my buddy wouldn’t answer his phone so this weekend was weedless.
DnD rules. Seriously.
why didnt you just go to his house?
^that would require leaving the D&D game.
Details? Have you bought your ticket?
Are you serious? Da Vinci code is an aweful book, Dan Brown is a terrible writer. He has a great story, but he sucks at telling it. And, the entire book is false (it is fiction, but many things which authors normally keep true(such as geography), Brown makes up), off the top of my head; the bathrooms in the Louvre have liquid soap, there are no windows in the bathroom at the end of the Grand Gallery, there are no gates in the Louvre, you cannot see the Pompidou center over the Louvre, there is more than one entrance to the room where the Mona Lisa is, there are not 666 panes of glass in the pyramid, there is an exit from the end of the Grand Gallery (that’s not a fire exit), the metric system is mangled throughout the book, the Louvre has MANY couraters, there are no metal detectors at the Westminster Abbey, and you cannot do rubbings at Westminster Abbey.
/\ If only people like you put that obsessive attention to detail to good use instead of listening the mistakes of a popular author.
p.s. I love ya I’m not trying to insult you; I do the same thing with music.
no have not bought my ticket. I am short of money… I have a ride set up but the cash it depleted. I have 80 bucks.
^Snoop Doggy Dogg, you need to get yourself a jobby job.
^ snoop jawby jawb, you need to get yourself a doggy dog.
dude guys this is fucked up to the max.
naked and baked are practically the same word, but pronounced way differently.
imagine trying to learn english and they’re all like NAKED and then you write down NAKED
then they say BAKED and tell you how to spell it and you’re all like BA-KED? and they’re all NO IT’S JUST BAKED. and you’re like so it’s NAKED not NA-KED? and they’re all NO IT’S NA-KED AND BAKED. ZOMG FOREIGNERS ARE DUMB.
Just wait for the foreigners to figure out two, too, to.
one won juan.
Cept they pronounce Z as zed. Cheese eatin’ surrender monkeys!
add an “s” to the beginning of “laughter”
“slaughter”
makes no sense as far as word meanings or pronunciation
um…
i think what foreigners need to learn is that is over the of equals percent over one hundred.
once they understand that the rest will be pie…
mmmmmmm…pie [/homerdrool]
Drive on the right side of the road you foreign devils!!!
ok.
yesterday after work i went golfing with 2 buddies. there was drinking involved. i was in 1 cart, the other guys were in another. about the 6th hole, i ran over a stick. that stick was wedged in the bottom of my cart for about 50 yards while traveling to the 7th tee box. it was making a weird noise, so i had to stop and knock it loose. when i did that, it made another weird noise. neither one of the other 2 people saw it, but they thought something weird was happening for whatever reason. actual conversation between them after they drove over to where i knocked the stick loose:
scott: “what was that noise?”
mike: “i don’t know.”
scott: “did he run over a squirrel?”
mike: “i don’t think so. i think it was a stick.”
scott: “he took a shit! let’s find it. we’re not leaving here 'til we find it.”
i love golf.
I drank a 40 for the first time in a few years yesterday while playing disc golf.
It brought back memories of nights I don’t remember.
Pessimistic? How does my post prove that? All my first post proves is that I’m a nitpicker, and a little OCD-ish.
Yes they’re minor details, but they’re the kind of details that most authors take the time to research.
I agree with you here, Brown does make many good points about the formation of the Christian church. And, the fact that all of the Gnostic gospels were left out is interesting…
This is just one of those details that most people take the time to research. When you’re setting your novel in a real place, describe the place as it actually is. He makes SO MANY mistakes like this one, it’s obvious that he’s never been to Paris or London, and only glanced at a map once or twice.
Lastly, I’m 17. :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o
