Sometimes when I start to put on a maxi dress for a little afternoon stroll, I remember that you never hear about the ghost of a young woman walking along the side of the road wearing cargo pants.
Edgar Allan Poe uses live burial, the death of a beautiful young woman, and narrators haunted by some guilt or loss to the point of madness the way that Taco Bell uses ground beef, refried beans, and cheese. This isn't exactly a diss, but he really does squeeze an impressive number of crowd-pleasing combinations out of the same few ingredients.
