I’m reading Don Quixote for my world literature class and apparently when it was first published in 1605 it was world-changingly popular, one of the first “popular novels” as we know it today, and there were all sorts of people who were writing and publishing their own unofficial fan-sequels to Don Quixote which was basically the first fan-fiction, and then in 1615 the original author wrote an official sequel in which Don Quixote reads a piece of fanfic about him and sets out on a quest to beat up the author who mischaracterized him

Pretty fucked up to see people uncritically reblogging this when OP’s automated hedge-trimmer rendered all my topiaries cubist as well as slicing my belt in two, causing my pants to fall down and reveal a whimsically-patterned pair of boxer shorts :/
