To brag of indulgence of the thriller genre in literature (if I may be so bold to call it literature) is tantamount to bragging of indulgence of penny dreadfuls.

Originating from the United Kingdom I believe your position in this tirade would have been more successful had you brought up such writers as Joyce, Yeats, or Beckett, although at this point in time  I would be surprised if you happened to be acquainted with such literary geniuses.

Sorry nightfury what i meant was by reading the books of lee child you would understand why i am so anti cruise for this role. blaze223 Jul 04, 12:00

That's fine I can understand that. But the "burger menu" comment was unecessary. {nm} Nightfury82 Jul 04, 12:02

Does being English (British?) mean you also don't use punctuation and capitalization? {nm} Paul2k Jul 04, 11:22

Hmm...that came out sounding petty instead of silly...sorry for the crap joke. {nm} Paul2k Jul 04, 11:30

To be truthful, his grammar, insult, and the fact he's likening pulp fiction to literature, deserves all kinds of sarcastic commentary. DomoI Jul 04, 22:41
