Reader Feedback on "The Little Death"
the "and you'll never be a doctor" line in the first few paragraphs is a straight rip off of Chuck Palahniuk's "Guts." While clever, it's downright criminal to steal something so genius without even a nod to the original author.

I loved this! A nice mix of sexy and disturbing.

We weren't aware of the origin of that line, and have changed the piece to remove it. Thank you for letting us know. - Peter Smith, Editor

This dude is completely ripping off Chuck Palahniuk!!! The lipstick color line is his! Craptastic. Good editing for plagarism, nerve.

No, don't diss him by bringing Palahniuk in. I think it's good.

Nice to know you were so concerned about waking up with a dead girl. Whew. At least now you can finish school. Sounds like you'll be a great doctor!

Normally the drivel on Nerve would rate a 2 or 3 out of ten. This is a solid 6 point 5. It would have been a 5, but it was mercifully short; much like Brian Fairbanks reading off a list of his conquests.

Fucked up. You have the beginning of a Palahniuk novel.
