Please say that Cat Stevens did it. That would be hilarious.

[LTS TRN 2]

Well he's gone on record endorsing it a long time ago. But this dirt bag is a 24 year-old from New Jersey (of course). Rushdie is pretty fucked up--will lose an eye and is hanging on with a ventilator. The attack apparently went on for twenty seconds before people intervened.

[Dr_Phibes]

Thought he sat on his pen, not that he knew how to use it for anything else. Always filed Rushdie alongside Orwell. Authors of shitty books that were lionised to serve the political agenda of the day.

I will bow to Mecca in honour of this event. Praise be to Allah.

[Screw_Michigan]

I really don't know much about him. Other than he made an appearance on Curb Your Enthusiasm and got perforated today.

Yes Orwell wrote shitty books, cause big institutions are your friends and to say otherwise is a political agenda of the day. That is both ass backwards and infantile at the same time.

What you've posted makes no sense. I don't understand your point. Please re-post in a clear fashion.

[Kierland]

So you can’t read but feel comfortable calling Orwell a shitty writer. How am I not surprised?

You two frauds are the same...you're talking to yourself--pretending to quarrel...you're really a queer, a twisted chick in a weak male body..

This is the troll game.. :!: :!:

Ugghh.. :?


Well you have no business commenting on actual men like Rushdie...

Gonna start calling you Ricky Shiffer-Brains.

...you're talking to yourself…

Oh, the irony.

Mental masturbation, he can't do it anywhere else so T1B becomes his tube sock.

[LTS TRN 2]

Here's a sample from The Satanic Verses. The book starts with two men falling from an airliner which has somehow blown up in mid air..

When Mr. Saladin Chamcha fell out of the clouds over the English Channel
he felt his heart being gripped by a force so implacable that he
understood it was impossible for him to die. Afterwards, when his feet
were once more firmly planted on the ground, he would begin to doubt
this, to ascribe the implausibilities of his transit to the scrambling of his
perceptions by the blast, and to attribute his survival, his and Gibreel's,
to blind, dumb luck. But at the time he had no doubt; what had taken
him over was the will to live, unadulterated, irresistible, pure, and the
first thing it did was to inform him that it wanted nothing to do with his
pathetic personality, that half-reconstructed affair of mimicry and voices,
it intended to bypass all that, and he found himself surrendering to it,
yes, go on, as if he were a bystander in his own mind, in his own body,
because it began in the very centre of his body and spread outwards,
turning his blood to iron, changing his flesh to steel, except that it also
felt like a fist that enveloped him from outside, holding him in a way that
was both unbearably tight and intolerably gentle; until finally it had
conquered him totally and could work his mouth, his fingers, whatever it
chose, and once it was sure of its dominion it spread outward from his
body and grabbed Gibreel Farishta by the balls.


As you can see, it has nothing whatever in common with Orwell in style or purpose. More like Pynchon, I'd say.

[Dr_Phibes]

Fuc*ing shite.

The unnecessary use of pronouns, adverbs and run-on sentences is always a healthy substitute for content. Get well soon, Salmon.

[LTS TRN 2]

You're fake as fuck, "Dr" There's only two adverbs in the paragraph, and what, you're scared of pronouns? You too? You're now non-binary? :o

[Mikey]

You're fake as fuck, "Dr" There's only two adverbs in the paragraph, and what, you're scared of pronouns? You too? You're now non-binary? :o

I count at least three adverbs.

But you’re the grammar expert.

[Dr_Phibes]

Sorry, got lost in the word salad. It's the literary equivalent of this:



Small wonder you like it so much. Gimmickry and gadgetry for the bourgeois liberal to shelf next to his Richard Dawkins collection. 'Oooo religion is just so icky'!
Do yourself a favour and hit the library, grab yourself some Thomas Hardy and make a week of it.

[LTS TRN 2]

Hardy hardly makes the cut as worthwhile reading--unless you're partial to outrageously convenient coincidences occurring at every turn in his novels. His poetry is nice. As for Rushdie, it's not my favorite style--it reminds me of the South American writers like Cortazar with the all-but "magic realism" and so forth. But if it sticks a fork in the eye of Islam, I'm all for it.

[Kierland]

Fuc*ing shite.

So you pick Hardy, one of the most awkward writers of the English language, to prove you know about pronouns and adverbs and then you top that off by bashing Orwell, who loved Hardy, and took his ideas past the stage of predetermination to show us how to change our fate and I would run this sentence on longer if I wasn’t laughing so hard.

[Dr_Phibes]

George Orwell can admire whoever he likes, that doesn't change the fact that he was a shit writer and a rat. His legacy is a series of terrible books forever referenced by morons. Animals can't talk.

[Dr_Phibes]

Thomas Hardy?

[LTS TRN 2]

No one else calls Orwell a shit writer. What's your supposed criticism? And why on earth would you hunker down with Hardy as an example of...what exactly? Your objection of too many adverbs and pronouns in Rushdie makes me think of course that you're trying to make a joke. There's no joke there , however, and you can't seem to say anything rational, let alone interesting concerning literature or polemics. How about Muslims with machetes? Is is that a little easier for you? You made some meaningless comment about Dawkins and religion being so iccky? What, are you a Christer--and that's why you don't like Orwell or Rushdie? How about Voltaire?

Literary equivalent:

Omg you hate Orwell because (most) animals can’t talk in real life and you can’t fathom what he meant by picking each animal to represent something. Representation is your problem? You are THAT infantile? And then you literally project that in your post with a kids guitar. Tell me you are a manbaby without admitting you’re a manbaby. And to top it off you bring his personality into it. Are you sure you want to suck Hardy’s dick while you do that?

[LTS TRN 2]

Squirmy, how can you be concerned with Orwell when he himself would likely be the target of some seething towel-headed Muslim with a machete? How can you so robustly pretend to ignore the real subject? And it's not merely an interesting subject in the West for the past 1000 years or so, but a very pressing one right now --in London, Paris, Newark and Minneapolis, and of course within the catastrophic shit show of the Biden hoax. Yes, Muslim holidays are now being observed in American public schools--which means taking the day off while everyone still gets paid. :doh:
