there's repetition for effect and there's repetition taken to ruining otherwise decent writing. if you were a hopelessly lousy writer it wouldn't have been irritating. use it less and i can return to focusing my anger at ian macewan, updike and toni morrison.

But what do you suggest I do instead? I've been using "Little Boots" consistently so that it would be clear who I meant. (Hoffmania has been saying "crackhead" but I really don't want to go that far.)
