no i havent.. perhaps i should start back there.. but i'm not really sure if its 'my thing' or not... i'm more a sci-fi bod these days... william gibson/phillip k dick/aldous huxley/bruce sterling/neal stephenson... but its hard to find things in the style i like which is non-generic cyberpunk.. too many writers trying too hard to emulate esp. to copy gibsons style (actually his style from 10 years ago) and still not hitting the mark... I don't know where to look to find the kind of information I need.. so called 'classics' i should read are out of print too :(

Harry Potter is Over Rated
If you have these books and you're over 12 or 14 then you need to seek some help.

"If you have these books and you're over 12 or 14 then you need to seek some help"
this from a guy who says he's a hip hop fan an says john cena is the best rapper.
"800 pages fuck that i get bored after the first page of a book ..."
lol i know what u mean .if u read a book ur not into, a page can seem like a chapter...this happens to me every month my arabic teacher makes us read a book an summarise it....
-
fuck harry potter, that shit is gay as fuck.

*raises eyebrow*
I love how people who never read it hate on it.
I refused to read it for ages, then one day, I was bored, so I read my nephew's copy of "Philosopher's Stone". Wigthin three days, I had read "Chamber of Secrets", "Prisoner of Azkaban" and "Goblet of Fire".
I got "Order of the Phoenix" on Saturday. It was finished by 6am Sunday.
-
i read the first one for a book report in middle school lol,i definately couldnt go through reading another

i've seen one of the movies and it sucked. and do I need to listen to ja rule's album to realize he sucks fat donkey cock? No, its extremely obvious.

fuck that. Harry Potter is for 8 year olds.I never plan to see any of the movies. Nor Lord of the Rings. Every computer nerd in the world has seen this one.I never will.
-
The reason I say that John Cena is the Best Rapper is as a joke.
But he is funnier then any other rapper out there.
-
harry potter is "bootlegged" and "ripped" .. the new book can be found on internet as a pdf and word-document, perfect quality, not "scanned" ....
lol...
im actually reading it right now...
-
Lord of the rings sucked IMO.
Just Willow but with a ring instead of a baby.

Bez, Grundy, Primo, you DO realize there is a difference betwene books (things with words on paper) and movies (moving pictures with noise)?

no I wasn't aware of that. no wonder those things with words didn't fit in the dvd player. Dammit!

I agree on the LOTR comment.. I will never ever see them.. They dont take my eye.
But to say that harry potter is for 8 year olds.. Well... If you have even read a chapter of any of the books you would relaise they are not. Due to the vocabulary that is used. The reason your prolly saying it is for 8 year olds is cuz of all the marketing around it. I'd say that the book is aimed at 16+ beacuse of its content and vocab
