I am older. I have thought about it better. Trust me, i WANT to read. I want to experience that "sit down by a cozy fire with a warm cup of coco and read a book" feeling but then i realize how much better it is to sit down by a cozy fire with a warm cup of coco and watch Ironman(for example) on bluray. Books still make for great toilet paper and door stoppers though.
So i have to finish a book in order to form an opinion? You are ****ing ********. Ive halfway or 1/4 of the way read trillions of books. Most are so boring to finish yet i still know whats going on and can still see how it doesnt stack up to movies.
well, it's not like that's a hype scene or anything.
1. Argument does not =opinion
I have been off an on reading this book about the making of the first atomic bomb(history/weapon=my fav things to read about) and its not good at all. Its taken me 2 years to get halfway through it. So yea, if a book has things in it that i like and its STILL not good.....finishing one book IS painful.
You are ********. You as well as everybody else on this planet form opinions about movies/books/games/people with out knowing it all or finishing it.
If my argument consists of my opinion then yes it does =opinion. And i dont care/have never cared if people respect my opinion. They can deal with it.
yes! Melee day sideffect!
Aren't we talking about movies and books? Not documentaries and books? Documentaries (the equivalent of historical nonfiction) are not the same as action movies, which we have been discussing this whole time.
I didn't make an opinion or assumption. You just told me the last book you read was in 7th grade. Hank the Cowdog.
I gave you an example of a book that has 2 things i REALLY like in it. And since i said the book is not good then that means there is no hope of finding a random book good that doesnt have those 2 things.
Dude you read it 100% wrong.
its a dead game
I've read up to Shadow of the Hegemon. I don't even know which is my favorite, they're all so good. Although I've definitely read Ender's Game more than any of the others.
I took AR tests for people over Little Women (36 points) from 3rd grade through 5th. $5 each. It was pretty badass.
You all have to realize that Xyro's opinion on this doesn't come from mental stimulation, like thinking and that kind of thing., he's arguing for physical (visual) stimulation. It's simpler and requires no effort on the part of the person being entertained, which in his opinion = better, because that's what he wants. Doesn't care about theme and meaning and stuff, just cheap, mindless thrill. It's like arguing about tastes in music. Classical music has all the wonderful elements and such. Music like rap and punk are very straight-forward (simple) with often catchy beat. It's two completely different things, two completely different purposes for listening. You'll never get anywhere, unfortunately.
Right. They cant handle my opinion. I knew you would see it eventually.
Well now that I think about it, I also wouldn't care if people respected my opinion about literature if the last book I read was in 7th grade about a Cowdog. Just sort of seems that's the way things should be.
There isn't a true order so I don't really know which ones you've read, haha.
........
Green beans or refried?
Noo I can't see it. It was a plot twist.. Gotta wait for the ending to actually see it ; )
Interesting. I've never even heard of half of those xD I'm hyped. hahahaaNeither.
I found this awesome flowchart of how they're supposed to be read.

I'm gonna reread Ender's Game side, then Ender's Shadow side. And maybe some short stories also.
Lmaoooo. My incorrect info was referring back to your argument with Gea. It was regarding stuff he called you out on but gave up on explaining because he realized that with your sub-par knowledge of literature combined with other things that in the end he would just be wasting energy.
I'm on course, I guess, just need the short stories. Didn't even know there were any. Unfortunately, there's no good book store nearby :/
