I was mentioning the Eye of Argon to Dave and Eve a little while back, so here are some links:

Read with caution.

The thing that really surprises me about this, er, narrative, when I think about it (which I try to avoid) is that it was written before the advent of the online thesaurus.

Just when I thought I'd finally forgotten about The Eye of Argon it somehow manages to reappear. I wonder who it was that first brought it to my attention? It's probably better if I don't remember :)

It might well have been borusa.

I've read it several times and once I start, I can't stop, it's so bad.

I can't read it. It's too depressing.

Aww, wow. It's good to see that again - and just after I was trying to explain its glory to Boyfriend, too.

Ah, the Eye of Argon. I believe there was once a game played at SF/F cons involving attempts to read as much of it as possible without laughing.

I'd not had the pleasure before. Glad I went for the MST one, I suspect I couldn't have coped with the whole thing otherwise.
