More Brienne liveblogging Tingle poundings. :) Her post is public, so you can probably search it in Facebook if you want, and keep up with them as she reads the rest and liveblogs them.

Okay, okay, you and Brienne have convinced me. But there are so many stories! How have you and/or she decided which stories to read, and in what order? Where do I start?
I’m not sure it matters that much, to be honest. :) I read the ones most relevant to the Hugos first, and then went with the self-advertised super-meta ones, since I like that sorta stuff. Honestly, even though his breakout was “Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt,” I wouldn’t really recommend that one. Tingle hadn’t quite hit his stride yet, and the protagonist isn’t even straight at the start!
For sheer absurdity, I love the Alpha Diner story. The most SF one I’ve read so far is “Pounded In The Butt By My Book “Pounded In The Butt By My Book “Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt”””, it’s very Inception-esque. “Reamed By My Reaction To The Title of This Book” is pretty meta, but I haven’t gotten through the full meta-sequence yet.
And honestly, I feel like I’ve barely dipped my toe in the pool. I’d say just grab any story whose title strikes your interest and have at it. They’re all ridiculous. :)
“Musical Joke” would probably do more to me if I knew anything about music, either specifically classical or in general. As-is, my verdict is “this sounds kinda nice?”
Yeah, I have no clue either. :)
