Books Breaking: Hack Author Swedish, Stupid
Posted by Paul Constant on Fri, Jun 12, 2009 at 1:01 PM
The Smoking Gun reports on the guy who wrote the sequel to the Catcher in the Rye that Salinger is suing over. He's written a bunch of cheesy joke books, he's self-publishing 60 Years Later: Coming Through the Rye, and he's surprised that Salinger sued him because "I'm Swedish, we don't sue people here."
In conclusion: U!S!A! U!S!A!

"I'm Swedish, we don't sue people here."
Jesus. I heard him say that on NPR a couple days ago. Sweeds never heard of Google either, apparently. Salinger is notoriously one of the most litigious people on earth. 30 seconds research on the interwebs would have revealed that.
What a dumbshit.

They don't do that in Canada either.
Only Americans are stupid enough to employ the majority of the entire world's lawyers.

Shit, I hope Salinger doesn't find out about the story I wrote for my creative writing class sophmore year.
