Terry Pratchett is the most shoplifted author
100% of FACT!
( King Ralph is drunk, Sat 25 Oct 2003, 18:24, archived)

because his readers
are too skanky to buy the books?
( Lora, Sat 25 Oct 2003, 18:29, archived)

I buy the books...granted I buy them for my dad for christmas or birthday pressies and read them before I wrap them but at I least I buy them :)
( Roxy_Hart is taking advantage of you all, Sat 25 Oct 2003, 18:31, archived)

i actually
have a few myself, all paid for! I've grown a bit anti-Pratchett recently though?
( Lora, Sat 25 Oct 2003, 18:39, archived)

Any particular reason?

Tut. Kids today.

It always used to be Aldous Huxley.

(Edit) No it wasn't. Jack Kerouac. Ah, senility, how I abhor thee
