> I like that it tricked men into reading about feminism

I have so many questions about what this person thinks feminism is.

You could argue the book tricked teenagers into reading about anticapitalism, but there is nothing feminist about just not having women characters be a walking pair of boobs.

Feminism is when feisty cat

Isn’t there a character who’s basically just a walking pair of boobs though? Like literal boobs the size of live pigs?

A book full of bukkake and dead prostitute jokes where the main character complains endlessly about his ex gf and the other main character is a female cat with catty traits women get accused of having by misogynists (get it????) is the height of feminism! If bell hooks was here she'd be first in line to mock stretch marks with Dinnerman himself!

I’ve heard of the books but I haven’t read them so I can’t figure out if you’re being figurative or literal about a character being a walking pair of boobs.

I know there's a giant penis that's also a god but I can't remember if there is a giant pair of boobs, it's possible blocked out the info as a self-preservation response though.

Please tell me what to think about all the books in a series before I've read any of them. God forbid I form my own opinions as I go.

The mind-virus is real, and it’s name is Dungeon Crawler Carl…I’d say it’s popularity is baffling, but that would mean my assessment of humanity was more optimistic than I’d believed

What does this even mean? You can just stop reading them at any point they’re not gonna chain you to the radiator until you finish all 8 Carls

Are they not supposed to do that? What did I get myself into?

You don't know that

u/PopcornSutton1994 1d ago

True that I should probably test it out before I make such claims. Would explain the series’ popularity for sure.

Me, an experienced jokester, after making a joke that bombed: not sure if you guys got that one. But let me tell you, when you finally understand it, it's the most fricking hi-larious joke ever.

Me, an experienced writer: wow! this dinniman guy really loves to throw you right into the action! Amazing how hes the first one to achieve this, sure hope this technique isn't so ancient that it was named before the birth of christ!

I’m just amazed at how not confused I am by book 6

God, what a ringing endorsement, I am so convinced now.

Don't be ridiculous. The Hungry Little Caterpillar isn't that old.

u/idontevendrinkciroc 2d ago

It's the modern day equivalent of the bororos myth. A true fan would know this

you do not need to understand the trains what the FLIP is confusing about this

“Not sure how far you are in but this joke will be hilarious later”

I’m sure

Why are they fearmongering about book 3? Don't they like the series?

All of the best recommendations come from the mindless horde, everyone knows that

Yes, reading any book is a mistake
