Mmm, we need a snarky, Da Vinci Code bashing icon. But yay for finding more people who think Dan Brown is completely overrated!
For the time being, my generic *facepalm* icon will have to make do. But a "oooh, let's bash Dan Brown one" would be nice, too. :) I wouldn't mind the "Da Vinci Code" half as much, though, if the book weren't so hugely successful. If it were just another cheesy thriller about the "secrets" of the Catholic Church that sold moderately well, it might even have amused me. (I do like cheesy novels. Well, sometimes.) But with everyone going on about how wonderful it is and maybe even taking it seriously -- dear God, no.
And the head of department sounds like a genuinely nice guy. Lobscouse and Spotted Dog dinner -- heh! :) Enjoy your cooking experiments, by the way!
