THAT SHIT DOESN'T WORK FOR ME.

"A British study reported that of smokers who get lung cancer, "women are 1.7 time more vulnerable than man to get small-cell lung cancer."

as you might have guessed , its a mathe book. chapter differential equations.

There are 149 for the Quran. Most of them aren't notable.

The majority of the books I like don't have interesting negative reviews. Though I've noticed that the majority of 1 and 2 star ratings are by women. Girls don't like Sci-Fi?

I've noticed it's really a love/hate thing with the females. You'll rarely find one who's middleground about SF.

>>8369
as a work of fiction, it is absolute crap. plot holes, pages upon pages of lists and drivel, and overall a pretty poor read. there's nothing tongue in cheek about those reviews.

> Eeeee Eee Eeee

so you've been depressed ever since you read it? Me too.

There is a certain liberation in futility

I feel the same way. Tao, I think, is someone who "gets" it. I've had the attitude his characters have for a long time, but only once I started reading him did I start to think about it more and begin to understand it. And he nails that attitude best in Eeeee Eee Eeee out of all of his work.

If I get the chance to slip a dick into one without being caught I will so be doing this.

Easy targets aren't that fun to rail on.

I got an infuriating amount of Twilight fantards

I got Blood's A Rover today!
Soon as I finish Sea-Kings it will be on to the American Underworld series

Just bought this for £1 at a used bookshop.

It's in pretty perfect condition which makes me skeptical, but I'll give it a try anyway.

finished Sea-Kings, and finished Ellroys American Tabloid trilogy of which Blood's A Rover was the third and a final part, now just about down with The Dispossessed

you should read Seymour Hershs The Price of Power: Kissinger in the Nixon White House

The World Without Us by Alan Weisman. It's depressing to realise that humanity's most enduring memory will be plastic.

About halfway through it. I find Daniel Goleman's books are always interesting for me. I'm a psychfag so it makes sense. This one is a little older, but I like buying my books on sale, so I get a little behind sometimes. Still, awesome book.

The importance of the bible or of Homeric epics lies not in their literary merit. They both used to be transmitted orally.

They are important because of the impact they had.

I have nothing against atheists as long as they aren't vugal fools. That recent upsurge of atheist vulgarity we should thank, I think, to the pharmceutic industry and the MIC.

Indeed. A good parent shouldn't leave his child rot in the basement in the violent videogame extravaganza. :nods:

Though I'd slap both the developers and the parents.

Quake, MTV, the Oprah Show and various other fulminant forms of modern entertainment have made the people stop reading.

Previously an atheist, a christian, a liberal, a socialist and whatnot could, at least, discuss his opinion, he could justify his behaviour, he was conscious about where his life was heading.
