Backstory to the question/conversation: I got an email from ThinkGeek yesterday and it advertised a t-shirt with the Tree of Gondor on it. And then suddenly it was like the season finale from Season…Continue

I'm driving to VidCon from Indiana, and I was just wondering if anyone else was making a long trek by car. I just planned out where I'm staying (I've decided to camp every night during the trip,…Continue

So I started reading Vonnegut like a year ago with Slaughterhouse 5 and loved it. I moved on to Cat's Cradle and finished it in one sitting. Then I read Breakfast of Champions. It just seemed…Continue

Well I actually didn't save England, just a London landmark. In mine I was on the London Eye and the axle of the Eye broke, so climbed out and fixed to be as good as new with chewing gum. My friend's story was a bit more awesome, he was a super hero called "The Ginger" (as his hair is very much ginger) and he fought his arch nemesis who was Queen Elizabeth II's evil twin sister (I can't remember what her name was, but it was something clever like Elizabeth 1/2).
Tea with the Queen would be pretty awesome. On the first day in my college writing class our teacher made us write a standard "What Did You Do This Summer" paper, but he told us it could be made up. So my friend and I (we both went to England this summer for a school trip), without knowing what the other was writing, both made up a whole story about saving England and having tea with the Queen. Sorry for the random story, but yeah... tea with the Queen... that would be cool :)
Thanks! Your DFTBA initialism is pretty cool too. And I totally agree on who you would do your happy dance with. The other day I was talking to my family and we were talking about if we could meet anyone who would it be, and I said that if it was a fictional person it would be the Doctor, if it was a real but dead person it would be J.R.R.Tolkien, and I was unsure on a real and alive person (I think I finally decided that I would like to meet J.K. Rowling).
Ohthanks.
I'm not too familiar with Dostoevsky, BUT I've been meaning to read things by him for awhile.
I also can't even pronounce his name in my head, it's just this weird jumble of sounds that begin with a D.
We could just cheer them both up. And while we're at it - Van Gogh. But like - stay there. And then Amy would be happy, and Van Gogh would live and askngjrngu4 this is the perfect way to hypothetically decrease worldsuck. Is that supposed to be two words?
I tried to read "The Princess Bride", but, I was a bit too young to understand it or find it interesting. I'll probably pick it up again. I love the movie, though. The swordfighting, the characters, the plot. It's just brilliant.
ERMAGERD YOU LIKE PRINCESS BRIDE!! I LOVE THAT MOVIE!! That movie's my childhood right there! 8D
