On her bed in her house trailer at the trailer park in Stephen City, VA, Monica opened her laptop and looked again at \u201cAmy Tells All.\u201d She read the latest installment about the \u2018Book of Demons\u2019 and liked it. She really felt for Amy. She could feel, with her female ear to the ground, and her instinct turned up full blast, the blade at Amy\u2019s throat. She clicked her way, opening Facebook in a new tab, and pasted Amy\u2019s link into status update. \u201cI like this woman a lot. I think she\u2019s amazing. I\u2019m a bit worried for her, tho.\u201d
\nMonica was a Facebook lightweight at 191 friends, but she had several that took a look at \u201cAmy Tells All.\u201d<\/p>\n
One of these was Jim, her former boyfriend. He\u2019d moved away and now lived in Nebraska. At his kitchen table, he opened his laptop and saw the post about \u201cAmy.\u201d He clicked. He read the one about masturbation. He laughed all the way through it. He thought she was dope. He messaged his friend about her.<\/p>\n
In her dorm room in Urbana, Linda was on Facebook when she saw a thing about \u201cAmy.\u201d She read some of it and liked it. It had already accumulated quite a few likes. She shared it.<\/p>\n
In his dorm room in Cambridge, MA, Thom saw his friend Linda\u2019s like of a woman named \u201cAmy.\u201d He checked out the site and thought she was beautiful and funny. He sent the link along, both on his Facebook page and his blog, \u201cHog Tied at Harvard.\u201d<\/p>\n
In his flat in London, Basil saw that his buddy from his exchange student days had blogged about \u201cAmy.\u201d His friend had impeccable taste, so he followed the link. He was charmed. He commented, \u201cShe\u2019s quite lovely, and her language is the height of American screech.\u201d He was a well-connected dude with thousands of Facebook friends all over the world\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026So, in his apartment in Tokyo, Akio became familiar with Amy. Amy made Ivan in Kiev crack up. Everybody speaks English, pretty much, at least enough to read Amy.<\/p>\n
So it came to pass, that with each passing day, Amy went just a bit more viral.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
