The good thing about getting to the end is that you can start again from the beginning, and see them all differently with the foreknowledge of the whole thing.
I sometimes have to remind myself they aren't real people because I do feel proud of how far many of them have come. No matter who you are, you can probably find a character you can relate to that overcomes what has been holding them back. |

That could happen even in 2026. Especially if the fiddle player busts out a sick rendition of Devil Went Down to Georgia. |

I've always had a soft spot for Rincewind, personally. The inveterate coward that gets shit done anyway just because no-one else seems to want to. |

Once he can no longer run away, the only option left is to be awesome! 😁 |

Man, I generally object to film adaptations of books because they never get it right, but I would so love to see him taking control of the robot army in Interesting Times get put to film. And he invented Vegemite! |

Imagine being so starved for intellectual stimulation that you'd stand and watch a seven-hour Presidential debate. I might possibly be able to do that today, but I would have eaten my own eyeballs by hour three. |

1880? Their brains weren't pure, they were thoroughly pickled in various distilled liquors. Which since most transportation of the day knew its way back home, that was fine.
The laudanum helped. |

I recently watch the Amazing Maurice adaptation, and that wasn't bad. They skipped some of the piper stuff and everything about the green wobbly bit, but it was a good time overall. I would have no objection to seeing a good live action or animated Mad Hamish either, I love that guy. |

When one of the "debaters" is trump or any other politician like him, enduring even fucking 10 minutes is a torture |

The adaptations of Hogfather and Going Postal were actually pretty good too. David Jason was sorely miscast as Rincewind, though. And Twoflower was written as a parody Japanese tourist, not American. I recall there was a Cohen The Barbarian short film put out some years ago that showed promise for a film adaptation of The Silver Horde that sadly never happened. |

I would settle for 56 cable channels, FM Radio, and a Sega Genesis levels of stimulation. Now I've gotta have 3 screens simultaneously (phone, laptop, and TV) and a 20 oz Red Bull to feel anything |

I've seen Hogfather twice, but I didn't know there was a Going Postal adaptation, I will have to seek that out! |
