Hold the Girard...S'il vous plaît

So...
Many of my friends have gone Girardian to the extreme, if you will. A quote from a recent English, but not lit-crit class may help demonstrate this:

"So, is it possible that the goose is a scapegoat?"

I'm just as glad as the next person that people have found a theory to explain all of literature, although a) I doubt it does and b) it's becoming almost as annoying as people dismissing Mill on account of his non-scriptural arguements.


P.S.

They're also not even reading Girard in the original French. Philistines.

Ah...geekdom

I now Blog. Whoa.
