Yeh, Stephen King better get cracking writing new books or he may use his title as 'king of horror', otherwise everyone will forget he's one of the most famous and prolific authors of the last 100 years. He'd better add to his massively lacking body of work or he'll lose his title to...Dean Koontz?

This would be like if Elvis hadn't died and people were telling him in the 90s he'd better get back in the studio or no one will call him the king of rock n roll anymore. Pretty sure Steve can very comfortably rest on his laurels and remain a household name for decades without doing anything.

I only know about Dean Koontz because he’s the butt of a Family Guy joke where Brian runs him over with a car

I read a book of his about genetically mutated dogs when I was like 11 or so and liked it, but he's known as the b grade King

My exposure to his existence was a robot chicken sketch.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
