Jaxom 1974 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I apologise for the odd type - it was out of line, - is this any better? Totally failed the test. Don't apologize for the font. Seize life, damn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pita Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I apologise for the odd type - it was out of line, - is this any better? ... no... I prefered the old one. It made your posts show a better presence. You seemed like a real shining.. thingy. Yeah, puns suck. Anyway, how about some information? It's not every day we get a TG fan. We scared the last one off a while ago, unless you consider me as well, and I've been converted for a pretty long time also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankenGregor Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I watched the Confessor release interview on Youtube and it was crushingly disapointing. He was somewhat modest, not really pompous at all, and respectfully gracious to his readers. God damn-it, where is the Yeard I know with his "I don't write like any other authors" act? Although it did seem like a produced and edited thing so they probably cut out all of his more authentic moments. It would appear the BRINGER OF THE BRINGER OF DEATH can't be quite so outspoken when his publisher is footing the bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diabloblanco18 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Though I suppose there are risks present there, too. That's the story of these threads, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shining Enigma Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I watched the Confessor release interview on Youtube and it was crushingly disapointing. He was somewhat modest, not really pompous at all, and respectfully gracious to his readers. I can assure you, this is the man being true to form. We cannot claim he is anything otherwise...you know, I truly wish that I could make you see things the way I do; that is to say, convince you of Goodkind's goodness. In fact, that is precisely what a number of Terry fans would be capable of doing; sad to say, however, many don't appear to feel the same urge as I do: namely - with honest reasoning and careful persuasion - to convert those who despise Mr Goodkind's series the most. Obviously, it is a near impossible task for one man. I won't try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebenstone Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 AT the mall bookstore today, some teens were in the SFF section with a particularly thick book in their hands. One called over another friend to see "the best book ever written." It was Wizard's First Rule...I should've done something to stop them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wolf Maid Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 So should it be ovine fury, then? I will pretend that I know what ovine means and say, "yes". If goats go "meh," and sheep go "bah," then what sound do lemmings make? "Bartender! Another round!" I agree with Jaxom. Or it could be, "Guh." Welcome back Zap Rowsdower!! I have missed you greatly. I was extremely worried about you; I felt certain that Steven Seagal had kidnapped you and was forcing you to drink his lightning. Welsome back, Zap. Glad Steven has not done anything to you. Myshkin, thank you so much for putting that image into my head. AT the mall bookstore today, some teens were in the SFF section with a particularly thick book in their hands. One called over another friend to see "the best book ever written." It was Wizard's First Rule...I should've done something to stop them! Eben, its OK. Next time you see one, you can always do some stretching exercises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maltaran Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I will pretend that I know what ovine means and say, "yes". Ovine means sheep-like, just as caprine means goat-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry. Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Sadly, when I saw "caprine," I thought of the Spanish "cabra," which of course led to "chupacabra" Yes, I'm that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elrostar Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Regarding stopping teenagers from reading WFR, isn't that the Wizard's thirteenth rule or something? That friends don't let friends read Goodkind? Hmm, now that I think about it, that seems like a pretty self-less act. And where's the self-interest in that. Clearly I'm not choosing life in adopting that sort of stance. I'll just go back to my natural lemming habitat, I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
