Doing this as a BR with the one and only Ms. Dumbass!
Mr. King sir, don't let me down here. Imma try and convert this non-believer into another Constant Reader! Make IT an awesome ride!

Let IT begin ! Tonnes of IT puns to be had!

Btw, how scary is Pennywise?!?! *shudders*

I! KNOW!
I swear I don't get how people find clowns funny! xD
Although, I guess as a parent it's important to not project your fears on your child :P
