"a kind of paper that already looks guilty"
- onraglanroad 5mo agoI like that line. The kind of cheap floozy paper that suggests something bad has been written on it, even when it's perfectly innocent.
- npinsker 5mo agoThat’s not looking “guilty” though. Paper cannot be guilty, only humans.
- vintagedave 5mo agoOf course it can. That's writing.
- scubbo 5mo agoThere are plenty of valid criticisms of the article, but this isn't one of them. I'd be embarrassed to call myself a fan of Pratchett while failing to recognize dramatic anthropomorphization (indeed, Pratchett was where teenaged-me first learned the word)
