This does offer a measure of how talented Edward Gorey was.
Yeah, it really is just Gorey, only worse in every way. Like, what’s even the point of this? It doesn’t add anything to the “macabre children’s poetry” genre, except I guess the gross molestation references. The art is decent enough, to the point where I wish the illustrator had some self-respect and didn’t agree to work on this book.
Holy shit. I thought I already knew how stupid Dr Jordan B. Peterson was. Now I see that I was incorrect.
Of all the cursed artifacts this site has shown me, it’s this one that shattered my mind. There is fucking way this is real. We’ve all fallen into the Popsicle Pete dimension.
I had to look this sad guy up after reading and the saddest thing is there is no way that this is his worst book
Psychotic horror is one of my favorite genres of all time and *I* think this shit needs to dial it back a notch.
I can totally see, like, ANY of the protagonists of the horror games I play finding out the dark truth about themselves only for Jordon to drop “Isaiah”, make them stop dead in the middle of their realization and go “Holy shit, WHAT?”.
At first I thought maybe the doll thing was like the magic clay in Fantastic Four, like how the Puppetmaster dropped his puppet and then fell out the window?
Then I thought maybe it was molestation again, like “used [the doll] to ensure her fall” was, like, luring her to his windowless van with it.
Who the hell knows? It’s fucking weird and baffling in a way that doesn’t quite fit with all the other horrible shit. I’m going to try to stop thinking about it but I am concerned it has burrowed its way into my brain.
Oh… oh no. I think I understand what “P” was supposed to be about. It’s anti-vaccination. The “stranger” is the pictured nurse. The “pinch” is the shot. And the “fall” is “indoctrination.”
I’m so fucking mad at my brain right now.
I thought he stole the artwork from the card game “Lunch money” honestly…
Is it wrong to want to buy Jordan Peterson a subscription to 1900hotdog?
