Yes, but that’s a rather extreme case, wouldn’t you agree? I’d hate to paint all hedonists with all paraphiles, which is, to be fair, what it sounds like you’re doing.
Smoppet is probably thinking of the Marquis de Sade, who was kind of the uber-libertine. But, yeah, most libertines don’t take things quite that far. He was a special case, to say the least.
Yes, I really do NOT think we can paint all libertines with the brush used by de Sade. The Marquis was….well, “libertine” alone does not cover that case.
No, a random person on Goodreads likes some stuff the author did.
Actually, I’m not even 100% that we can say that. “Mariana” says that Lisa here is “a very compelling writer.” She never says what she feels compelled to do…
Yes and stay away from the lure of freebie fonts (that came with your computer) like bloody Lucida HW or Calligraphy. If that’s not Lucida Calligraphy Italic, I’ll eat my little typographic booties.
An ancestor of Bob Hope?
Victim of bad cut’n’paste?
Does this author know what “libertine” means….because usually it has to do with flaying people and eating feces….
Uh…whut? A libertine is someone who is dissolute. Morally corrupt. Not sure where you came up with the feces-eating flayer? (Curious?)
And Ragtime!
Shameless music that’ll grab your son, your daughter in the arms of a jungle, animal instinct— mass hysteria!
Friends, the idle brain is the devil’s playground!
(And a little bit of optional feces-eating.)
And comic books about crime and horror that seduce the innocent children of America into lives of crime and depravity
Hey, CAPTAIN BILLY’SA WHIZ BANG is no mere comic book!
In de Sade’s “120 Days of Sodom” the Libertines engage in all manner of depravity, of which coprophagia and torture are tamest.

That’s why we had to come up with another adjective for him, based on his name.
Indeed.
If you zoom that picture, the cut-paste around the nose is particularly horrendous. HORRENDOUS.
Let’s face it. Lisa can Torquay out of anything.
Look! A random person on Goodreads likes it!

Burn the book, perhaps?
Paper books you burn.
eBooks have to be electrocuted.
Good point!
AHHHHHHHH KERN YOUR CURSIVE AHHHHH!
Next up, the Curse of the Unkerned Cursive.
