[damppanties]

About time.

 

[geronimo_appleby]

About time.

why? what has he done that's so deserving?

 

[damppanties]

why? what has he done that's so deserving?

The same thing Salman Rushdie did.

What would you think is deserving of a knighthood then?

 

[geronimo_appleby]

The same thing Salman Rushdie did.

What would you think is deserving of a knighthood then?

so what did rushdie do?

a lifetime of devotion. a lifetime of sacrifice. that might do it.

 

[Lady Reiha]

Hogfather movie= Awesome.

 

[damppanties]

a lifetime of devotion. a lifetime of sacrifice. that might do it.

And Rushdie did that?

 

[geronimo_appleby]

And Rushdie did that?

what?

when?

not in my lifetime.

 

[damppanties]

what?

when?

not in my lifetime.

Ah. So you don't really have a problem with the man, just the reason for giving it, which according to you shouldn't be literary excellence or popularity. Too bad you aren't the Queen.

No! It wasn't sarcastic. It was gently amused.

I don't feel Salman should get it. I don't feel he shouldn't get it either. Don't much care for the man. But I do feel that since he has it, Pratchett is totally qualified to get it too, that's all.

it would appear, in a roundabout way, that we agree?

kinda.

lewis hamilton got the MBE.

why? a single of year of just making it?

balls.

anyway, this thread isn't about the why's, wherefore's, or bollocks about sir terry or lewis.

it was a celebration of acheivement.

 

[Stella_Omega]

Hey, why shouldn't people be honored for the happiness they've added to the world? More of that, says I!

I raise a toast to the gentleman.
