Because revenge requires Papyrus, and two other fonts. Three if you count the sign. 😉

I am gonna be nice lest I find my bike hanging in a tree with a sign “The owner of this bike is a meanie.”

He wants $3.99 for the ebook and $6.95 or the paperback, but says on the flyleaf that he doesn’t believe in copyright:
“We believe that copying is a form of flattery and do not abide by the copyright laws. Those laws serve to restrict the flow of ideas, which no one can really own. Please share feely and frequently.”
So, he doesn’t believe in copyright–and thus, it’s okay to steal from authors and publishers–but if you steal a bicycle, it’s okay to publicly humiliate someone?
Considering some of the indie small press and self pub stuff I’ve seen, free is probably a fairer price for his book than $3.99 or $6.95.
Apparently he feels free to share copies of his (and others’) writings without compensation. [sarcasm] What are the odds he doesn’t make a living at writing? [/sarcasm]
Yay, Papyrus!

You can’t, like, *own* a potato, man . . .

Skewed perspective much?

What are the odds he doesn’t make a living…period? As in, STUDENT? Maybe his bike was stolen from his safe space!
A passive-aggressive note on a bike? Really? That’s the best revenge scheme they have?
Not to mention…what’s unserious revenge? Frivolous revenge? Not serious revenge? “Just kidding” revenge?
Seriously? Learn the language, if you’re going to write a book.
