I’m not going to get this way about things. I like the idea of the Croatoans so kill me. It’s a real place and a real thing but I shouldn’t get so overblown about it. There are ordinary things like kindness and warmth and sensual pleasure and a whole bunch of things. I think they have better food there however. I’m not even that big of a rice person.
There are lots of things I didn’t like till I tried them. Or I was forced to like them by circumstance. Croatoa is kind of like that. The Croatoans force you to like it but not in an unpleasant way.
