Lord Harry was certainly pretentious, the overall book, not so much
>>
>>8182808
No. It's very quotable. Though I guess some pretentious works may seem like they're quotable too.

I don't understand how any normal human man fingers his own ass. It's impossible. It's not pleasurable. How do you relax while doing it?
I think gay men just have a Loves Butt Stuff gene, and I'm not gay so I don't have it. I tried it and it fucking hurt.

>That's the furries in space meme book?
>The furriness isn't more than a few sentences a few books in, unless there's stuff in Legacy (I'm 4/5, mostly through Homecoming). Butchering is mostly confined to pidgin, but it makes an effectively jarring mask over some mindsets that would feel far less convincingly alien without.
