Haven't read it yet Larry Send a noteboard - 14/09/2010 05:40:37 AM
The mind boggles at the idea that a book exists that you haven't read, but that particular book is so funny for our generation. Or, well, I like it at least, so I thought I should suggest anyway. Or maybe I'll go get Tom with it to see what he thinks.


Maybe in the near future. I'm eventually going to get back into reading more social commentaries, but too often I just find myself preparing to argue with the author's points. Academia is like an addiction; it affects your mind :P
