Doing a second listen of book 8. Two things:
1) Plenty of Plenty remains my favorite part of any of these books, but specifically the audiobook version of it. Fucking masterpiece.
2) The faggot shit with Dong and Corky or whatever, is my least favorite thing in these books by far. In fact, I'd go so far as to say I absolutely loathe it, specifically because it's gay faggot shit. The books had very little in the way of romance angle, and I appreciated that quite a bit. But I don't think I'm off base in saying by the end of book 8, the "relationship" that has been addressed the most, in depth, is in fact this gay bullshit. It's the kind of shit I'd expect to find in anything aimed at the "modern audience."
Matt is a pretty great writer, but I really wish he'd lay off the degenerate stuff (including some of the shit he writes for the AI), and this is the first strike against him, so to speak. Which is pretty impressive if I think about it, after 8 books. But I'm just so fucking tired of it all, it's in literally everything nowadays.

Yeah that was kind of funny. The concept of the dude being split in half is all he needed, really. Dong could have just been a good friend, trying to help him get rejoined with the split half that fucked off. There was zero need for that story to include the faggot shit.
You know how much I dislike exploded hotdogs, Carl.

in the prior book Dong talked about “mounting and riding” a mantaur so, I wasn’t surprised it went in that direction, when they pursued it—not that I had any interest in that storyline, I thought the “finance bro” sapient sock had some amusing quips but that got thrown away in the process

No, that's actually how a mantaur dick looks
Most male strippers IRL are gay too. So that shouldn't have been a surprise.

I wonder if your blind to so much of the gay shit going in because you weren’t born into the darkness like me? Maybe this is a boiled frog situation.

Im well aware there has been plenty of one-off stuff. If you can point me to where I missed an entire storyline based on gay shit prior to book 8, I’d be interested to see if you’re right.

What does that mean? You were born from 2 faggots? Wouldn't that make you the boiled frog?
I saw the whole penis parade as a gay story line. Remember the cum closet when Carl was told to come out limping because he had a reputation to protect?
I guess the carl's little piggy snick was a one-off. I'm pretty sure there was other faggotry I'm forgetting about. But at the very least you gotta admit this gay shit was foreshadowed a long time ago.
