...author of imaginist fiction, from J.R.R. Tolkien to George Lucas, from Rowling to Meyer, the fun is in creating the laws, folkways and architecture of the alternative universe that its more fanciful characters inhabit. The Cullens are a fastidious family of vampires; in their tennis whites, with their regal airs, they resemble the aristocratic Flyte brood in Brideshead Revisited. They call themselves vegetarians because they drink the blood of animals, not people. They can fly, move with lightning speed, scale trees in a trice. They also play baseball, which in the Cullen clan is a lot like Rowling's Quidditch...
...entire 3.2-inch screen every time you type a letter or confirm a menu choice is that it slows you down. The idea behind the clickable screen is that it will minimize errors by getting you to think before you press. Instead, it took much of the fun out of using the device. While some people complain that the iPhone's touchscreen is a little too slick and imprecise - of the three devices, I tend to make the most typos with the iPhone - at least it's fast.

"If I thought that I was crazy/ Well I guess I'd have more fun," Rose sings in "The Catcher in the Rye," and he may be on to something. Chinese Democracy is as obsessive as you'd expect, but it's not nearly crazy enough...
...they are wrong (and probably closet house partiers anyway). Why make the drunken mistakes of your first week of freshman year just once? I know that doubling the maximum capacity of a triple in Winthrop and running out of alcohol in the first half hour is your idea of fun. The 80’s Dance, the 90’s Dance, Sweet ’n Nasty, and Make it Rain are all awesome. It’s like Halloween every weekend! The themes give you a reason to play dress-up like when you were little, giving...
