Except, how do we know this one isn't BS as well?

Ugh. There goes 30 seconds of my life I'll never get back. Pass. The only person who could pull that off was Hunter S. Thompson, and he's dead.

i dunno how we can tell whether it's BS or not. unless we ask the author. at least the writing's better than Frey's. that book sucked.

This book is being marketed as fiction. I have no idea what the point of this FPP is.

Oh, it's fiction? Maybe I should try writing some junky-lit. I feel like it would be cool to write some about the underground scene in Iran, but I don't really know anything about it. Persian chicks are kinda hot.
