“I think people who enjoy short stories have a special gland, one that responds to the unexpected with little bursts of pleasure chemicals. I’m always suspicious of people who love to read, but who don’t like short stories. These people, I think, if they have the gland, have a shriveled thing, an atrophied little apple core. I pity these people. They are missing out on these inky little orgasms.”
—Adam Marek, from “Short Circuit”

Damn. I’m one of those people who prefers novels to short stories and episodic TV to movies.
