Passive-aggressive neighbours be passive aggressive: forcing us to adopt a huge bin that isn’t ours by first rolling it in front of our gate, then rolling it in front of our front door so we can’t get out of the house. Why would we put it back onto the sidewalk every time if it was ours ? Is that what you do to a bin when it’s been naughty or something ?!

so I’ve come across my fair share of glitches in my short time playing skyrim, but I don’t think anything can beat the impromptu riverdance performance my followers just held

RIP Terry Pratchett, One of the greatest fantasy authors.
For those who haven’t read any of his books, I strongly recommend giving his Discworld series a go.
His style is absolutely amazing, and his writing is pretty much fearless. The books can be hilarious while dealing with very serious and problematic topics like racism, sexism, and Death. Terry Pratchett takes fantasy clichés and turns them into something original, he’ll commit to them to the point where they become new again. His plots are fantastic and aren’t limited to one genre. They reach from fantasy-crime, to spoofs of Phantom of the Opera, to the story of a conman who is forced to save a bank (while minding the bank’s chairman, a little dog called Mr.Fusspot). If you’ve read any of the blurbs on his books you’ll know they sound absolutely bonkers.
Discworld is crazy and serious, endearing and deeply disturbing, and for me, has some of the most interesting characters, and especially well-rounded female characters, I have found in fantasy so far.
Needless to say I deeply admire Terry Pratchett’s work. A really extraordinary author who made my world a better place.
1. Colin Firth. 2. Jack Davenport (though why they used Jack Davenport for only 3 minutes of this epic movie is beyond me) 3. Roxy is a kickass heroine who is barely sexualized if at all. 4. Is an action movie that doesn’t fall back on a secondary romantic story line….
