I could probably get through every sharpe book in less than a month tbh, it's just such gripping reading e.e
Never heard of this series. It seems pretty long; is it worth getting into?
I would say so
The sharpe series is set in the Napoleonic era, following the titular character across most of the big battles and events that happened during the peninsular war <.<
You've got chronological and print order, chrono is probably best because it starts off with sharpe in india as an infantryman and it explains how he rose up from the ranks to an NCO, then an ensign and so on.
If you like that time period, redcoats vs bluecoats vs greencoats and big old sieges etc then I'd highly recommend it. It's great military historical-fiction and the author puts a lot of effort into his research too, with a footnotes section to explain where he took liberties <.<
If that's not to your taste, he's got a few different series too Medieval (Grail quests) and Saxon era stuff iirc, but I haven't read a single one of his books that has disappointed me >.>
The books are all pretty cheap too so I'd say give Sharpe's Tiger or Sharpe's Rifles a shot <.<
Are you up to date with Uhtred?
I'm afraid not <.<
I don't order them on amazon because i'd end up buying the lot and bankrupting myself
case in point after i got a few yotsuba mangoes from a certain friend, i went and bought the other 10 a week later <_<
so i get cornwell books when i see them in book shops and my average spend per visit is ~£100 ;-;
once a year is all i can do
but yeah, only found grail quest and sharpe books so far
>_>
m8 Uhtred is so cool tho
I shall keep an eye out <.< What are the titles of the series?

We were all lined up in our platoon bay, and one of my Drill Sargeants was strolling through lecturing us about one thing or another. As he walked though, he stopped and did a double take on one of my battle buddies that had pretty bad acne scarring. Then, he spit out a gem that I'll never forget. "What the fuck? What the fuck happened to your face? It looks like someone lit it on fire and tried to put it out with a pitchfork." He had so many great one liners, I wish I could remember more of them for you. golden

Based Assad will continue to clean up his country, one piece of rebel trash at a time.
Just watch everyone come crawling back to the realisation that he is the lesser of all the evils in that country, and the only hope of a half-stable future where people aren't just beheaded in the street for their religion.
tfw you will never be as enlightened as assad
tfw your people will never make up beat music for you

What do you struggle with? hmm probably the worst and most enduring issue is the PeeTeeEssDee It was fairly bad a few years ago, then it got treated and went quiet but for some reason it's flared up again recently and it's starting to get to me. Have you let it define you?
Through and through. Because it happened when I was young enough to not know what the fuck it was and old enough to be fully aware of it, I figured out my own way to handle it. Which surprise surprise was fucking terrible and instead of getting over it with a little bit of counselling or what have you it's burned it's way through me to the point where I'm pretty sure that it is me. still After last week's episode, I'm going to see someone about it soon because I could really do without going all fucking flippy in the middle of the day. who knows, they might have a clue where to begin fixing me e.e

this doesn't actually bother me that much
I'm far more interested in the premise of the film than anything to do with cloverfield

What kind of play has a hanging scene?
Comedies
Tragedies
Romance shite
Historicals
You can stick a noose in any kind of play really
I don't know any fucking comedy that has a hanging scene. Historicals I can understand why.
They should have gag rope instead of the real thing so it can be easy to snip off in case shit goes wrong.
It depends on how it's written, you can have a play about gallows humour - quite literally.

I'm still hoping DICE goes for WWII for Battlefield 5. Frostbite 3/4 destruction physics on Stalingrad, Normandy, Berlin and so forth would be fucking brilliant.
I can't wait to launch a sherman through the air to cripple a banzai plane e.e

I dunno if a kickstarter is gonna be the WW2 game I want, but it might shove the industry back 70 years again if it's a roaring success sooooooo

I love those black israelites, best trolls known to man.
How dare you imply these brave souls speak falsehoods. I'll have you know they intend to enlighten us with the mostly-unheard truth you fucking racist.

It's more along the lines of Emiya but close enough
GATE has had quite a few fate references in it so far, like the episode with the specops team - all their callsigns were servant classes and the target was the 'grail'
Oh man I almost forgot about that. That killed me when I first saw it/
yep I can't quite remember the other but I think they use similar callsigns again in S2 I think there was something else as well
