello Magazine.

The piece is a love letter to herself more than anything, though she does protest too much. And I hate people who fold over the pages of novels.

What's the Grauniad coming to? Can anyone explain?

i was reading it last night in the bath and had to laugh when se said he makes her 'toes curl with desire.' And she calls herself a great writer!

lol. Yes, she is rather mixing her metaphors

My toes curled reading her article that's for sure.

priceless

As a result of this thread I seem to have become unhealthily interested in this woman , and came across this rather long article about her. There's also quite a funny piss-take of her, but it's rather full of sexual references so don't read if easily offended!

JackieNo, CLASS!! ROFLMAO - love the second link. snort

LMAO at te second link. The woman is obviously known for her strange obsesion!

FFS, if anyone wants a shortarse who writes badly I would be delighted to oblige.

She is mad mad mad, isn't she; it's quite reassuring, really, if you don't ahem spend your time obsessing about your partner's fabulous feet.

men's feet, on the whole, are revolting

Scan read the first article, she is a right nut job isn't she?
