On which of the six shortlisted writers will win the 2007 Booker Prize. In case you haven’t been following events I can confirm that, shockingly, J.K. Rowling did not make the shortlist. This doesn’t stop Atom John from sharing his depressingly mundane thoughts about Harry Potter.

Anyone who suggests the Harry Potter person - think again.
The prize is not only for a good story - but for the construction, grammar and use of language.

The Potter books manage a good story - and lack all else.
Atom John, Derby, United Kingdom

I expect he’s already got the other opinions in the set:

  • Big Brother - a big waste of time
  • Glastonbury Festival - getting a bit too commercial these days
  • The BBC - dumbing down
  • Politicians - you can’t trust them

Faced with the infinite banquet of human experience, John opts for a Tesco Value Ready Meal (80% mechanically recovered enthusiasm).

“The only book - THE QURAN

about t ime, lostit, United Kingdom”

Why does this comment remain whilst all the comments containing references to The Bible have been removed by the moderation team?

Dave Trenton, Brighton, United Kingdom

I think I can clear this up for you Dave. Concentrate now because this is a little complex.

It’s because the BBC is run by left-wing muslim agitators who consequently support our hard-left government. Unfortunately, because they’re muslims, they also oppose stuff like “freedom”, “women” and “democracy” so they oppose the government. Also, they oppose the Conservatives and are trying to stop them getting into power because they are not left-wing and also because they are western christians. This is further complicated by the fact that they support the Conservatives who so vigorously oppose the government (who the muslim BBC also oppose because of Iraq but support because they are left-wing). Finally, The Quran is a true story whereas The Bible is just made up! Do you see?

Responses to “What’s Your Favourite Book?”

“An Analysis of the Loss by the Labour Party at the General Election 2008″.

I’m working on the book right now.

[Bushwhackered]

That’s in the fantasy section, I believe. The book to gazump that will be “How I couldn’t make my mind up and lost a generation of voters” by David Cameron. That one will be heading the humour section…

[Vanya_2007], Moray, United Kingdom

I’d like to weigh in with my important opinion on this important debate, but I’m afraid I’m busy having an important argument. We’re trying to decide whether it’s better to have an evil fireman force cat shit up your nose with a jetwash, or have dog shit slowly massaged into your gums by a stinky dentist.

Hypocrites and Racists12 Oct 2007 06:56 pm

These were the most recommended comments from “Should there be greater understanding between religions?”. Check out this shower of hypocritical cunts demonstrating “how to tolerate the muslim bogeyman”.

The problem is that it is all one way traffic. Muslims expect the Christian West to bend to their will whilst persecuting and marginalising Christians in the East. eg In Indonesia, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia etc.

When they start building Cathedrals in Saudi Arabia then we’ll know that they want real dialogue.

Mike, Liverpool

It seems to me that most Christians don’t have a problem with Muslims - it is Muslims that have a problem with everyone else.

Giles, London

Where are the Churches in Saudi Arabia?

What understanding and tolerance of other faiths is there in Muslim countries?

Elizabeth Philips, Halifax, United Kingdom

I think that the moslem scholars should have addressed the letter to their own leaders.

Islam appears to be far less tolerant to Christianity than Christians are to Moslems.

Atom John, Derby, United Kingdom

Muslims demand an one-way-tolerance.
Islam is a bigger thread to the freedom of thinking than communism ever was.

Heiner Merz, Stuttgart, Germany

Beats me. You kill a few hundred thousand of them in an illegal war, you arrest them and hold them without charge, torture them, murder their children and generally treat them as subhuman but are they grateful? Are they fuck. If anything, more of them seem to be falling in behind aggressive lunatics promising Jihad against the west!

I’m not sure what to suggest to improve the situation. Perhaps you should watch a scaremongering documentary about some one-eyed fundamentalist fruitcake with hooks for hands and use it to explain why all 1.5 billion muslims are backwards, intolerant lunatics. That might help.

A missile defense system is possibly the stupidest idea since the eight-track. There’s just no way either Russia or the U.S. could build a system that would remotely minimize the damage of a full scale launch against the country or a terrorist rogue missile.
ross lar

Thank you Mr Defense expert. Missile defense systems are a proven technology and a missile defense system in Europe could save millions of lives in case of an attack by a less than rational state (who said Iran?).

Azam Azam

You did, you credulous pea-brained cock.

Delusions of Grandeur12 Oct 2007 03:17 pm

My earlier comment has rightly vindicated the statement by Putin today. He has warned the US and has asked them to retrieve their European Defense System and warning to withdrawing the 1987 agreement. Putin espouses much of the policies of the late Leonid Breshnev in stark deference to Gorbachev. Putin’s perestroika is based on a militarized Russia in congruence with Bush in the US. Surrounding Russia with allies only increases tension. Dr. Rice should advice Bush to resolve not aggravate.

Richard Kamalanathan, Kuala Lumpur

Maybe you should take that dictionary back to Poundland.

Dr. Goblin got home from work last night and thought “Hmm.. I wonder what should be done about hospital infections?”. At first it seemed straightforward.. “Fund the NHS properly, disembowel everybody who has anything to do with PFI and stop trying to sneakily privatise the health service you greedy black-hearted turdgobblers” but if it was that obvious, somebody would have done it already, wouldn’t they? It seemed that she’d never find an answer. Luckily, our brightest and best have been working day and night on the problem and she found the results of their research on HYS.

Start sacking these so-called “nurses”
[mango-], Cardiff, Wales

If they were any fucking cop they’d be cleaning the hospitals themselves, down on their hands and knees, mopping up piss and shit with their own hair.

My husband was infected back in Feb 2003 after an op which had complications. He had diarrhea for 24 months thereafter, no stool sample was taken. Finally he had a biopsy taken during a colonoscopy by the very surgeon we had complained about because of the problems when under his consultancy. The results showed no infection. We did not believe anything which this consultant said, and no treatment was given to my husband who was in great pain for 2 years. Finally Danone Actimel cured him.
Lynn Craig, gateshead, United Kingdom

Although I usually mistrust all foreigners, I reckon we could do with more doctors like this Danone chap. He’s not muslim is he?

Racists11 Oct 2007 03:59 pm

Woody has a lot of views about stuff. Unfortunately HYS has given him the opportunity to share them.

The problem with Africa is the fact the people have not evolved mentally as we in the west have, they are still stuck in the tribal era, except they use guns instead of spears.

As harsh as it sounds this is simply natures way of continuing evolution, they will destroy each other because they simply are not capable of uniting and being at peace with each other.

This is the equivalent of Homosapiens watching Neandathols fight and kill each other. We should not intervene in any way.

Atheist Woody, Burton on Trent, United Kingdom

One day, many generations from now, we can only hope that the population of Africa has evolved to your level. Although, I’m not sure evolution works that way (and by ‘that way’, I mean ‘backwards’).

It seems my comments (before the mods deleted them) started an arguement about immigration.

That was not my intention, I merely wished to say that the more immigrants come to the area the less houses are available, thus the prices for the available ones go up.

Please explain to me how a polish man for example has enough money to migrate here, get a car, and then still have enough money to immediately get an apartment or house.

I do 40 hours a week on average wage and I cant afford it.

Atheist Woody, Burton on Trent, United Kingdom

I don’t understand it either. How can someone from ANOTHER COUNTRY have more money than an intelligent BRITISH person like yourself? I heard they hadn’t even invented money in Poland and they had to buy everything with beads and shiney pebbles.

Racists11 Oct 2007 01:35 pm

“What should be done to stop the spread of hospital infections?”

It has crossed my mind that it is more likely to be spread by muslim staff who because the gel is Alcohol based may not be using it that is if the reports of muslim staff refusing to treat people with sexual diseases or alchol problems are to be believed then they would be against rubbing it in their hand.

about t ime, lostit, United Kingdom

I heard that they explode five times a day whilst facing Mecca.
