Insult to Injury

BBC headline:
JK Rowling, the new Roger Bannister
Great. Not only does Rowling crank out crappy prose to make far more money than I do , but she can run the four-minute mile as well.

Quote from the link:

"I still haven't forgiven CS Lewis for going on all those long walks with JRR Tolkien and failing to strangle him, thus to save us from hundreds of pages dripping with the wizardly wisdom of Gandalf and from the kind of movie in which Orlando Bloom defiantly flexes his delicate jaw at thousands of computer-generated orcs.

In fact it would have been even better if CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien could have strangled each other, so that we could also have been saved from the Chronicles of Narnia."

You seem a bit delusional, Mr. James. Perhaps a long walk would clear your head? May I suggest heading in the direction of the pier? Preferably the short ones.

Imbecile.
