for one of the most hilariously purple passages I've ever read!
-
That's just... gleefully awful.

Brain go smush.

FWIW, the author, Ron Miller, is described on Amazon as "unfairly talented" by none other than Sir Arthur C. Clarke.
-
This totally needs a NSFW tag. Because, seriously, how do you explain laughing until you cry when you should be working?
-
Oh my, that is the very same book I picked up once in the bookstore and put back after reading a few paragraphs. I'm glad I wasn't those particular pages but the names are vaguely familiar. As is the sentiment.
-
You broke my brain. Why you break my brain?
-
Owww!. Just damn, and OWWWW!. What the heck. If you want bad porn go rent it, sheesh. That stuff will give you a disease just reading it. Ack.
-
Yeah. An asocial disease. :D

I work at a cologne and perfume factory, so I have to ask: How exactly does one have the "fragrance of a Gibbous moon"?

Maybe she smells like green cheese? Not exactly a turn on if you ask me.
-
Oh man, you know what that reminded me of? The Eye of Argon.
Now excuse me while I go bleach my brain.

Maybe the folks who are making those "Eau de Star Trek" fragrances could do something with that.

Perhaps synesthesia? "A neurological condition in which the brain interprets one set of sensory input in terms of a different one; i.e., 'smelling' shapes, 'tasting' sounds, 'seeing' scents, etc."
It would certainly explain the... florid... prose of the rest of the exerpt. However, given that many cases of the phenomenon are almost as unique as handwriting, we still don't know what a "Gibbous moon" would smell like. Though a highly unpleasant image involving a man named Gibb is fighting its way into my conscious thoughts, despite my fervent resistance... :D

Can't certain narcotics produce a similar effect? Maybe he was just trippin' b@llz...

Well, not my preferred literary mode, but hey it worked for Lewis Carrol :P

Nonsense. Everything Carrol wrote was quite meaningful.

Im sure it was (though i feel much of what people that meaning was is pure hogwash), but that doesnt exclude much of it from being drug induced influenced.

Oh dear God...

Hurk~!

Initially I thought it said "Gibbons Moon". Wow, she smells like a monkey house?
And he actually describes "Her Pubes"? Contact Harlequin we got us a romantic over here.
HAHAHAHA!

There are links on there to drawings of what she would look like with the descriptions. It was something like 3 or 4 drawings to even try to get all of em.

Oh how I lol'd.
By the way, I saw this thread and thought some of you would appreciate "How to write slash like a kid!"/ Please let me know if I've posted this in the wrong place though.
**Mini-warning: I think it's about the same level of NSFW as the previous link, but the author intended to be very tongue-in-cheek**
