Jim Henson would have made a great ILXor, it seems.

quite embarrassed to have been taken in -- but for some reason parts of the henson comments were just plausible enough given some of the other things that generally happen in silicon valley. once I actually started reading the reagan / said exchanges it was just too florid to accept

yeah i bought it too, where's my 21st century permanent scepticism? congrats to ayn rand for being such a ridiculous person that even a pretty extreme parody seems plausible, though.

Aw, bummed it's not real. Gave me a new screen name though.

did not seem at all real to me - for one thing, i assume that rand would be much more logically argumentative and long-winded in her responses

"grumping" did not seem like a Randian word to me.

Henson "laughing out loud" stuck out immediately.

I believe Ayn Rand's first love poem went: Roses are red/ violets are blue/ finish this poem yourself / you dependent parasite

“The Muppets Take Manhattan”
This movie was a disappointment. The Muppets do not take Manhattan at all. They merely visit it. —No stars.

Yes, the first few are good as well.

Her fiction is much funnier, if unintentional.
