I just don’t find the gore entertaining. I can handle “comic book violence,” but once it looks real (even with dragons or whatnot), I can’t take it.

And of course, you were always a fan of the word “platitude”.
Disagree with you on #9 though: the violence is in service of a type of story, without which it would not be realistic, and please don’t take me to task for saying a dragons-and-magic fantasy is, um, realistic…

But I like our claw foot tub/shower – though I did have a custom shower curtain made…
