Evening everypony. What's going on?

Yeah, Andromeda is heading for you. You got over 9000 years until it collides.

Hmph, you nerds and your fancy reading booking.

Come on, books are awesome. I prefer books that are really about something though, I usually stay away from "fine literature."

We seem to be sniping at each other for some reason.

Ray Bradbury is dead, Orion. I'm getting over my grief.

How did they ever lock the trope page of Lolita?

#216307 Chadaman 99 Wed, 6th Jun '12 7:58:46 PM

I said it before, the only novel I ever read completely was Fable: The Balverine Order.

Oh christ there was an obnoxious guy on one of the threads on this site going on about how LOTR shouldn't be classed as literature

Lenght of book =/= complexity of themes or level of reading

@ginger: Well, fuck him then.

What Bradbury can do in 15 pages amazes me.

The first time I started reading Harry Potter, I was too scared of Snape to continue. It wasn't until a couple years later that I read the series.

Life is simple: it has no nontrivial normal subgroups.

@Ginger. Oh this oughta be good.

Maybe he's like that guy who always got better grades on essays then me, despite not doing the reading.

I remember rereading Go F in junior high and nearly throwing up in the lunch line because of the resurrection scene.

I swear he was a troll. He must've been. Either that or he was insane.

Going on about how LOTR isn't high brow enough and sophisticated for true fans of literature. He even laughed at people who said it was well written. I honestly wanted to ask him for an example of a book he actually liked. For some reason I never got around to it

You just absorb what everyone else says about the story, and then you don't need to actually read it.

And Applejack is here too!
