This is really only a problem if you insist on paying attention to what the author has to say after finishing a book.  Learn to ignore it, and be happier.

Anyone who feels the need to ask “how does magic work, exactly?” should probably give up reading fantasy. I mean, not just “how does magic work”, but, “exactly”. Take all the wonder and mystery out of it, why don’t you?  Science fiction is the next shelf over.

It wasn’t just the allegory Tolkien hated. He also wasn’t a fan of the abysmal worldbuilding.

Enough already. The only reason Narnia is considered a fantasy classic is because, at the time it was written, there was hardly anything else. I wonder who these adaptations are for? The average fantasy fan has at least a dozen fantasy works they’d rather see adapted than Narnia, and non-fantasy fans aren’t

I don’t get the appeal of Belgariad. The ideas are lame and the writing is amateurish.

I was going to say I also gave up after 4 books, but then I remembered, I actually read 5 of the tedious things. It was annoying, because there were many things I liked about the series, such as the worldbuilding and epic scope.

What Matrix sequels?  I’m pretty sure they never made any.

Well, I sure am surprised that things didn’t work out with their previous black nanny.

I can’t help but feel that, instead of advising people on how to preserve a snapchat streak, this space would be better spent on advising people not to become so invested in something so utterly, mind-bogglingly trivial.

User reviews are pretty worthless anyway.  

They’re not represented equally, though. 

Win enough prizes to justify being a pro, or shut the fuck up and get a proper job and stop expecting to make a living playing a children’s card game.

No, it should be thrown out regardless of who wins, dickhead.

It’s a shit voting system that treats votes unequally. 

Bad analogy.

Is there any particular reason we should care about pain in a mindless animal? A lobster is as incapable of suffering as a rock.  

3 million people are 3 million people. It doesn’t matter what fucking state they’re in.

Pretty sure I heard a Wilhelm Scream in there...

Ugh, the PS1.  Suikoden II was the only decent game it had.  

I think I played that already.  Do the alien footsoldiers talk like Mr Blobby?
