>pick one.
You have no idea what it was about, do you?
The androids were human. The point was that their lives were worth nothing less than ours, because we are equally human.

It sounds crazy, but then, there are also those who believe that the earth is flat. In the first world. Who went to high school. Ffs.

No, they genuinely like J.K. Rowling and dislike Meyer. Of course, Rowling is infinitely more skilled than Meyer, but that alone is not saying much. One writes children's books, the other is a shaven monkey with a typewriter.

I've never heard any of their songs, and I had no idea who she was until I googled it five minutes ago. I only ever memorised their name because it rhymes.

There is no fucking way she said that! I demand sauce!

Am I the only one who disliked Mallow all the way to the end? He just seemed like a money-hungry egotist selling out the Foundation...

It's YAF: it doesn't have to make sense. It's like fantasy.

This is semi of-topic, but check it out:
How about a book like YAF, but absurd and slightly/severely depressing? Like half way through the book the main starts showing less than ideal identity traits, eventually shifting the books focus to another character who's been along from the beginning. The original main is now an antagonist, and we both identify with her and hate her, because we read her thoughts for a hundred pages, but she's also a jerk? I just really like the idea of the "plain-Jane ugly duckling" becoming vicious and cruel, betraying those who love her, but still retaining her emotional depth and pain. Just to create an antagonist who isn't in any way cheesy or silly?

>He meets other girl
>Thinks he's in love
>Girl#1 realises she loves him
>Live together happily forever after
Did you forget the formula? You know you only have to google, right?

Do you ever feel depressed after realising that you are a pretentious douche.

Clearly, you have not read Eragon. I remembered liking it as a kid the other day, so I picked up Brisingr and just kinda flipped through it. Eragon: not even once.

Sorry!

Capitalism is not "letting people run their own lives". It is letting people rule the lives of others, based on nothing but the merits of luck, work/business/swindling skills and talent. The other system your picture displays is one wherein all people have equal opportunity to elect others to make decisions on their behalf.
I'm not advocating a planned economy, I'm just pointing out the fact that a laissez faire free market economy invariably leads to a society ruled by an oppressive regime of elite businessmen. A democracy is a more or less unrelated system which tends to strengthen itself and ensuring relative freedom for the majority of its citizens.

No.

>Jimmy is right; there is too much debris to clear a faster path.
is complete gibberish. None of it makes any sense whatsoever.
This could be 2deep4me symbolism, but even then it is poorly written.

Something like 700 km/h, I think.
Km=1,000m=10,000dm=100,000cm=1,000,000mm
1mile=1.6Km.
3'4"=1m
1"=2.5cm

>30,000 km/hr
You don't know what a kilometre is, do you? Try cm/h.
