I'm hater but I just don't believe How to Be A Dog is that good, I hope jakey dies.

yeah no feel free to sow your hater oats. that's what this competition is for

#ask #not a poll #i exalt the hater #some of my most formative moments in english classes growing up were when i really disliked something #you can imagine how much of a joy i was to have in class #teachers often did not like me. especially men #but you've gotta learn your taste for yourself. and you've gotta know how to defend that taste if not to others then to yourself #and if you don't do that then you've got no path for quality reading once you leave the school environment #i admit i've been rather more diplomatic as the author of this competition than i might have been as a voter haha. but i'm fine with that
