I've only made it through M&D once, about six years ago. And, although it
doesn't measure up to GR, it is by no means a turd. That really is just
hyperbole and unspecific.
It is maybe overly long and maybe lacking in unifying structure (beyond P's
ever-present memes). But it is still often beautifully written and often
funny.
