I’m on the 7th and most recent.

The thru line meanders a bit, but not too bad. I wish I had read them chronological instead of in order (5 and 6 are swapped, and 6 is a bit different tone)

I think of them as popcorn books. Very light, quick reads. I actually read the first two on a flight back from Europe. Definitely fun, somewhat predictable/formulaic but it doesn’t take anything away for me.

It’s because they used the prequel bullshit by Kevin J. Anderson as a basis. He is a shit writer.

I would much rather see a God Emperor series. There is so much you could do with that.

Some buddies and I actually got an old firebird with a blown head gasket for lemons. Got it running, and then realized how much more we would have to pay for all the safety gear… We were still willing but had some disagreements for who was gonna pay what when and so the main backer pulled out and the dream went up in smoke…

I definitely remember hearing “Here put this helmet and [thick] jacket on”… “Stay there and wait” etc

I was the younger brother. I was “willing” to do a lot of things I knew were bad ideas.

The sun wasn’t alive in Sunshine. People just be crazy.

The World at the End of Time does have a plasma based intelligence though

Should have a price option to calculate value.

Is that the type they put in turon? I love those things.

Kinda makes me think of Filipino spaghetti. Banana ketchup and hotdogs! Actually not as bad as it sounds.

Basic: Lime and garlic salt. Bonus: Pico de Gallo (with lots of fresh garlic and lime juice)

To answer your question, no it is not valid. The fact that you don’t actually stand by the word offended really answers yourself.

Why choose “offended” as the verb here? I’m not saying I’ve never seeing an offensive movie… But what you described is an annoyance at most.

It’s almost as if you are claiming offense to be contrarian.

He wanted to grok it?

This was my take as well. They only realized the MAGA folks were racist when they called Indians filthy.

When they were calling mexicans rapists and murders 😴

When they said africa was full of shithole countries 😴

I could go on, but it is kinda exhausting. Coming up next is the working class people when they start getting called white trash. Its coming once they consolidate enough power and dont need them anymore.

This presupposes there is some music you stopped listening to after high school, Im with you, I still listen to a bunch of that stuff. Some not as often as others, but it brings back memories. I was a metal head though and there was a lot of great 90s metal.

My brother loves his xterra so much he is on his 3rd (first was an accident, second went to the ex in the divorce). I rarely ride in it, but it seems kinda like a rattle trap to me. I dont know how much of that is his abuse and how much is the car.

Part 1 is the first act, somewhat expanded. The additions are pretty seamless and add a bit to the story. Its been a long time since I saw the play, but there is only one part I was sure wasn’t in the original

If you are into the play you would probably like it. I went with my wife and daughters and they loved it. I found it enjoyable enough. As someone who isn’t super into the play, it was paced well, with some good comical elements.

Really what TuEstUnePommeDeTerre did was help us with ours. “Do your homework” is the laziest phrase, I cannot express how much I hate it. Its a phrase of dismissal. If you have a kid that is struggling, you should HELP them with their homework, not just tell them to do it. I say this because I think it is emblematic of the intellectual laziness of the folks who use this phrase thinking of it as punctuation in their winning argument.

Lol

I’m not a programmer but I have at least one double booking every day. Some weeks look like a brick wall sideways (they seem to always overlap by a half hour for some reason).
