As In, To Fuck

Among the Spartans the work of war is demystified and depersonalized through its vocabulary, which is studded with references both agrarian and obscene. Their word which I translated earlier as "fuck," as in the youths' tree-fucking, bears the connotation not so much of penetration as of grinding, like a miller's stone. The front three ranks "fuck" or "mill" the enemy.

Excerpt From This Week's Column

...I’ll come out of a time travel movie going, “yeah, but wouldn’t…” For instance, say someone a character goes back in time and changes something. Wouldn’t the character in the present suddenly not remember anything that had happened in the first version of the past?

Unfinished Tales, Vol. 4

Just Do It

Dan sat at the white tile-topped table, one hand holding up the left side of the newspaper, the other frozen in the act of scooping up a spoonful of shredded mini-wheats.

“Honey,” he said, “Do you realize how much the world sucks?”

From somewhere behind Dan, she said, “Uh-huh.”
