At any rate, David might have done a better job training Solomon than he did (at least as far as we can tell).

@Mark-Kamibaya Actually I take that back. I was talking about it with @Kate-Flournoy, and later I went and looked specifically for stuff in the Bible from David to Solomon. Looking specifically at 1 Kings 2:1-4 and 1 Chronicles 28:9 ,…[Read more]

@Daeus I’d be the last person to judge you.

@Daeus yes, I know. Eldest was by far the toughest to get through. Thematically wishy-washy and not accomplishing much of anything. It’s been a while since I read Brisingr, but I do seem to remember it being a lot more interesting and a lot less eye-roll-worthy when it came to the worldview, probably because it didn’t say much of anything about it…[Read more]

@ethryndal Oh! Big Hero 6. Baymax said that about ten times in a row to Hiro.

@Mark-Kamibaya That verse— “Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.” —is one I hold to say he was bad. It says he went not fully, because he was Godly, in his earlier life, as you’re saying. But toward the end, he turned away. That doesn’t to me say he still partly had a heart for…[Read more]

@Daeus 😀

@Mark-Kamibaya ‘kay, Harold Abrahams.

@Sarah-H Which version was it?

@kate-flournoy It’s the Princess Bride when Wesley is trying to comfort Buttercup about the Fire Swamp, right?
@sarah-h I think his name is Vezzini. And Happy Thanksgiving!

@Daeus What’s his name? I might want to look him (the historical one) up. Do you think I shouldn’t if I’m going to watch the movie—spoilers?

@Anne-of-Lothlorien it’s from a very famous comedic fantasy that practically everyone has watched.

‘It’s not a choice. Not for me.’

@warrioroftherealm Ah, you shouldn’t ask me that question. Any time I’m in my room, or I have my computer out, I’m listening to music.
@anne-of-lothlorien I don’t think that the Warrior’s new… He’s been here for longer than I have.
Here’s me keeping it as simple as possible–
My favorite genres are Worship and Epic. So sorry, Warrior, but I’m…[Read more]

@kate-flournoy I know that you’re not exaggerating. I have just as many ideas or more.
@anne-of-lothlorien I would jump the fence, but hope NOT to get a broken arm. I’d do it for the exhileration. (Ah, what am I saying. I’m a dragon, I’ll just fly over the fence.)
I have based a character off of someone before… but that’s another long story.…[Read more]

@mark-kamibaya No, I don’t like that theme of the movie. I’m talking about the powerful turn-around of characters. It has a good theme in that, but yeah, otherwise it is like Frozen. (And I can’t stand Frozen) 🙁 *melts the movie*

@The-Bean according to my observations, yes. But I don’t think it necessarily follows that one must be an introvert to be a writer. Introverts simply come to that more naturally. It’s a ‘safer’ way for them to make their voice heard.

@Anne-of-Lothlorien no, I don’t think I’ve ever based a character off a family member or someone I know. Just…[Read more]

Heyyyy, you beat me to it @Hope.
But we knows the answer to that one too. *nods sagely* Edmund to King Miraz.

‘Nonsense. You’re only saying that because no one ever has.’

Love your new profile picture, @anne-of-lothlorien

Also, the quote is from The Scarlet Pimpernel to chauvelin.

So do I get to go now, or do we wait for you to confirm we are correct? Anyways, here’s my next one.

“So you’re bravely refusing to fight a swordsman half your age?”

Ha! Little siblings can be so creepy. 😀

@WarrioroftheRealm hm… my favorite genre of music is probably traditional Celtic/Scottish/Nordic, though it’s really hard to find genuinely beautiful arrangements of traditional tunes.
And… I don’t have a favorite band. I just dig through stuff and find things I like the sound of. 😛
