    I’m all for writing conservative horror fiction but you know they can’t read it, right?

    It’s a bit like the time when my 12th grade English teacher had us read Death of the Ball Turret Gunnner while she went to the teacher’s lounge for a smoke.

    Being an aviation nerd I already knew what it was about, so when she came back and asked us what we thought I raised my hand and explained it. What I didn’t know is she was going to quiz us on it afterwards, and I gave away the secret so everybody got an A.

    Which is good because I didn’t like that English teacher.

    So did the teacher get back to them? Was a secret communist club started? They can’t just leave the story thread hanging like that.
