0:23 - there's a difference between "asterisk" and "asterix". One is a French cartoon character, the other is a punctuation mark and they are pronounced differently. And 0:16 - Tropic of "Cancer" ?
The Two Towers ended in a cliffhanger. "Frodo was alive, and had been taken by the enemy!" People eagerly anticipated Return of the King, and were dismayed when it took Tolkien extra time to finish it. He kept quibbling with the appendices. Eventually Tolkien's publishers put their foot down and gave him an ultimatum to call it finished. RotK was published only a year after TTT. If only they knew how bad it could actually get.
I was just talking to my mom about this, I went over to her house. She is a huge fan of Stephen King, has every book ever, I didn't know she actually meant every single one, including Rage. She just up and told me it, the four-piece Bachman collection. I'm currently reading it.
I have seen people tortured in the most horrific ways. Seen their skin being peeled off their faces, their teeth pulled with pliers and their arms and legs cut off while they were verymuch alive. Mostly for reasons that seem utterly off balance with respect to the absurd amount of violence being inflicted on their mind and bodies. No book can ever contain the horrors I have actually seen happen.
Shame that Stephen King turned out to be a low-rent reactionary know-nothing idiot. I liked the world far better before social media let us see what people thought.
How the fuck do you not have more subscribers? This is genuinely one of the best channels I’ve watched in a while. I really hope you can find a following and continue making these videos because I love them.
“He watched the Shining that’s why he’s violent” “he plays those call of duty games that’s why he did it” “he read 50 shades of gray that’s why he’s a rapist”
In my opinion it’s hard to say whether or not Rage deserved to be taken off of shelves. Yes, it caused shootings (as did many other books), but it also helped people come to terms with certain things.
Parts unknown was a constant companion to me in some dark times. It's hard to believe it's been almost six years, it feels like a lot less. Another round of cobra hearts for the whole algorhythm. Keep up the good work, this is a hidden gem of a channel.
When my band Bomb (fave of Kurt's) played Lawrence KS at "The Outhouse" all ages club (one-story windowless concrete bunker in the middle of a corn field) in early 90s, the promoter gave us a tour around town the next day. It included ".....and that's the pharmacy where William S. Burroughs gets his methadone."
Did kurt ever mention your band as one hes a fan of? Im just curious why you took it upon yourself to specifically mention that, all that said, id wanna see the pharmacy too, its a valid stop
I Respect Hunter, But You NEVER call another Man a Punk, Unless your ready to Fight. End of Story. I just Wished he gave Sonny, Terry, George & Skip their 2 cases of Beer, Spending a year with a Group of People day in day out , Bikers or Not, He should have Been a Man and Went back and Apologized for Not minding his Business, He Was NOT a Member of the HELLS ANGELS. He was an Outsider and should have showed class to the Club. #syl🔴⚪world 🇺🇲🤝🏻☘️
I’ve just finished The Road to Los Angeles. Been saving the last pages for a proper time that ended up being tonight. Tomorrow I will dive into Dreams of Bunker Hill, passing from the first novel to the last one (and final book of the Bandini quartet). It’s been a while since I had this type of gripping fascination with an author to the point of reading everything that I can find. That first paragraph of Ask the Dust is something that will stay with me forever. Guess that’s some sort of love
