Oh, MrsJ, I'm not sure Kevin answered but he had told us in the past that English is his first language.

Kevin -
I haven't read this book, so I don't love it and know nothing about it. Could you explain, for me, why you hate this book you've never read?"
The reason is because I find everything about the 80s to be lame except the music and movies.

That is what I expected you would say.

I ♥ the 80s!

So everything except the vast majority of pop culture....
Kevin wrote: "The reason is because I find everything about the 80s to be lame except the music and movies."Funny, 5/21 of your favorite books are from the 80s...
Kevin wrote: "MrsJoseph wrote: "Did any of yall watch the roller skating movies?!"What are you from the south?"
Actually, yes. Yes I am. I'm from North Carolina. Where are you from?

Hey, I never dragged Dawn into this at all.
Kevin wrote: "The reason is because I find everything about the 80s to be lame except the music and movies. "Ok. I can understand not being interested in reading it because the subject matter doesn't interest you - we all make those choices.
But lack of interest is very different from hating something or finding it over-rated. Generally one should have some actual first hand knowledge of a thing to be so vehement against something - ya dig?
As a side point - wouldn't you have been born in the 80s, if your profile is correct?
Kevin wrote: "I can never win when all of you back me in a corner and start attacking me for one comment."Oh, bless your tiny little heart, it's never been just one comment. You keep spewing inanity and it's far too much fun to not respond. Plus, just think how boring it would be for you if everyone completely gave up on drilling some sort of sense into you.
Kevin wrote: "I can never win when all of you back me in a corner and start attacking me for one comment."So you can't win when people start pointing out what you said? Have you considering not saying dumb things?

FTW.

*snort*
Kevin wrote: "I can never win when all of you back me in a corner and start attacking me for one comment."Oh come on, Kevin. You know you're having a ball. Otherwise you wouldn't do this. I'm sure you're sitting at home, smoking a blunt and giggling like a schoolgirl. Look on the bright side: You spoke to Dawn today. ;-)

Please sir. Can I borrow some of that eye bleach??
I'm going to go eat something... No... Throw up... No... Drink. Drink and drink and drink. Why, paramour, why?

Of course it is. It's Ka.
I've already done a DT reread this year, but I have been thinking I need to read the GNs.Ka like a wheel... Circular like these discussions. Definitely a sign. ;)
You should... I love the GNs... They are really good, I like the tone of the narration, and the artwork is awesome. :)

There will be water if Ka wills it. That and, the aura of awesome badassery just never goes away.
Hey Mark.
Yeah, you, out there staring at your screen. Lurking. Mumbling profanities as you watch other folks have fun and goof off.
I want you to know that you're more than welcome to come back and rejoin this group whenever you want.
Y'know, the group you just quit? Right after you pitched one of the biggest hissyfits I've ever seen?
Yeah. This group.
You're welcome to rejoin.
See, I don't ban people for being assholes, usually. I ban real trolls and spammy authors. Assholes though, not so much. Since I'd have to ban myself.
So yeah.
If you feel like, I dunno, talking about whatever bug is up your ass instead of pitching a fit, feel free to rejoin.

Wow, that is one thing that I actually truly agree with you on. I guess there is a first time for everything.
