    Are we both joking now or did you really think that I am that stupid, because if you do I think I should feel offended.

    Well, I guess it is kinda exclusive to German and Austrian schools to learn that much about German classical literature and Goethe in greater detail, so it was my mistake probably.

    No, of course I don't think you're that stupid, I just thought you typed the wrong syntax of the phrase. That's why I said:

    Isn't the Bride a bit of overkill for a mere misunderstanding?

    I'm reading an End of Eternity (Fate of Resonance) manga actually. I'm just reading through a few time to get the plot of these manga. Vashryon, Reanbell and Zephyr are just finished with the job they were handling, most of the pages were them prior to the job they were finishing right now. Now that they finish the job, they find out the clients wasn't cardinal theresa, but two mysterious girls.

    I've now read two first Chrestomancis, and also the 3rd has been translated into Finnish, but it's so new it's hard to get from library. Oh, I love Diana Wynne Jones' books so much!

    Almost finished the Nightside series. Man, this series feels rushed. He takes about a third of the time anyone else does to write a story with about three times as much awesome.

    Finally got to book 3 (A Storm of Swords) of A Song of Ice and Fire. Tyrion is the best. Seriously glad Peter Dinklage won that Emmy for the role.

    Fuck yeah esse. You reading the unabridged version?

  17. #117
    Not sure really. It's the version translated by Moss Roberts. I ordered it off of Amazon, but I don't remember what was written. It's 4 volumes about 500 pages each book. I think it's the abridged version, but I don't have any reference to compare to. It doesn't say anywhere inside the book.

    The Moss Roberts version I have has "Unabridged" on the front, and is 2 books about 1000 pages each, but the last 500 or so of book 2 is filled with notes and names and such.

    Yeah, that'll happen when you know a lot of the kanji, but few of the words.

    Unless you somehow are competent in three languages without my knowledge.
