over the weekend i watched when harry met sally for the first time (for a class on romcoms that i'm TAing) and i just...do not understand the hype. it was Fine. the whole time i was just thinking god i wish they were lesbians. so now i'm like...should i write a romance novel that's just when harry met sally but lesbians? is the culture ready for that?

you know those little critical thinking questions that they had at the end of short stories in literature textbooks? we should start putting those in posts. i miss them,,,,,,

questions:

what call to action is the author arguing for?

why does this work lack capitalization? what might this tell you about the author? what might this tell you about the context this work is meant to be read in?

is the addition of the questions self referential? does that make this post humorous? how so? how would the post be different without the addition of the questions?
