Hope is important.
Quote: the doc, Sept 2010
It is really cool and different and interesting, I think.
It is not terrifying so much, I think. - It is pretty dark and creepy, and also it is really pretty and poetic too. It is really cool it is like three novels mixed together.
All the characters are pretty cynical and sceptical at the beginning, but they are really obsessive and paranoid at the end, but everything is really fake and psychological, still?
I think it is really different and creative.
Quote: wombat, Sept 2010I'm reading 'House of Leaves' by Mark Z Danielwski at the moment.
I've heard great things about this book, and it's pretty good so far, but not as terrifying as I'm lead to believe it should be as yet.
Anyone read it?
I thought it was a bag of sh*te, just a haunted house novel trying to be clever. Not much of a fan of all that post-modern, self-referencing stuff, personally.*

Steve-Dave:
Better the devil you know, though. How many of the sensible people would ever vote for Romney?
Walt Flanagan:
They're going to be non-votes, not votes for Barack.
Steve-Dave:
I doubt it. I'd say that with some of the stuff Romney will come out, people could vote Barack just to prevent Romney getting in.
Walt Flanagan:
Well, he's so clearly a terrible human being.
Walt Flanagan:
He's going to gaff his way out of the White House, even as the President is hated from all the sides of the spectrum that aren't starry eyed.
Walt Flanagan:
The GOP has gone too far towards the Stupid Bigot side of things, it may take years to get back.
Walt Flanagan:
I just think people who say that Obama would have to f*ck a white woman on television to not get elected are missing the danger.
Steve-Dave:
Oh I think Romney will still give Obama a run for his money. Romney flip-flops a lot. Could appeal to a wide enough base overall to run it close
oatibix:
Something's happened here.
Steve-Dave:
This is what happens when you leave Colin.
Steve-Dave:
And I don't mean "This is what happens when you leave, Colin", I mean this is what happens when you leave Colin. I left Colin and became all sensible and sh*t
Steve-Dave:
I'm an equivocating motherf*cker
Rayanne Graff:
Yeah, you're sh*t. i'm not sure about sensible, though.
Jimmy:
Holy sh*t everything's Barry.
Steve-Dave:
Everything's better!
Puffalump:
Barrier
Steve-Dave:
The Barryest it's ever been
Jimmy:
I can't wait for more "Important Barry and changes"
Steve-Dave:
Well there will be some Barry and changes coming soon, because we need more donations. It no longer just takes £10 a year to help Barry survive
Steve-Dave:
It takes like... £13
