Lacking In Coverage Of The Surrealstic


Reading yesterdays morning edition of Tageblatt hoping to find coverage of the woman who attempted to drown her sorrows in a wastebasket of Harlequin Romance fan fiction based on the adventurous life of the murderous Edward Teach, that nefarious pirate who captained the Queen Anne's Revenge and grew his beard to be thick and fearsome in order to strike fear in the hearts of his enemies but has now been re-invented as a dashing romantic lead with a humorous nature which appeals to both fans of the dashing heroic type and serial murderers, of which women comprise a huge percentage (upwards of 90%, I understand), and being sadly disappointed in the lack of even a small, one paragraph mention that forces me to consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, having an interest in esoteric psychotic suicide attempts is probably not something the editors of heavily subsidized Luxembourgian newspapers share in or care to give coverage to considering the limited page count of the aforementioned zeitung ("zeitung" being Luxembourgian for newspaper - see, you learned something new today).

Oh well, maybe there's something about it in The Sun.
