A very strong four out of five. I believe existing fans of the Tingleverse would likely rate this one 5/5. It was surprisingly deep and hard to unpack all of the meaning written into such a short piece. I'd say, quite a bit of girth here. I probably would have bumped it up to 5/5 if some key details had been firmed up and lengthened.

If you don't want to commit to the $3 version on Amazon or if you don't have a Kindle, check out the free podcast online. It's a great introduction to the author's work.

My book club picked this one up recently and we had a lively discussion. I'd recommend it to any similar groups. To help facilitate, here's a Discussion Guide that I came up with. Feel free to modify as you see fit for your own group.

1) The author is known for his clever use of words. The time travel project was called “Cronos” but the commonly accepted transliteration of the Greek word for time, Χρόνος, is actually “Chronos”. The word “Cronos” refers to the leader and youngest of the first generation of Titans in Greek mythology, with the scythe as his symbol. However, in pre-Socratic philosophy and Greek literature, “Chronos” is the personification of time. Why did the author choose to use the transliterated word for a Titan instead of the word for the personification of time, when the story is clearly about time travel?

2) In the Tingleverse, most characters are lacking exacting physical descriptions or even single features. In this classic novella, the boss man Mr. Whippo is given a tightly cropped beard. What is the significance of this beard?

3) The megacorporation, Butt Industries, does plenty of research and development in high tech weaponry and environmentally efficient solutions. In an expert move by Dr. Tingle—the characters working for this company neglect to even mention that these product areas may be in conflict with one another—leaving it entirely up to the reader to decide how a person can work at a company that holds such underlying conflicting values. Reconcile these two contradictory notions.

4) As every informed reader and linguist is well aware, Dr. Tingle has given the main character of this story, Rhondok, a cleverly meaningful name. For the lazy readers that missed it or the readers that are simply ignorant of other languages, “Rhondak” is the Hungarian equivalent to the English name “Rhonda”. What significance is the expertful author attempting to convey?

5) Throughout various forms of media, time travel machines take on many different forms. From H.G. Wells mechanical chair to Doc Brown’s DeLorean, descriptions of time machines are wildly different and each hold meaning within the context of the larger story, cultural expectations, and technology for the time period. Given that Dr. Tingle describes his time machine as “a massive white sphere, sitting atop three pedestals and humming a low, strange drone. Its surface is metallic but shimmers with a strange pearly current, flickers of electricity that dance and play while they run down every side.”—what deeper meaning is the good Doctor Tingle implying with his description?

6) After using the time traveling device, the main character (Rhondok) encounters a strange, studly humanoid with a giant clock for a head. The clock-headed creature describes itself as “I’m you, I’m me, I’m everything.” Some scholars believe that this hard-bodied clock represents not only God but the concept of God in the Tingleverse. Do you agree or disagree? Why?

7) Detractors, claiming that Dr. Tingle’s seminal work around time travel, have often pointed to the passage below as evidence of his poor writing abilities. However, grammar scholars worldwide have proven their claims to be contrary to the true facts of reality (i.e. Fake News). Give the following passage to your local book club grammar expert and let them explain how it is, in fact, grammatically correct.

I pop my ass out towards him, wiggling it playfully as Time eye by puckered butthole with a ravenous hunger.

8) The world renowned author, Doctor Chuck Tingle, PhD, is known for adeptly breaking the fourth wall during some of his innovative stories. In this one, he does so by directly interacting with the main character and you, the reader. Just how brilliant is he? Are you not amazed? Discuss.

9) The big red button obviously holds monumental significance. What does it mean to you?

10) Why are billionaires so hot?

11) Does Rhondok retain any of his memories of being past characters in other stories from the Tingleverse such as a bigfoot that was a lawyer and a doctor? There is a right answer here so please discuss the only correct answer to this question with your group.

12) This amazing story by Doctor Tingle, PhD, shares similar themes to his other works such as Domald Tromp Pounded In The Butt By His Fabricated Wiretapping Scandal Made Up To Redirect Focus Away From His Seemingly Endless Unethical Connections To Russia and Space Raptor Butt Invasion as well as Open Wide For The Handsome Sabertooth Dentist Who Is Also A Ghost. What are the major themes across Doctor Tingle, PhD’s works that have personally affected you and improved your life?

13) The Good Doctor Chuck Tingle, PhD is a pseudonym but his credentials are real. Many speculate that the author uses a pen name to disguise his or her real identity because they are already quite famous and choose to live a double life as a literary author. What is the real identity of the author?

I love metaliterature and gay sex with abstract concepts. Sometimes I find the prose a little confusing - on a sentence level, rather than plot - but it's not a huge deal.

This totally slammed me in the butt with some unexpected twists that made me properly invested in the Tingleverse.

I lost my Chuck Tingle virginity back in 2016, the same year that I started testosterone, and these are the only 2 important events of that year. I then did not consume a single Chuck Tingle erotica for roughly a decade, which I realized recently while cleaning out my list of podcasts I wanted to listen to that I never got around to and had to make the harrowing decision of whether or not to remove Pounded In The Butt By My Own Podcast. I proceded to pull up Dr. Tingle's Tumblr (the only social media that exists in current year after all the others exploded), searching for insight into whether or not I should pull the trigger, and saw he has made quite a lot of content since my departure from the Tingle wagon. I used my daddy bezos credits to acquire whatever he had most recently linked. To my frugal delight, the purchase contained not one but TWO Tinglers!

So I sat down at 4 am with 2 double shots of espresso (4 espressos?) coursing through my sickly vitamin D deficient body and cracked open my fresh Tinglers. I instantly became immersed in a world I forgot existed - equal parts nostalgic and novel. The first story was good enough, but the second?

I have come to realize what exactly has been missing in my life for the past 10 years. It is this book, Slammed In The Butthole By My Concept Of Linear Time. I am back in the Tingle fandom. Tingledom? We'll learn the fandom terminology later. We have a lot of catching up to do if the 10 pages of titles categorized by fantasy creature and/or trope at the end of this ebook is anything to go by.

Anyway. This was a good story, 4.5/5; wish Time was a bear instead of a muscled hunk but I do understand the literary importance of this decision, so it gets rounded up to 5.

This was yet another fun installment to the Tingleverse. I really enjoyed how this one broke the fourth wall more and more as the story went along, while establishing connections between itself and other works by Dr. Tingle. Because there was so much happening in this one, however, between the breaking of the fourth wall, the ways in which the universe was expanded upon, and numerous plot twists, I did find myself wishing this had been a novelette or a novella, rather than a short story. The revelations we got would have felt more satisfying to me if the book had taken more time to build to them.

I've only read a handful of Tinglers, but I think it's already clear that I like them more the more ridiculously meta they get. Chuck himself having lines in this story, the main character trying to talk directly to the reader, and the connections to other Tinglers all made me greatly enjoy this story.

well, Chuck Tingle knows I'm not into the sexy part. Shoot. He's on to me. What if... what if -I- am a character in a Chuck Tingle Book? Are there any characters that aren't handsome men and/or dinosaurs? I might be a dinosaur...

Dear Rhondok, I want to let you know that even though you don’t live in my world, I still take your question seriously, and I hope Chuck will let you know that I intended to laugh AND get off, and DID laugh and get off. I hope you enjoyed being a billionaire jet.

This is probably my least favorite Tingler so far. The concept is creative, but my personal standard for Dr. Tingle's work is if it makes me question my sense of sexual preferences, kinks, sexuality, gender, or being. This one didn't.

I was surprised

I was surprised to find that Chuck can actually write. It's funny as hell, even the raunchy parts. I may buy another one.

Obviously, hilarious. Does get weirdly meta at one point where the characters become aware they’re not just characters and have a discussion with the author but very enjoyable.

I wasn't sure where to put this, but since it generally fits here a bit better, I'll go with that choice. Apparently, there is a whole thing around this author that I had been blissfully unaware of until a friend posted on Facebook. Thanks, Friend.

Anyway, I'm generally amused by the genre so I thought I'd give one a whirl. The best news is that it was short. The sexy bits were meh, so if you're reading for that, you can do much, much better elsewhere. The humor and fourth-wall breaking were both a bit more amusing. And did I mention it was short? As with any story of this length, I have a hard time rating since it is so short (I always enjoy my hijinks to be more fully developed).

But no matter what you do, do not take those three stars to mean it was good by any literary standard.
