Well, that and the fact that you point to posts including the priceless paragraph:
...I was grabbed not-quite-from-the-first by The Warrior's Apprentice. 'Oh yes,' I droned as Our Hero tried out in an Almost Hopeless But Gosh He Was Plucky Endeavour to get into The Harsh But Fair Damn It Space Academy. 'He is physically disadvantaged. All will seem lost. There will be a mean bully. But soon I - oh, wait, he just broke both his legs at the first obstacle and he's being sent to Grandma's on a rest cure. What, really? What, really? THAT IS AWESOME.'
Made my day, reliving that reaction from someone who recently read it. (And who can be concise and funny about it...)
