The difference between a badly-made movie and a trash movie is that a badly made movie is bad out of laziness, and a trash movie has been made by passionate idiots who put the maximum energy into all the wrong directions. Good trash is transcendent, it practically *hums*

Happy #makeaterriblecomicday! I really wanna talk about this book, OK.

Panel 1 - Frog Wizard and Gumdrop Wizard are at the bar. Frog wizard - "What you been reading lately, Gumdrop Wizard?" Gumdrop Wizard - "Well lately it's been Trollope's Barchester Towers"
Panel 2 - GW - "Mr. Slope Just pissed off all the old priests with his sermon." FW - "Damn!"
Panel 3 - GW- "And now they all wanna ban him from the pulpit!" FW - "Oh Shit!"
Panel 4 - GW - "So Slope is going around to their wies to get them on his side." FW - "Woah. Things're heating up, huh." GW - "You bet your ass."
