I used to see a Pratchett looky-likey on the way to work each day
Same hat, style of dress, glasses, beard, the works. What was infuriating about him wasn't the resemblance but that he would walk down the street whilst reading from a small laptop. A Darwin award waiting to happen.

What. A. Spastic.

I just don't get Pratchett
Sorry folks, but I don't.
I tried reading some of his stuff years ago but it just didn't grab me.
I haven't read Lord of the Rings or Hitchhikers Guide.

Does this mean I have to leave the internet?

Oh the shame!
You don't have to leave but you will be put on a list and have to go about introducing yourself to other internet denizens making them aware of your hideous crimes.

To be honest I haven't read Lord of the Rings either. Read most of Hitchhikers Guide but I found the quality dipped later on. Read some Pratchett years ago but am not compelled to read any more, but then I have the same experience with most writers, three or four books is usually my limit before their style starts to grate.
