You're right. In the context of this thread, I'm basically acting like a raving lunatic. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 11/09/2012 02:48:19 PM
Because you're not actually being guilty of any of what I'm complaining about here.

I'm just bitter about old arguments that I might not even be remembering correctly. Nevermind.

I'm sorry I called you a jerk, Larry, I didn't really mean it!

This may be one of the most dire reviews you shall ever read Larry - 09/09/2012 09:12:25 PM 2069 Views
Certainly one of the most original, you get points for that. Legolas - 09/09/2012 10:39:00 PM 1328 Views
Well... Larry - 09/09/2012 10:57:25 PM 1315 Views
A review of a D&D bestiary could be more dire. Stephen - 09/09/2012 11:29:17 PM 1178 Views
Perhaps Larry - 09/09/2012 11:50:20 PM 1275 Views
Hey now. Owlbears are awesome. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:35:28 AM 1488 Views
That page is painful to behold Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:09:29 AM 1313 Views
They are popular as they are fun, easy reading books Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:11:24 AM 1254 Views
"Popular", "Fun," and "Easy" doesn't have to be equated with poorly-written Larry - 10/09/2012 12:16:27 AM 1400 Views
Poorly written by what standard? Wibble - 10/09/2012 12:29:17 AM 1343 Views
By the standards of what I enjoyed as a nine year-old? Larry - 10/09/2012 01:04:12 AM 1290 Views
So like I said, by the standards of Elitist Literary Snobs Wibble - 11/09/2012 12:03:08 AM 1393 Views
Nice attempt at sophistry, but alas, it fails Larry - 11/09/2012 12:38:24 AM 1284 Views
Was that meant to make any sense? Wibble - 11/09/2012 01:43:13 AM 1442 Views
Re: Was that meant to make any sense? Larry - 11/09/2012 01:54:23 AM 1297 Views
I'm with Wibble on this (big surprise) HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 03:07:53 PM 1409 Views
Heh. James - 12/09/2012 03:43:52 PM 1431 Views
Pretty much so Larry - 12/09/2012 04:19:35 PM 1419 Views
When did you put up that header? Stephen - 12/09/2012 04:35:20 PM 1307 Views
I didn't put it up Larry - 12/09/2012 04:51:32 PM 1208 Views
I shall tread lightly so. Stephen - 12/09/2012 06:15:51 PM 1338 Views
Larry - 12/09/2012 07:25:29 PM 1201 Views
+6 health? What game are you playing? Tom - 12/09/2012 07:52:52 PM 1245 Views
The Game of Life? Larry - 12/09/2012 08:23:53 PM 1320 Views
Re: Pretty much so HyogaRott - 12/09/2012 08:50:57 PM 1330 Views
You apparently do not read my blog/reviews much Larry - 12/09/2012 09:07:18 PM 1345 Views
Actually, I read them almost never HyogaRott - 13/09/2012 03:07:48 PM 1387 Views
I think my IQ dropped a little bit when I parsed what you said Larry - 13/09/2012 04:16:21 PM 1338 Views
Yep, your usual rebuttal... *NM* HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 02:14:56 PM 667 Views
No, not really Larry - 17/09/2012 06:25:15 PM 1182 Views
Yes, Yes, wrap yourself in arrogance and declare yourself correct until your opposite gets bored... HyogaRott - 17/09/2012 11:12:17 PM 1469 Views
Nah, I just wipe my ass with arrogance Larry - 18/09/2012 12:23:44 AM 1715 Views
The last word with me is rather difficult to obtain HyogaRott - 18/09/2012 02:48:03 PM 1240 Views
Don't try to argue with them. They've made their judgments. They are better than you. lord-of-shadow - 10/09/2012 09:36:17 PM 1309 Views
Defensive much? *NM* Larry - 10/09/2012 10:31:17 PM 711 Views
Perhaps. It's annoying, because I tend to agree with you guys - you and Tom and Stephen. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:32:28 AM 1298 Views
The odd thing that there wasn't any belittling on my part -see other response. *NM* Larry - 11/09/2012 03:17:36 AM 662 Views
For the record, I wasn't trying to be condescending in my response. Tom - 11/09/2012 05:52:29 PM 1302 Views
He never said you couldn't enjoy it. Stephen - 10/09/2012 11:10:11 PM 1442 Views
Indeed Larry - 10/09/2012 11:17:20 PM 1300 Views
But they aren't. Wibble - 10/09/2012 11:48:14 PM 1336 Views
Prove it. *NM* Stephen - 11/09/2012 03:12:17 AM 643 Views
He also went on to compare liking the books to having the standards of a nine-year-old. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:34:18 AM 1289 Views
You didn't read what I said very well then Larry - 11/09/2012 03:16:21 AM 1305 Views
You're right. In the context of this thread, I'm basically acting like a raving lunatic. lord-of-shadow - 11/09/2012 02:48:19 PM 1311 Views
It's not like any of us have ever been innocent 100% of the time Larry - 11/09/2012 03:49:22 PM 1250 Views
I believe that they were not meant for adults. Tom - 10/09/2012 12:30:05 AM 1301 Views
Very few of my friends were reading the books; some played the game, though Larry - 10/09/2012 01:06:07 AM 1268 Views
Basically, both get dubious kudos for trying something new by the dire standards of the day. Werthead - 10/09/2012 11:38:22 PM 1308 Views
Interesting point Larry - 11/09/2012 12:41:01 AM 1270 Views
Are you aware of the game's alignment rules? Some of the novels struggle with this. Werthead - 12/09/2012 10:58:37 PM 1286 Views
Not aware of it at all until now Larry - 12/09/2012 11:18:57 PM 1284 Views
How is that possible? Tom - 12/09/2012 11:28:33 PM 1229 Views
My dad was (and is) influenced by Evangelicals Larry - 13/09/2012 12:17:36 AM 1191 Views
Wait, so you didn't read the Chronicles first? Tom - 13/09/2012 02:12:13 PM 1186 Views
No Larry - 13/09/2012 02:18:03 PM 1256 Views
Well, it's sort of like starting Jordan at Lord of Chaos Tom - 13/09/2012 05:18:23 PM 1261 Views
Oddly enough, I started WoT at CoS in November 1997 Larry - 13/09/2012 05:56:04 PM 1208 Views
Chronicles is considerably weaker Werthead - 13/09/2012 11:14:38 PM 1287 Views
Needless to say, once I finish reading the Icewind Dale trilogy, I'm done with D&D Larry - 14/09/2012 12:38:47 AM 1399 Views
12 modules, not 15 Tom - 14/09/2012 02:55:39 PM 1419 Views
These threads are so much better than the rape threads! *NM* Dan - 12/09/2012 04:03:01 AM 740 Views
You're just waiting to see if I'll use hexameter in the next one *NM* Larry - 12/09/2012 04:32:31 AM 583 Views
When do we get to see some alexandrines? *NM* Stephen - 12/09/2012 12:41:29 PM 668 Views
Or quatrains? Larry - 12/09/2012 03:25:13 PM 1180 Views
And having now finished Dragonlance: Legends, its very own sonnet Larry - 13/09/2012 12:31:51 PM 1298 Views
At least you didn't read the Baldur's Gate novelizations beetnemesis - 14/09/2012 04:29:17 AM 1206 Views
Sssssh! Larry - 14/09/2012 05:10:19 AM 1270 Views
People become lesbians for no reason! beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:34:20 PM 1139 Views
I think my IQ dropped further upon learning of this Larry - 17/09/2012 06:29:29 PM 1180 Views
Baldurs Gate wooooo! Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:13:34 PM 1330 Views
Eh, Star Wars Expanded Universe I could see reading. Some of them are supposed to be good beetnemesis - 17/09/2012 04:37:05 PM 1634 Views
Is the review dire because of the subject or the sonnet form? Foxhead - 14/09/2012 04:24:37 PM 1244 Views
Both Larry - 14/09/2012 04:36:59 PM 1225 Views
it would be unusual for someone to just randomly pick books like that up Foxhead - 14/09/2012 05:05:37 PM 1488 Views
Interesting scenario Larry - 14/09/2012 10:16:11 PM 1246 Views
Re: Interesting scenario Foxhead - 15/09/2012 09:55:59 AM 1438 Views
