What a crock. Everyone knows that Order of the Phoenix is the best Harry Potter book, I've lost all my faith in self selected public opinion polls now.Those are some awesome lists. The one that lists Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as the #5 best novel is MONEY. There's nothing like a phone vote to determine the world's greatest achievements.' said:
Damn it, I wish you'd been in this draft.
#### yeah!
rodg, wait...
Meh, you both mentioned it, you're married, I made the connection. The Western Cannon is a widely read (and owned) book. Coincidences happen.
I'm not. Come now Krista, you're well aware of my internet superpowers. I'll admit I barely understand them myself, yet I possess the incredible ability to provoke total meltdowns of vitriolic hate when I don't even mean to. Some say it's my good looks. Others say it's my innate sense of timing. Personally, I think it's my people skills. I'm so god damm suave (feel free to hear the last three words in the voice of Frank Booth) that the wannabes meltdown when I call them on their crap. Rejected, they explode into ranting. It's my lot in life. I'm a victim of my own complex superiority (feel free to invert the last two words).
I'm not sure, but I've managed to steal the Official FFA Draft Villain title from Larry_Boy and Misfitblondes. By my count, I've managed to provoke 2 total meltdowns, 1 i-suicide threat, 1 attempted slapfight, drew out an alias pile-on, was invited onto 2 teams, tentatively made both and worked my way off each. One former partner hates me, the other probably doesn't care. And I did it all without getting a single time-out.Could I get the updated list of who loves and hates each other here? My notebook is down. All it says is El Floppo = enemy.
Ah crap, I was wrong. We do own it. I knew we'd both read it but forgot it was on the shelves.Meh, you both mentioned it, you're married, I made the connection.

Do you have a newsletter on internet superpowers to which I could subscribe?

:butt pat:quick look around the room to make sure MB wasn't watching.....
Krista, I had no intention of rubbing you the wrong way (bow chika wow wow) but honestly, though I hate to admit it, the remark you made really got me. It's as if you felt that by one simple ranking the rest of my efforts weren't even worth a look. I put hours into that garbage, and for you to simply write me off like that surprised me especially since I feel you are a good person and I respect your opinions. No hard feelings from me.As far as I know, we don't own the Bloom book. There are a lot of books around here, though; maybe I've missed it.Bit surprised by the Postradamus meltdown.You have to be Krista's hubby right? That Bloom book must be bedside material.Oliver Humanzee said:Just messing around. I have a copy of Bloom's pronouncements on my shelf too. Every once in awhile I amuse myself with its tidy lists. He has several Delillo novels there and would clearly suck Pynchon's knob if Tommy ever showed up at NYU. So I'm more with Bloom than against him.
But she was right. That's the thing, sparky.Krista, I had no intention of rubbing you the wrong way (bow chika wow wow) but honestly, though I hate to admit it, the remark you made really got me.

What's your opinion of central air and heating?

Henry Rollins is a snob in his own way.
yes, probably
To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my favorite books.
I want to punch these people in the throat. Morons, all of them.

I was counting on this from you.

You win some, you lose some.
