"Game Of Toilets" Stopped Up! Piracy-Ignoring George R.R. Martin misses deadline

Oh, the year has started off badly for house-bound male virgins.

George R.R. Martin missed his deadline and HBO might have to delay filming the latest "Game of Toilets" crap.

Everyone's howling over books and an HBO series that NOBODY will care about in ten years. Or less.

Anyone still care about The Sopranos? Anyone still talking about Sex in the City? Is there a charity shop on the planet that can sell an old novel by Jackie Collins or James Patterson?

"Game of Thrones" junk will be sitting around as unloved and inert as Martin's fan base. Consider that even Jerk Growling's Harry Potty books are becoming an eyesore. Anyone interested in Flash Gordon or Edgar Rice Burroughs' series of Mars sci-fi books?

While he IS too fat to go down the chute, George R.R. Martin IS disposable and his books will not interest the next generation of Blacks, Chinese, Mexicans and Muslims, who will be dominating the planet.

Georgy Gob didn't sit on his throne and hack out more garbage because he's way too busy waving to fans, going into bookstores and being lauded as a BIG author, and of course, being on Twatter telling everyone how much fun he's having.

PS, this guy is also contributing to the death of the publishing world by not stopping piracy on eBay. Ebay piracy is easy to stop. It's not like begging the Swedes of Pirate Bay to take down something (and getting scorn and nose-thumbing in return).

Here's a seller who signed up in Romania but claims to be in Oregon, who is making money every week on Georgy. This has been going on for months. The seller says "I own copyright" and eBay says "Gee, maybe he's George Roly Roly Martin sneaking an extra 20 or 30 pounds a week for himself on the sly. He does seem to weigh 20 or 30 pounds more every time you see him."

All George (or his agent, or an intern) has to do is say "Hey Ebay, I'm stating under penalty of perjury, this fuckhead does NOT own copyright" and the auction ends. Lazy Mr. Fuckhead is too busy on Twatter, and too busy sitting on his throne and shitting.

The last lines of this ad, which the SELLER has printed in RED, are absolutely outrageous.

This creep is actually giving a caveat to EBAY saying, in essence, "I know this looks like a bootleg, so I'm telling you NO. And that should be good enough." And it is!

And this seller is doing it to four other authors, too. "I own copyright." And the extra lie, that this shit is being sent, what, by postal mail? No, as eBay could easily see, this seller sends a PM with the download code. EASY MONEY.

This is Ebay at its finest. If this seller wrote: "I'm selling my smelly knickers, but they will be cleaned before mailing," the auction would end. If the seller wrote, "Ebay, stop removing my auctions, it is legal to send smelly knickers through the mail," the auction would STILL end.

But say "I own copyright" and the Fascists of San Jose say "Ha ha ho ho hee hee, we take a percentage! Let the fat lazy writer or the $200 an hour corporate lawyer tell us different!"

Give a positive to this crapload maggot for the "hard work" of copying off Kickass files and putting up an ad that eBay won't question and George Repulsively Rotund Martin won't stop.
