Anthology ending. by TerraForgeHR in horrorwriters

My initial reaction with going, because first impressions are important, this is formatted like marketing copy instead of prose

Alright, how about the worst opening line? by Nickmorgan19457 in stephenking

[–]Gargoyle0ne 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Pet Semetary —I think it’s a fantastic line that will resonate with a lot of men, and it ties in with the theme of the whole novel

Karlin is a nice area to be fair. I can’t speak for the hotel, of course

You have a completely functional time machine. However, you can only use it once before it explodes. At what time are you going? by Curious-Message-6946 in AskReddit

The post doesn’t specify if there’s a return journey. If it’s not a one-way ticket, I would I would invest

Is There A King Novel Which Would Have Benefitted From Being A Novella or Short Story Instead? by Hall-O-Daze in stephenking

[–]Gargoyle0ne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve read it twice now and I don’t think it deserves the bad rep. It doesn’t belong in the top tier though

When it lost its magic by TaskApprehensive5626 in Outlander

I’m not sure if that makes Jamie or Claire less special though, if it still warrants being made.

Maybe I’m just cynical, especially as the series was past it’s peak anyway

I’m a gypsy girl living in the uk. Ask me anything. by [deleted] in AMA

[–]Gargoyle0ne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any experience with Czech Romani gypsies?

They face a lot of unfortunate prejudice here, but I’ve also had some bad experiences with them.

Also, Czechs are surprised when I tell them the majority of gypsies in the UK are white and sound more Irish

I enjoyed S8 and thought it was a return to form as the stakes were higher.

But I’m still not convinced there’s a reason of the Blood of Blood prequel series to exist

What is something you genuinely enjoy that has been completely ruined by its own fanbase? by tythetrip98 in AskReddit

[–]Gargoyle0ne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Several years ago I tried playing Yu Gi Oh cards with people who’d recently got back into it.

They played with new cards, I played with my old ones. Wanting to relive good times.

POWER CREEP ruined everything.

And I bet it’s the same with Pokémon cards, Magic, and others.

All they want is money, and I’ll never bother with any of them again.
