First night at new work yesterday. Did nothing for 12 hours. Next shift tonight. I read some erotic stories at work and they were fairly interesting. it was this little book with about 10 erotic stories and some random penis insertion pictures on some of the pages, printed in b&w to save the printing cost. I don't see how anyone below 50 could buy that thing but I still read like half of it and it was fascinating.
The stories were obviously stupid and half-assed, but I was more interested in the writing and the mind of the writer. I was surprised there weren't many grammatical mistakes. In czech kids in elementary schools have troubles choosing between "i" and "y" for instance, because the rules to apply them seem complicated and they often sound the same. But they were all correct here. The only trouble was building the sentences right, so each part makes sense and shit, I think you call it syntax. The results of my study are that the person who wrote this thing wrote all the stories in it, because they were all similar and kinda limited in knowledge of how the world works. Kind of a simple-minded world-view is what I would call it. The way he pictures managers for instance, or other jobs is just very limited. I assume he's about 50 and he wanted to be a writer. He probably still thinks he's talented, even though nobody fucking cares anymore when he's 50. He doesn't know shit about anything so he has to write about sex.
I found some of the stories quite sad really. Because of his simple world-view. The times where he tried to sound romantic and to develop a story were the worst. I need to finish this book tonight so I will report with more.
