"Over the centuries, mankind has tried many ways of combating the forces of evil... prayer, fasting, good works and so on. Up until Doom, no one seemed to have thought about the double-barrel shotgun. Eat leaden death, demon..."
— Terry Pratchett
More proof that Terry Pratchett was the Alpha Geek.
Its a goddamn shame I never read his books, I really should start the Discworld series. I played the PS1 game of it and loved the crap out of it ((even though I barely got out of the starting areas, due to how stupidly complex and tedious the puzzles are)); and Death in that game was real hilarious, and most likely what started my love for 'Dem' Bones'.
God, you never notice how badly you'll miss something until its gone. Sure you can ask the question, "What will it be like once they're gone?" But it hardly ever crosses your mind, because the works that the produce or create make them seem immortal, like they can go on forever until
they call it quits. Then life brings us back to reality once they're taken away.
Something to lighten this post up: I originally didn't know that Discworld was based off a popular book series, I thought it was just a quirky adventure game that took place on a Disc (like a PS1 CD or PC CD). I didn't know that they actually lived on a Discworld that wasn't a meta reference to game discs.
