Literary Hard-on

a moment of self-inflection where one has an incredible erection due to use of any variety of literary device. Whether it be verse or a visual representation i.e. movie, video game.

The visual interpretation of The Divine Comedy used in Dante's Inferno the video game gave me a literary hard-on.

Literary Abortion

A piece of writing that is such a failure, it is worse than an abortion.

"So I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies with me?"

"What are you going to watch? I hope it's not Twilight."

"Dip me in shit and call me Susan, how could you have ever guessed?"

"Well, Twilight is number one in the box office, so its sells went up a lot. The only reason I don't want to watch it is because it was based on the book, which was a literary abortion."

Literacy rage

The feeling of venomous bile rising from ones stomach when people can not master basic English.

Literary Depression

The overwhelming feeling of sadness and loss of interest one experiences shortly after finishing a mind-blowingly good book.

Man 1: "Hey, what's up with Joe today? He seems sad,"

Man 2: "Oh yeah, he just finished 'Inheritance'. He's got a bad case of Literary Depression,"
