A Post-Structuralist Conclusion

"Sis, I realise that you aren't into the post-modern type scene, but hey, you really have deconstructed the whole pig-wolf archetypical relationship."

"Yeah yeah, I know. I SUPPOSE mid to late twentieth century literary criticism has its valid points just like anything else."

"And you know, like, the three of us could really be just fragmented elements of the auctorial psyche representing the id, ego and super-ego. Nevertheless, according to Derrida we can never truly know the auctorial intent. So within the cyber-reality in which we exist any such speculation says more about ourselves than the author."

"Just what have they been putting in your Strongbow recently?"
