People become lesbians for no reason! beetnemesis Send a noteboard - 17/09/2012 04:34:20 PM
I love those games, but those books were some of the worst pieces of crap I'd ever seen.


You might give Dunja ideas. She does enjoy reading my reactions to crappy lit }<img class=' />
I amuse myself.

This may be one of the most dire reviews you shall ever read Larry - 09/09/2012 09:12:25 PM 2267 Views
Certainly one of the most original, you get points for that. Legolas - 09/09/2012 10:39:00 PM 1526 Views
Well... Larry - 09/09/2012 10:57:25 PM 1529 Views
A review of a D&D bestiary could be more dire. Stephen - 09/09/2012 11:29:17 PM 1374 Views
Perhaps Larry - 09/09/2012 11:50:20 PM 1471 Views
Hey now. Owlbears are awesome. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:35:28 AM 1706 Views
That page is painful to behold Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:09:29 AM 1484 Views
They are popular as they are fun, easy reading books Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:11:24 AM 1456 Views
"Popular", "Fun," and "Easy" doesn't have to be equated with poorly-written Larry - 10/09/2012 12:16:27 AM 1615 Views
Poorly written by what standard? Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:29:17 AM 1552 Views
By the standards of what I enjoyed as a nine year-old? Larry - 10/09/2012 01:04:12 AM 1506 Views
So like I said, by the standards of Elitist Literary Snobs Wibble - 11/09/2012 12:03:08 AM 1576 Views
Nice attempt at sophistry, but alas, it fails Larry - 11/09/2012 12:38:24 AM 1509 Views
Was that meant to make any sense? Wibble - 11/09/2012 01:43:13 AM 1656 Views
Re: Was that meant to make any sense? Larry - 11/09/2012 01:54:23 AM 1506 Views
I'm with Wibble on this (big surprise) HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 03:07:53 PM 1590 Views
Heh. James - 12/09/2012 03:43:52 PM 1719 Views
Pretty much so Larry - 12/09/2012 04:19:35 PM 1632 Views
When did you put up that header? Stephen - 12/09/2012 04:35:20 PM 1501 Views
I didn't put it up Larry - 12/09/2012 04:51:32 PM 1414 Views
I shall tread lightly so. Stephen - 12/09/2012 06:15:51 PM 1539 Views
Larry - 12/09/2012 07:25:29 PM 1384 Views
+6 health? What game are you playing? Tom - 12/09/2012 07:52:52 PM 1437 Views
The Game of Life? Larry - 12/09/2012 08:23:53 PM 1512 Views
Re: Pretty much so HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 08:50:57 PM 1539 Views
You apparently do not read my blog/reviews much Larry - 12/09/2012 09:07:18 PM 1556 Views
Actually, I read them almost never HyogaRott - 13/09/2012 03:07:48 PM 1569 Views
I think my IQ dropped a little bit when I parsed what you said Larry - 13/09/2012 04:16:21 PM 1539 Views
Yep, your usual rebuttal... *NM* HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 02:14:56 PM 770 Views
No, not really Larry - 17/09/2012 06:25:15 PM 1358 Views
Yes, Yes, wrap yourself in arrogance and declare yourself correct until your opposite gets bored... HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 11:12:17 PM 1656 Views
Nah, I just wipe my ass with arrogance Larry - 18/09/2012 12:23:44 AM 1911 Views
The last word with me is rather difficult to obtain HyogaRott - 18/09/2012 02:48:03 PM 1464 Views
Don't try to argue with them. They've made their judgments. They are better than you. lord-of-shadow - 10/09/2012 09:36:17 PM 1485 Views
Defensive much? *NM* Larry - 10/09/2012 10:31:17 PM 817 Views
Perhaps. It's annoying, because I tend to agree with you guys - you and Tom and Stephen. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:32:28 AM 1481 Views
The odd thing that there wasn't any belittling on my part -see other response. *NM* Larry - 11/09/2012 03:17:36 AM 737 Views
For the record, I wasn't trying to be condescending in my response. Tom - 11/09/2012 05:52:29 PM 1499 Views
He never said you couldn't enjoy it. Stephen - 10/09/2012 11:10:11 PM 1611 Views
Indeed Larry - 10/09/2012 11:17:20 PM 1483 Views
But they aren't. Wibble - 10/09/2012 11:48:14 PM 1526 Views
Prove it. *NM* Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:12:17 AM 734 Views
He also went on to compare liking the books to having the standards of a nine-year-old. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:34:18 AM 1472 Views
You didn't read what I said very well then Larry - 11/09/2012 03:16:21 AM 1459 Views
You're right. In the context of this thread, I'm basically acting like a raving lunatic. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:48:19 PM 1509 Views
It's not like any of us have ever been innocent 100% of the time Larry - 11/09/2012 03:49:22 PM 1453 Views
I believe that they were not meant for adults. Tom - 10/09/2012 12:30:05 AM 1489 Views
Very few of my friends were reading the books; some played the game, though Larry - 10/09/2012 01:06:07 AM 1467 Views
Basically, both get dubious kudos for trying something new by the dire standards of the day. Werthead - 10/09/2012 11:38:22 PM 1521 Views
Interesting point Larry - 11/09/2012 12:41:01 AM 1459 Views
Are you aware of the game's alignment rules? Some of the novels struggle with this. Werthead - 12/09/2012 10:58:37 PM 1520 Views
Not aware of it at all until now Larry - 12/09/2012 11:18:57 PM 1487 Views
How is that possible? Tom - 12/09/2012 11:28:33 PM 1441 Views
My dad was (and is) influenced by Evangelicals Larry - 13/09/2012 12:17:36 AM 1385 Views
Wait, so you didn't read the Chronicles first? Tom - 13/09/2012 02:12:13 PM 1383 Views
No Larry - 13/09/2012 02:18:03 PM 1441 Views
Well, it's sort of like starting Jordan at Lord of Chaos Tom - 13/09/2012 05:18:23 PM 1469 Views
Oddly enough, I started WoT at CoS in November 1997 Larry - 13/09/2012 05:56:04 PM 1412 Views
Chronicles is considerably weaker Werthead - 13/09/2012 11:14:38 PM 1476 Views
Needless to say, once I finish reading the Icewind Dale trilogy, I'm done with D&D Larry - 14/09/2012 12:38:47 AM 1631 Views
12 modules, not 15 Tom - 14/09/2012 02:55:39 PM 1637 Views
These threads are so much better than the rape threads! *NM* Dan - 12/09/2012 04:03:01 AM 844 Views
You're just waiting to see if I'll use hexameter in the next one *NM* Larry - 12/09/2012 04:32:31 AM 669 Views
When do we get to see some alexandrines? *NM* Stephen - 12/09/2012 12:41:29 PM 747 Views
Or quatrains? Larry - 12/09/2012 03:25:13 PM 1354 Views
And having now finished Dragonlance: Legends, its very own sonnet Larry - 13/09/2012 12:31:51 PM 1464 Views
At least you didn't read the Baldur's Gate novelizations beetnemesis - 14/09/2012 04:29:17 AM 1403 Views
Sssssh! Larry - 14/09/2012 05:10:19 AM 1463 Views
People become lesbians for no reason! beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:34:20 PM 1324 Views
I think my IQ dropped further upon learning of this Larry - 17/09/2012 06:29:29 PM 1357 Views
Baldurs Gate wooooo! Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:13:34 PM 1581 Views
Eh, Star Wars Expanded Universe I could see reading. Some of them are supposed to be good beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:37:05 PM 1830 Views
Is the review dire because of the subject or the sonnet form? Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:24:37 PM 1513 Views
Both Larry - 14/09/2012 04:36:59 PM 1438 Views
it would be unusual for someone to just randomly pick books like that up Foxhead - 14/09/2012 05:05:37 PM 1739 Views
Interesting scenario Larry - 14/09/2012 10:16:11 PM 1428 Views
Re: Interesting scenario Foxhead - 15/09/2012 09:55:59 AM 1693 Views
