So I caught a couple of minutes of Law & Order: SVU this evening — enough to note that tonight’s murdering ‘psychopath’ (now THERE’S an overused word) was a rejected novelist.
How do they know he’s a novelist? Why, when they pay a visit to his psychopathic den, he has wallpapered his apartment with rejection letters.
Detective 1: “Why would he do that?”
Detective 2: “Because he’s crazy.”
Crazy, oh yeah, crazy like a FOX!*
