1984 was pretty depressing, but good enough. War of the Worlds wasn't, in my eyes. The Count of Monte Cristo - I'm reading a translated version, and so I don't know if I can really judge it. Classic, BTW, is different from good writing. Classic means a certain element that makes the book memorable and a must-read, not necessarily good writing.

How is it a classic, if it's written poorly? There can be no discussion. Classics = Awesome writing.

 

And how can you not like War of the Worlds? Changed people's perception of life from other worlds.

 

I like bean soup...if it has salt.

Most soups contain salt... o.O

*sigh* Classics are considered classical not necessarily for good writing; you yourself gave evidence for War of the Worlds. Now, I'm not saying it's bad, but that it isn't good enough to rank with my all-stars.

Tolkien is bad.

*nods in a rare moment of accord with Anox*

Like... really, really bad.

* looks around *

Is Tolkien a spammer of Fiddlesticks?

* doesn't remember seeing him/her logged on here before *

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes.

I'm being silly.

;)

Yes you are GG and we love you.

;D

Boopsy? :P

*whacks Bale upside the head*

Happy Saturday Night!

Home.

Alone.

Spamming Fiddles.

Yeah!

:-\

Grandpa did you ever say what happened to your ex?

No, I don't believe the subject ever came up...why would anybody care about something that happened over 40 years ago?  ::)  That's the only ex that I have.  Been married for 36+ years to this wife.  The ex was just a girlfriend that wasn't meant to be.  I'm over it now.  But thanks for asking.  ;D

I was just curious :)

Good thing you're not a cat!  :o

;D

I wouldn't want to be a cat. :)

You're right. Being a fox is much cooler :P

Depends on the fox :)

Matt likes his fox.

Yes he does ;)

Matt likes his Raven too... ::)

Aww. That was cute!
