Aug 31, 2004 In an article I recently read, Stephen King wrote his opinion on individuals who he feels are the sneer-folks of humanity; and therefore, I thought I'd do a counterbalance and look at his sneer-neurosis. He says [Entertainment Weekly]: "I sneer at people that sneer at entertainment..." he adds with a little glitter, "I feel story for them, too." And he goes on to dazzle the article with, "Riding that high horse has got to be uncomfortable..." I think he has a bit of sneer-neurosis himself. If I didn't know any better he must be talking about his second self - he seems to live in it quite a lot, or possible it is his first. Anyhow let's look at options: he's again handing out garbage to see who will grab it, and laughs his sneerful face right to the bank; it doesn't take much nowadays to make people laugh, just a head cut off here or there. I think he wrote one book I liked, the rest, oh well, let Satan's children have it; and his movies, I seen three, and I guess he may have made two I liked, I couldn't go to the others I'd never sleep. If you were to rate them in a Christian atmosphere he's really written nothing good, but then a Christian wouldn't write that would they, therefore he isn't writing it for Christians. And I doubt he has any Christian blood in his veins, and I shouldn't talk too loud, I watched two, no, three of them movies, and started to read several of his books, and couldn't finish but one. His writing ability isn't all that great, compared to skilled writers, but he has a way with grabbing the bored person's life inside of him/her, and planting them into a profound environment that makes there mundane lives come alive for a moment. Should that person get a life, he/she would not need to find one in his movies, or books. So when he writes about people sneering, I suggest he think twice for one can see it in most of his pictures: you don't take the best pictures Mr. King, and your sneers start in your upper eyebrows and go all the way to the bottom of the tip of your chin. It is actually melting into your skin I do believe, its there no matter what you try to do. He says, or implies he likes most movies, and they should not be rated, "star rated," like one star, two star, etc. Be that as it may, I don't think they should rate books on the New York Times Book Review either, but they do; funny he doesn't mention that. It's the sneer-neuroses that keep him from doing so. In any case, we can't sneer at his money making books, they sell millions, and that is nothing to sneer at, and I suppose he will have the right to sneer all the way to hell with his black stallion, as he rides high and mighty showing the world down there his glories horror: that is, until he finds out, he's actually going to have to live it.
