It's honestly becoming pretty funny to me how Ready Player One was just an extremely bad ripoff of Snow Crash without any of the actual humour
Like I've read 9 chapters of Snow Crash and already I can see so many things that Ernest Cline probably read once and went "That's a fun idea i should steal that" and then made them worse
@witchfynder_finder on the subject of names, Ernest Cline sounds like the victim of a harry potter naming seer
@Lady Yeah he kind of was just doomed from the start
@Lady holy shit
@witchfynder_finder if i was named Ernest Cline i would probably turn out like that too
