What do you think of Fran Lebowitz?
I watched Scorsese documentary about her, Public Speaking, and she seems an interesting person to listen to. Does this translate well to her books?

You fucking faggot - a Representative Republic is a form of democracy (as opposed to say, a direct democracy). What you just said was tantamount to "wow, u ideeee-it!!!! We have a dal-may-shun, not a dawg!!!!!1111"
