LOL, I don't think anyone has made that joke. But it sounds like you've only read the Cliff's Notes for the thread if you don't know that for sure!

Home Recording For Musicians For Dummies

does that imply that musicians are dummies?

I'm reading "Der Dativ ist dem Genitiv sein Tod", a funny book about the demise of the german language in terms of grammar, grammatical trends and influence of the english language...
 
Best example: Many germans think english terms sound "cooler", particulary in sales promotion, so this one is a very grotesque example of such promotion: Instead of using the term rucksack (which ALREADY is a "cool" english term btw) you were able to buy "body bags" in german stores  How grotesque is that?

So, which Fast Show character would you be, Reed?

 

...it's got to be Colin Hunt - the Office Joker!

Colin Hunt

Colin considers himself a wit and an entertainer, but in truth the only person who enjoys his endless, stream-of-consciousness inanity is his rather limp colleague, Doreen.

But I am witty, you twat!

I finished A Clockwork Orange and Brave New World not too long ago, and they were inspiring.

Hmmm.
I'm reading a few books by Chuck Palahniuk - Lullaby and Invisible Monster, having finished Fight Club a few weeks ago. I love Chuck.
And then there's Les Fourmis (The Ants) by Bernard Werber, but I'm not sure which language it was written in, originally, since mine is in french.

You guys mention the titles but never the content, what's an uneducated gal like me to do if I want to read up on things and you can't even tell me what they're ABOUT?

Spot the difference.

I just knew you'd have to bring the result up, I'm only surprised it took you so long.

FERNANDO MORIENTES has scored on every debut he has made - but he believes a goal against Manchester United today would eclipse all those special moments.

Morientes

Lately I've been reading some Will Self, Hunter S. Thompson and Kurt Vonnegut.



Vonnegut
is one of my all time favourites.
