Symbolism? Oh come on. Symbolism is what happens when people want something to be more important than it is. It makes me want to dig my heart out with a dull spoon, and I'm pretty sure they could find some symbolism in that!
I know! ^.^ He was all "nnooooooo!" and running for the key pad.

I know...It's so pointless...Extended metaphors rock my world, though.

And long random tangents that don't usually make sense until a few chapters later, then you just kind of go .

I know! I love it (well not really, but it works because it is funny) when you read over something, don't entirely absorb it, and then realize what happened chapters later. That happened to me today when I was reading a chapter and was like...wait, when did they do it?

I do that all the time with boring books...I'll skim them, then totally miss the whole point of a chapter.

And when they do foreshadowing in a prequel (the Death Star showing up in SW2, for instance). I absolutely loved that, I still remember the first time I saw it--front row, too--and I started whispering to my family, "Did you see that? That's epic isn't it?" And I also should mention that being an admin adds too many buttons to things...I accidentally modified your post twice while trying to quote it. /fail

Big buttons make the world go round. I mean, you always have to touch them. Unless it is a red button of course, then you probably should stay away from it.
