Saw this dialogue at Goodreads (paraphrasing)...
"I don't get that LUMBERJACK book cover. What's up with that?"
"I think it's supposed to be a take-off on the 1980s Fabio romance covers."
"Who's Fabio?"
WHAT?????????
DID YOU JUST SAY WHO'S FABIO?
(PENNY FAINTS)
OK. I do realize that I'm old as the hills. I do realize that many romance readers are young whipper snappers. But, come on! Fabio was like the King Of Romance Novel Covers! The big rippling muscles. The long flowing hair. And when he spoke (I Can't Believe It's Not Butter), his accented voice sent shivers down our spines.
Off to get some buttered toast,
Penelope
