Nope.  Our school readings consist mainly of American, English, and Russian literature.  

I imagine he's pretty good? He won the Nobel Prize, after all.

 He's a very good author and I seriously recommend his novels. I've read about 7-8 of them and they have all been fantastic.

How far do you plan on reading in ASOIAF?

Sorry, I just never felt the need to read them since the movies are supposed to be very faithful.  

Don't know about ASOIAF yet. I'll read until the end of the third book then I'll decide.

The movies enrich your eyes and ears, but the books will enrich your mind.  

I'm set to finish FFC in the next few days and I'll probably read the fifth one over Christmas since the paperback comes out in October and I like to have all of the books of a same series be the same height on a bookshelf.

I'm not sure whether I should take you seriously right now.

It's interesting that you bring that up because I bought the first two from Holland and they look like this:



But then when I went to England I didn't find those versions, which greatly annoyed me. But as if that wasn't bad enough, they've actually split the third and the fifth books into two parts. Why the fuck would they do that?

I am not the demented freak you all think I am.

Order the US version, my friend. That looks exactly like my copy of GOT.

I can only imagine that it's a moneymaking scheme. My books look on the outside like 400-500 page books because the pages are so thin and its bounded so economically. The UK just let it all hang out, so to speak, and the books looked floppy and poor quality when I saw them in Waterstones.  

My GOT book is 800 pages. I just brought the second and it is around the same.

I made a Super League in the BPL
Juventus are top of the table with 19 points after 7 games
Porto are last place with 3 points after 7 games
Liverpool are 18th place with 4 points after 7 games
YORK CITY are 19th place with 4 points after 7 games
Newcastle are 6th place with 13 points after 7 games

Newcastle are ahead of Man City, Chelsea, Man U, Arsenal (me), Dortmund, Benfica, Spurs, Inter, Valencia, Milan, Monaco, Liverpool, York City, and Porto in that order

Wait. Theo was/is BalotelliWinks? 

Jesus..

Those were good days.

I can confirm that I was infact BalotelliWinks back in the day, me, LiamB and Zzonked made quite a team.

What did you guys troll about

About football.

Ebay seller fees can't be right, just paid 40 pounds out two or so weeks ago and it's up to 60 again. Haven't sold anything like that amount. 

That AGraham guy on EA is a moron.

 My friend, do your research in future then

Too big to publish as one book in paperback I think.

Has anyone read The Way of Kings? Brandon Sanderson is quickly becoming my new favourite author.

 He's obviously a follower of the Alan Hansen school of thought when it comes to football. 

All you need is strength, grit, and determination.

  I posted that comment over here.

1. How on earth does Higuain offer more "grit" than Suarez?
2. Suarez > Higuain
3. Arsenal aren't overloaded with creativity.

I'm guessing he also strongly hoped that Wanyama would come in alongside Arteta?

This is the reason why I hate neo-nazi fascist skinheads.

Alaba, learn to post without fucking up the forum. Indian mongoloid.

Why is the guy posting huge pictures  

It's my 10000x10000 sized avatar. Do you have a problem?

Yeah I do.

Yeezus Christ, this guy is savage.

Quickly scrolled through that and I still feel stunned.

Yeezus Christ, 3:01 is just .... Yeezus Christ.
