I hope Conando will make an appearance.

It's sad that I'm not sure whether you're talking about the USA, or the UK.

It's even worse that these aren't the only 2 countries that can have this applied to them...they're just the only ones I have the willpower to name right now.

I live in a country in which scientific illiteracy is not only accepted, it's encouraged and venerated as a sign of intellectual freedom. We're not going to be living in the future until the public en masse understands that vaccine conspiracies are antiscientific nonsense, climate change is happening before our eyes,…

I defy you to go play Super Mario Bros 1 all the way through without using warp zones.

What are you even talking about? It's called Super Mario 3D World, because it's a full 3D game, like Mario 64, instead of a side-scroller, like Super Mario Bros. U.

What about this is sloppy or unbalanced? I don't understand how you could get that from the trailer at all...

Yeah, I gotcha. Although I feel like this is a book which is set in Gilead, of Roland's youth, but it has been sooooooo long since I've read it.

I liked the book, it was okay, but it didn't fill me with the same visceral dread that the film did. And it was nowhere near as rich, thematically.

King can't let it go because The Shining is one of his most personal works. It's a very in depth examination of his own substance abuse problems and how, like the hornets nest, harm the ones you love even when you are trying to do right by them. Jack Torrence takes action to remove himself from temptation - but the…

in my opinion, FIGHT CLUB is a very good book. but it's an amazing film.

Once you sell the rights to something, other folks can do with it what they want.

That's a matter of taste. Some viewers prefer the latter. But my point isn't that someone else couldn't make something better based on your work, but rather that the original creator has more right than anyone on Earth to criticize or praise that result.

I beg to differ. If what you say were true, then writers should never ever publish at all. However, I will give ya this: Once you sell the rights to something, other folks can do with it what they want. However, that doesn't mean that your opinion doesn't matter. As the original creator, you understand the work…

It kind of is a part of the series, as it is directly related to King's Dark Tower series. Even more so that other of this books.

The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King

I totally agree with you that this is not the time for the asker to be like 'Brad didn't text me back :(', but I think it's also unfair to expect your friends to completely revolve around your problems to the point where you get angry at them for expressing any other interests, or to be a punching bag for your…

Anecdotally...me! My Dad was on disability when I was growing up. We were definitely lower-middle class (and only that high because my Mom worked her ass off, and my Dad got money from his Mom.) Then, fairly suddenly, my grandmother died and left most of her money to him, then he died, and even though he only left a…

The incomes of the people in my family are drastically different from one section to the next. My parents are dependent on government aid, and I also have an aunt and uncle who are able to afford living (and raising a child) in Manhattan, and are professional musicians. Just because one branch of a family tree is…

The particularly shitty thing in the last one is that he said it was fine, then reneged and demanded money — weird and rude!
