Hello. I am LotF, or better known as Land-Lord of the Flounders. I am here to tell you when you should know that you are unhealthy-ly obsessed with Lord of the Flies. Please read, and after reading, please question.
Step One: Reading the book and liking it.
Now you might say that there's no harm in reading the book and liking it. In most opinions ((Most99)), Lord of the Flies is a very good book, and to some, the best book ever written in English. But to most of the people who've read it might say that it's the hardest-to-understand book ever written in English. So that's why they read it twice, even three times.
If you've read it and liked it, then this is the start of your obsession.
Step Two: Talking about the book and not shutting up.
This is where the obsession might show a little. If you talk about the book, that's great, but if you talk about the book to people who have either never read it nor heard of it, then that can be a little...unhealthy. But, at least they know you like the book!
Step Three: Having people tell you you're obsessed with the book.
Once you reach step three, then you should start being a little bit afraid. If you talk about the book non-stop and read the book non-stop, then people are gonna start hating you because that's all you talk about and you never even talk or think about anything else. Your friends might wanna read that book just to see what's so great about it, and then you can blame yourself for letting them get outta hand.
Step Four: Naming inanimate objects after characters in the book.
After this stage, everyone will either hate you or be very afraid of you. You are naming things that aren't alive after characters in the book. You might name paint bottles based off of their colors. Yellow could be Ralph, Red could be Jack, Black could be Simon, Pink could be Piggy...You name your car...You're then a very depressing person.
Step Five: Naming pets and/or children after characters in the book.
Your friends, family, and peers now hate you. You named your yellow-ish cat Ralpie. You named your child Simona..cuz she was a girl. This is the worst step in the entire obsession. You are now very very unhealthy-ly obsessed with Lord of the Flies.
CONGRATULATIONS! You can now be my friend!
(((Side Note: Having a username and/or pen name that has something to do with Lord of the Flies goes in Step Three, I think...)))
