    I'm so interested in the "random selection" passage. Point? Counterpoint? Irony? Literalism? WTF?

    Either way, I feel compelled to say that I am never dull or unpleasant. As proof, each night, at bedtime, I deconstruct all of the victimhood in my children's stories.

    Not.

    Aren't those male roles? That book is subverting traditional American family values!
