    Worst book of all time

    Wee, on we go: Steinbeck: The only author whose writing has parts I hate so fervently and at the same time like so much. For example, The Grapes of Wrath was way too stretched out for my tastes so that it got monotonous and boring in the middle, but some of my favorite lines ever written by an...

    Phillip Pullman

    In America Subtle Knife and Amber Spyglass are still the titles of the second and third books; but the first book's title is Golden Compass. It's been a few years since I've read His Dark Materials, but I remember it to be a pretty good series. The anti-Christian bashings don't really bother...

    The magic hypocrisy

    I don't think Harry Potter itself is evil; some people just take it too far or get too obsessed with it. Since I'm an open-minded sort of person, I find people denouncing Harry Potter as demonic and the "influence of the devil" ridiculous. Personally, I think that more effort should be taken to...

    What age are you when it comes to playing game consoles?

    I'm surrounded by old people... Fifteen here; and I noticed no one picked the 10-15 range. I started when I was around six when my dad bought me a Sega Saturn (yes, eww and overpriced, but I didn't pick it), but where're all the early teen people? I swear, I've seen so many sixth through...

    Which game console would you buy?

    Okay, let's get several things straight: I worded "better support" badly - the whole phrase is "better DEVELOPER COMPANY support." This is why Sony has more third-party games - and I'm getting to that. Sony can compete with the Tom Clancy games and all the other stuff you mentioned, too...

    Which game console would you buy?

    There's a reason why the PlayStation 2 outsold both Xbox and GameCube combined several times over - it simply blew the competition out of the water in practically all the other things besides system specs. Face it - most people care more about the games on the system than how great the system...

    Shallow life

    My view on life is to find satisfaction and joy during your lifetime in your own unique way. In my case I've never feared death itself - I fear dying after wasting my life. Try making something of your life. Heh, I'm a teenager myself, so I still remember thinking about mortality a lot.
