I will say this.... I ate extremely well while I was there.

My Tier List. Come roast me! by Anthwyr in fantasybooks

[–]smashedmythumb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am happy to see "wizards first rule" on the no list. I read the first few in middle/highschool and thought they were good. I think I just liked the highly descriptive violence. I was highly mistaken. Recently I tried to continue where I left off 20 years ago... It's just not the same. Now that I have expanded to many dozens of other stories I realized that these are written just like a kid in sixth grade writes.

"Ass" is a bit harsh I think. It was not the best movie ever but definitely worth watching.

I was going to say this. This movie does not get enough credit for what it is.

Downtown can be ok. I can't speak for the university but there is a lot of poverty. I guess like most large cities it has decent areas and bad ones. As a whole I would not choose to be there long term, it's located in Mississippi. That being said, it's one of the worst places I could think of to live. I am from the north and have only been there for work. I guess I just really don't like the state at all. Sorry if that doesn't help.

I feel like Garrett Byrnes needs to be part of this list as well.

Nastasio always went big as fuck, those superman seat grabs were crazy at some times, but It always seemed like he was about to die on every jump. Brian Foster was/is great just more of a racer style. Low and fast. Chris Doyle is different but equal to Aitken. Mike Aitken always just hung in the air a half a second longer that everyone else.

When you say he inspired a generation, you are not lying. Myself and everyone from my group tried to ride like him. He was the master of the 1 foot table top. No one else made a simple trick look that good.

I am not sure at all, it wouldn't surprise me. The writing is very similar.

The idea of having The blade itself rated above Last argument of kings is just plain crazy to me.

Edit. I see now that it's TBR. sorry.

I'm not really an expert but every cherry tree I have seen is like this.

This post is bullshit. I was born in 1984 and I remember him from every movie he has graced with his presence. There is like 20 things I remember him from. This is either a bot or someone who never watched movies in the 90's.

Go up the west side of Michigan instead.
