    Light and Dark - Micro Story

    I have to agree. Even the point of view of something like an angel--you know, non-human force--would make it better. Not that it's bad. It's pretty good.

    William Faulkner

    Wow. I just started As I Lay Dying and I've never read anything like it before. I still can't decide whether or not I like it, seeing as I've barely read any, but it certainly is very different.

    Fantasy Movies

    I'm not sure if it's showing at any theaters near me. Is it showing in the US or do we have to wait for it to come out on DVD and order it from Europe?

    M. Night Shyamalan

    I liked Unbreakable--although I agree that his others were much better, and he got a lot of the info wrong on the bone disease he used, Osteogenesis Imperfecta. My brother has the same disease, so I know. He described OI Type 4 as "not living very long." The type he was describing is actually...

    The Evil "Wish" Game

    Granted, but you play a parody of yourself so humiliating that you go crazy in your despair and go on a crusade with a bunch of right-wing Christian radicals, preaching about how the makers of the Simpsons are in league with the devil. I wish that I owned a little fairy that granted all of my...

    Moon Landing: Real or Fake?

    ...have you seen someone about this problem yet? O_o Just kidding. I laughed my ass off over the whole thing. (And I'm really behind on this thread.)

    Pronunciation

    I'm American, but I'd probably say jen-eh just because it sounds more professional and I'm weird like that.

    Cheesy movies

    I have to agree with that. I absolutely LOVE RHPS.

    plot ideas, conflict ideas.

    I think this would be the appropriate place to mention a piece of advice I heard from one of the makers of the TV show M*A*S*H* when I was watching one of the 30th Anniversary shows. It went something along the lines of "Always put your characters where they least want to be." To add to the...

    Books we will never read

    How to Check You're Not Overusing Profanity by Stephen King How to Act Like Successful and Mature Businesspeople by Rosie O'Donnel and Donald Trump

    need help with grammar.

    That's true. It's kind of a personal style thing to some degree. Personally, I love using lots of commas. I think they're great for dramatic effect. My mother, on the other hand, tends to underuse them. When I was in fourth grade she was going to college and used to have me proofread her...

    The Evil "Wish" Game

    Granted, but it's a crappy last-generation model with a slow scroll function and it doesn't have enough room for all of your songs. I wish one of my books was published.

    The Evil "Wish" Game

    Granted, but they get rid of all their best players and you wind up hating them. I wish that someone would make a movie of my life.

    Can people really change?

    Surely there's SOMEONE who wants to move into an apartment? Or will they not let you until July?
  16. ValkyrieRaven88

    Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LOL. It wasn't that hard; I agreed to pay for part of it. And I'm eighteen, so I didn't really need their permission to go. I needed their permission to say that they'd pay for it. Anyway, my mother grew up poor and would have dearly loved to go to Europe (my father's only been a couple...

    The "Ctrl+V" Game

    “How about a game?...I could find us a ball and wall-hoop and teach you two the Aztec ball game. It’s great fun. You have to use your knees and elbows to get the ball through the hoop. That’s the only rule. Oh, and the losers get sacrificed. I’m very good at it, as you’ll discover.”...

    The Evil "Wish" Game

    Wow. That's a really hard one to add an evil side to. I'll let someone more talented try their hand at it.

    Inspiration vs. Stealing a Story

    I like Paolini, but I do think he could been edited better. His writing's kind of dry and he borrows way too much. I didn't realize it so much because I am, to my immortal shame, not a LOTR fan. Anyway, he's not brilliant, but his books are fairly entertaining. I'll be buying the third book...

    Rejected children's book titles

    Only the last one is slightly familliar. Those are great! I'm out of ideas, personally. Imagination dried out. You know how it goes.
