Devcat is spending time with extended family right now. After some intermittent hiccups, our web host moved us to a new server. With any luck, performance will improve.

That IS hilarious.
Many, many, many years ago I used to work for Powell’s Books, and I was the guy who tracked down volumes we didn’t have in the store. I can’t tell you how many conversations with customers started out something like,
“I”m looking for a mystery book. I can’t remember the title, but I think the authors name starts with an S? There’s a woman on the cover. Do you know it?”Report
If you know the guy, I have some requests and know the titles 🙂Report
There’s a Facebook group called “Adult Nerdfighters” where every once in a while someone posts, “I’m looking for a book or a short story, I can’t remember the name, but *blah* *foo* *bar*”
So far I’ve seen six of these posts, and twice I knew what the book or story was (the book was Craig Shaw Gardner’s Dragon Cycle trilogy and the story was one of Alan Dean Fosters’s)Report
I’d assumed Google had put an end to this phenomena. I have all kinds of books I half remembered from childhood but had no recollection of title or author that I was eventually able to find by googling the plot points.Report
North,
google can’t put an end to people deliberately erasing their work as part of the joke.Report
lolololol.Report
I’m sure that when the Elder Gods return, they’ll slay the book store employees first, as a demonstration of their gratitude for the prompt and friendly customer service.Report
“The Great Cthulu asked about another book. It’s about vampires in PNW. It’s called Dusk or something like that and has a chick in it. Do you have that one?”Report
What makes it truly funny is the Calvino…Report
If on a winter’s night a traveler is one of the first five books I always recommend when someone asks me if I know of any good modern literature.Report
mmmm, you need to correct that to “post modern,” @chrisReport
True, though I think by “modern” they mostly mean “recent”. Language sucks.Report
What’s a Cthulhu? Is he one of the soccer players?Report
