    Favourite High Fantasy series?

    Nice, I can see a few series I'll have to start based on the recommendations here, however I must say I did read book one of the Kingkiller series, The Name of the Wind, and I personally felt the main character was too much of a Mary Sue with the cliche sob-story of how he was such a poorly...

    Examples of quality writing?

    Sex grooming cases spark racial tensions

    Lol seriously? As in you don't personally or you don't know of? If the latter, then you must be living under a mountain, if you are going to deny that men of all ethnicities and religions, including white and atheiests, have and do pimp out girls of any age in all countries all over the world...

    If you have nothing nice to say...

    Hi, my fault for being vague, but no it has nothing to do with anyone being gay, that's not something I would have any issue with. My default stance is currently silence, and it causes distance, awkward silent interactions where they are trying to just do normal everyday things with me but I...

    If you have nothing nice to say...

    For the whole avoiding part, what if they want your company and you are already hurting them by avoiding them? The saying nothing and being completely silence is also damaging in a way. What if the aspect you want to criticize is everything, from their personality and attitude to the way they...

    If you have nothing nice to say...

    Would you say it or keep quiet to avoid hurting people's feelings? What if the people in question is family, and speaking your mind would cause alienation, though keeping quiet also causes alienation due to a lack of communication? What if it's about the way they live their life but it's nothing...

    Victim of perceived thug does end up in jail

    Is this sarcasm? The internets is impossible to tell. If not, what happened to leaning towards Zimmerman's side of the story?

    Rogue soldier has mental breakdown, kills civilians in Afghanistan

    Is it premature to call Anders Behring Breivik a terrorist and state an opinion over whether he deserves the death penalty since we don't know much about his mental status seeing and for all intents and purposes he may have seen himself as fighting monsters? I find it laughable that anyone can...

    Customer Service

    No sorry necessary, the brief was for your sake not mine, I'm more than happy for the details! The weird and interesting recognition thing sounds fun, and thanks for the ideas about culture, definitely something to think about. I work for a large cell phone company call center and so the...

    Kony 2012

    This is not raising awareness of anything, just like those Dollar a Day for a child in Africa ads. It's just a way to get those donations rolling in, just like those Dollar a Day for a child in Africa ads. So now we know there are starving kids in Africa or a particular pyscho killer in Africa...

    Kony 2012

    Very interesting that so many people buy into the fad and throw their money away feeling like they're 'doing something' and feeling somehow more educated on some important matter when as a matter of fact they're not doing anything or educating themselves about anything either. The founders of...
