Just finished A Feast for Crows a couple mins ago and I realized it just beat my previous record for longest book - it was originally The Stone of Tears at 987 pages...this one beats 1,000.
What's the longest book ya'll have read?

Wow I'm truely impressed...your school owned a book that had 1,500 pages in it? Biggest book I ever saw or had to read in HS was maybe 700 pages or so. Pathetic. Always thought it was funny that I read bigger books than they could supply me.

Lol stoner. Everybody is always surprised and wonderous at how well I read for smoking so much weed. I love throwing societies' theories back in their face. I read more profficiently than your average person in any given age group. So if weed makes you stupid, what are the rest of ya if I can read better?

The uncut version of "The Stand" I think. Unless you count the Amber Chronicles by Roger Zelazny which is really ten books in one volume.

reading doesnt wholly determine ur intelligence, neither does weed make u stupid,solvents make you stupid.
btw i always wonder why 85% of the threads u start end up having at least something about weed.

First of all, you're exegerating terribly. Second, they end up about weed when some jackass like your wonderful self comes along and BRINGS IT UP. God are you that stupid? Are you trying to imply I'd like everybody to know that I smoke weed? I'm not even that big of a stoner anymore, and even if I were, I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT ME.
EDIT: Yes, marijuana kills brain cells. In other words, it makes you slower and stupider over time. You're wrong. It's much more than solvents.
And again yes, reading does correlate with your IQ. Did I ever say it's the only indication? No.

i read a really old copy of the lord of the rings once, it was all in one book, cant rememeber how long, it was a LONG time ago and i dont think i have the book anymore.
And before you start to argue its not one book, it was origannaly going to be one book but the publishers thought it was too big and they split it up.

Holding in a sneeze also kills brain cells. So do a lot of other normal things. That doesn't necessarily mean you get slower and stupider over time. Remember, we only use 10% of our brains.

That's just a number some scientists came up with. Not to mention the fact that everybody is different and has different capabilities and capacities.
And I won't say for sure, but I'd think that holding in a fatty bong rip of some dankety dank would kill maybe just a couple more brains cells than holding in a sneeze.

If you didn't give a shit about what people thought of you, you wouldn't need to flame me over my opinions on what you said.

well i guess you'd be the one to know

you said:
"So if weed makes you stupid,

If somebody flames me I'll flame them back. Same way I'd hit someone back if they hit me. That's how I am. That doesn't mean I give a shit about other people's opinions of me. If I wanted to make everyone like and approve of me, I wouldn't be such an asshole to everybody, now would I?

Then you went ape shit on me.
