Dr. Bath's Random Banter, dripping with daring deeds of dastardly deipnosophists #99

[Oregano]

Does the line have more effect if you know the context of it, because it just sounds weird to me.

How many Discworld books are they by the way, I searched it and got a massive list. It was overwhelming.

@V: of course it's rare, proper British Gents don't cry unless there's a good speech, extra points if it's the Queen.

[Lyesmith]

It is a beautiful speech. I've more or less memorised it, too. And i think the first time i read it, it did move me to tears (which is an oddly rare thing for me.)

[Archonic Energy]

See! Every PRatchett fan I know seems to know that line and loves that book (unless they havent' read it, Bath). I wonder why it's that line that sticks so much. And then when he asks for a little time.
Catches in your throat, heck, I nearly always cry from that section onwards.

a classic quote but i prefer:

A CROWN? His voice shook with rage. I NEVER WORE A CROWN!

it reaally shows the difference between the Deaths

[Dallas-Dakota]

Phew. Tired.
Just came back from the end of school party.

I'm tired, or kinda.
I somehow apparently didn't make a fool out of myself!

I had a lot of fun tonight with my group of friends. And I met a girl tonight(who also belongs to that group)


No. Not like that.

Anyway it was lots of fun, I discovered I had more in common with my friends then I thought. (We discussed how awesome Ian Mckellan is!)
So even though the rubbish was music, I didn't like the food or drinks and the icecream was seriously meh. I had a lot of fun with my friends group who I will probably never see again. Well I had lots of fun, didn't make a fool out of myself and came home with several msn adresses.

And I think I'm going to bed now.

[Oregano]

That's great DD, not that you had fun, but that your friends accept how awesome Ian Mckellen actually is.

I had fun at my prom, even though it just had chav music.

Did you dance?

[Dr. Bath]

I have read it. Just a while ago. I borrowed it off'f a friend, whom I sadly no longer am in contact with.

There are....masses. 36 to be precise. And a few short stories. And the non-discworld novels. All are brilliant.

[Dallas-Dakota]

Well, it wasn't prom actually, I'm switching schools. O.o(again. 0.0)

Not really. What they called dancing(which my group DIDN'T particpate in) is what I personally called : Dancing zombie-style but not awesome.
Seriously, even to Celtic music when you dance to it, there's more structure and activity.

While at the back of the room.
I enjoyed feeling the music more then listening to it
It literally vibrated through the floor and such.

That just conjured up images in my head of everyone spontaneously doing the Thriller dance.

NO CROWN, THERE IS ONLY THE HARVEST. That book has so many great lines. And one of the wierdest plots I've read/ City eggs anyone?

[Dr. Bath]

City....eggs?

On the topic of dancing. I did that today. Wearing a pink sequined jacket. Jazz hands were involved. Also spinning. Last week there was spontanious Micheal Jackson dancing. I think my friends and I may scare people...

[Phase]

I wish that would happen. It would be awesome.

[Lyesmith]

I do spontaneous dance! But am too shy to ever show anyone.

[Oregano]

I danced at the back of my history class where no one could see me to INXS during quizzes and I still won, well me and my mate.

We got accused of cheating all the time as well, because people thought they were better than us because we don't obsess over things like revision.

[Griever]

If you dance alone in a forest, is it still spontaneous?

[Dallas-Dakota]

If you dance alone in a forest, is it still spontaneous?

Yes, because squirrels WILL be watching......................................

[Dr. Bath]

But then you're not alone. Dun Dun DUUUUUN! The mystery deepens, the plot thickens and the conumdrum has only just begun.drum

What is INXS?

[Oregano]

INXS is an australian band. They're fantastic, especially the song Don't Change.

Don't listen to any of their stuff with the new guy, it's rubbish. I think you can get Listen Like Thieves(on of their best albums) for £2.99 at sainsbury's.


EDIT: Here's don't change.

[Thufir]

That to me is more a rock concert thing. It's not loud enough unless you can feel the vibrations from the bass.
Not something I actually go for very often though. I usually prefer quieter, more civilised events.

[Raiser Blade]

I has lots of iilegal fireworks. I iz happy.

[Oregano]

[Raiser Blade]

Bonecrusher hates the Fourth of July.

No, wait, that's me. I hate the Fourth of July.

[Player_Zero]

Why's that?

..England has no 4^th of July, we have Guy Fawkes Night/Bonfire Night instead.

...Did you know that the word 'guy' is in reference to Guy Fawkes? Well now you do.

[mercurymaline]

So what comes between the third and the fifth over there?
Sorry, bad joke.

I hate fireworks. *pop* *bang*

*twitchtwitch* Charlie's in the trees! *cowers*
