Stephen King, Idiot

 Even Stephen King Thinks We're Living in a Stephen King Book | Vanity Fair

Is he totally off his rocker?

Why does it seem that people get famous in spite of being total idiots? Scratch a  celebrity, find a moron.

Stephen King used to be a famous horror writer, every book a best-seller. I have long suspected him of being a fat-head. Yesterday he proved it.

This is what he said:

“Mr. Putin has made a serious miscalculation. He forgot he’s no longer dealing with Trump.” (https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4041041/posts)

Aaaaaaahhh!

Yo, Steve-O! Didn’t you see what your hero Biden did in Afghanistan? Hint: fled in a panic! Who seriously thinks Russia would have invaded Ukraine if Donald Trump were still in the White House?

You and the “81 million” phantoms who supposedly elected this turnip.

America’s enemies, the world’s enemies, are on the move, they’re gonna scarf up smaller nations, because they know America is, uh… led… by a senile old wreck backed up by a bunch of gabbling ninnies–including some fat guy with a wig who calls himself a woman. Biden and Xi and the ayatollahs are gonna be afraid of that?

May God in His mercy defend us.

‘So How Do Bad Books Get Published?’ (2015)

Stephen King once bragged that he could get his laundry list published, if he wanted to–a singularly insensitive comment, given the heartache of so many struggling authors who can’t get published at all.

But the fact of the matter is that a lot of cow-flop does get published.

So How Do Bad Books Get Published?

This is fantastically frustrating to those who are still trying. We rack our brains over it: how does litter-ature like this wind up in print, and why in the world does anybody buy it?

Well, that’s what we’ve done to our culture, isn’t it?

‘Jules Verne vs. Stephen King’ (2013)

I know some of you don’t like Jules Verne, but I do. His 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea captivated me as a little boy and continues to be one of my all-time favorite novels.

I thought Stephen King was great, too, back in the 1970s. But I find it a trial to read him now. What’s the difference between these two authors?

I do get awful tired of Stephen King’s “the college guy is the real man–not those blue-collar oafs” schtick. Whatever made him put that into every book he ever wrote, like, dude–I don’t care.
