Can anyone recommend any humorous fictional books ? Probably my favourite book of all time is catch 22 but works such as Irvine Welsh’s Filth and a Confederacy of Dunces are also favourites so anything along those lines would be great
Spotted another lady reading 50 Shades of Grey today. Should we set up a thread to record spots of these sluts?
No, get a life for fuck sake
What’s up with you? Maybe you should head on over to medical advice thread and seek pampering you precious little pussy.
I feel this would be a good thread for the forum and boost poster camaraderie while also allowing us to pour scorn on these lustful women for reading books. I do not care what you think anway. This question was designated for the real men on the forum - the ones who have balls.
:lol:
The ones who go around lurking on women. Deary me!
What’s that supposed to mean? Lurking would imply I’m remaining out of sight for these women - which is completely untrue. I put my hot body, winning smile and enchanting eyes on show at every opportunity for these ladies, to capture the gaze (and lust) they display back to me is a nice treat for my ego. Now, as I said, your feedback is not needed here. Thank you.

It’s great to see chewy reverting to the puke of old recently . Keep it up.
Almost finished Kurt Vonnegut’s ‘Slaughterhouse 5’, a great read, I’m looking forward to reading more of hos stuff.
@Totti - Yes, I’ve seen scores of women reading 50 shades. They really are detestable slags. Happy hunting pal.
@Kinvara’s Passion - do you know if Beevor’s Spanish civil war book is any good?
Read this when I was in Vietnam CM. Made the few weeks there even more enjoyable.
Are you venturing outside of Thailand?
No idea. Wouldn’t be a big reader of war literature but got this one from a friend on a recommendation. Shocking and excellent.
I have come to the conclusion after about 3 chapters that Vernon God Little is just a load of shit

Yeah it’s good alright. The Spanish Civil War would probably be my favourite period to read about but I think Beevor might not have much interest in the ideological background of it. It’s more about the shooting with him.

Not this time. I also bought that book in Vietnam but left it on a bus and never got round to buying it again.
I did read however ‘the sorrow of war’ which is a Vietnamese war story told from the North Vietnamese perspective. Highly recommend it if you like your war books.
I’ve had it for a while and have started it and put it away a few times. There is so many different factions in the war and I find he doesn’t at times explain very well who’s on what side and it gets quite confusing.
My knowledge of the Spanish Civil War is very poor though (thus my purchasing of the book), so maybe if you had an idea of it then such things wouldn’t be an issue. I must give it a go again.
Of his I’ve read both Stalingrad & D-Day and found them very good, although Stalingrad is far superior, due mainly to the fact that its an amazing story in itself.
Yeah, he likes the gore alright.
Started reading this earlier in the week. Interesting so far. After watching some youtube footage of Bowie from 70’s I was amazed at how coherent and healthy the guy is today… anyway, bough the book to see how fcuked up he actually was.
I you liked Filth you should read the prequel to Trainspotting released recently, Skagboys. Great read.
if your looking for a good book about Spain - their history and culture try reading Ghosts of Spain by Giles tremlett…thought it was a great read…
i thought it was a cracking read myself…stick with it another while I say…
Life of Pi has been made into a movie some achievment if they can translate the feel of the book to the big screen…
