Yeah… by Philip K. Dick… only the best-regarded sci-fi writer next to Asimov and maybe Bradbury.
He’s kind of the darling of sci-fi filmmakers. Blade Runner, Paycheck, Minority Report and Total Recall are all based on books and short stories he wrote.
Obviously you haven’t read much (if any) Philip K. Dick.
TIME FOR ME TO GET ON MY LITERARY HIGH-HORSE:
Philip Dick lifted the entire genre of science-fiction out of the pit it had dug for itself–he made it RELEVANT TO EVERYDAY LIFE, in a way that *scoff* Orson Scott Card–could only DREAM of.
Plus, God shot a pink laser into his head in 1974!
I hereby decree that on the 21st of May I did issue an executive order condemning Mr. Paul Binkley to immediate and painful death. The subject is under surveillance now, and the order will be executed (in the presence of a notary) on the 23rd of May, 2006.
A shameless plug I see. I hope it is good…I think it will be amazing or aweful…I am undecided.
I wasn’t talking about the MOVIE!
Besides, if it was a shameless plug, I would have included a link to the movie’s web page.
Sigh… he has fallen into insanity.
*Shakes head*
Nurse! Fetch the electrodes!
Then what the hell were you talking about?!
I was talking about the book, you uncultured buffoon.
There was a book?!
I admit my ignorance…I am too busy with other books, okay?! Like the insane ramblings of a sci-fi author that Asimov really liked.

And if he was still alive right now he’d be dead.
What about Frank Herbert?! Orson Scott Card?!
There are many more of these “best-regarded” sci-fi authors.

Read VALIS, and behold his genius.
Well, that’s very interesting. I fully submit to your superior intelligence and would like to point out that I pick my nose on a regular basis.
It’s very refreshing to see such honesty from you, Paul. And yes, I AM of superior intelligence.
You bastard.
What gives you the right to edit my posts?!
…because I’m the one with the admin password.
In other news: Andrew’s a dick! More at 11:00.
And I also have the “I hate bunnies and all things beautiful” password. Because I hate them. Sooo much.
Plus, I feed fuzzy things poison for kicks (and profit). And I smell funny. REALLY FUNNY.
I agree with you, Andrew, but I hate the fact that you shot my foot the other day. You bastard.
Je suis moose. Eh?
OH? Well, Mister, TWO can play at THAT game!

Tu es moose, peut-être, mais je suis un ami de le Président, et maintenant tu es mort! HAH!
Now, you or someone has been adding posts by me well, (under my name)…bastards…
What are you talking about? I haven’t posted anything since the original article!
Hmm…I don’t think I believe you…
Now, can we stop this horrible train wreck of pointlessness?!
Oh man that was funny to watch. Who is who? Ahahahaha!
P.S. Several are me! Ahahaha! Or am I me? Crap.
