AS MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO
==========================
I mentioned Discworld by Terry Pratchett, but I won't give you a link. There's no reason for me to make it easier for you to subject yourself to these travesties.

What a load of bollocks. I would spend eternity reading discworld as opposed to listening to your shitty views. The character of DEATH in the series is hilarious and the satire is just great.

[Just.Kidding]

The worst part about reading Discworld is that by the time I read all of them, I'll have forgotten about most of the books I started with, so I will keep eternally reading Discworld in a neverending hell cycle of enjoyment.

"Do you want to die reading only a couple of novels in that series?"

Legit the reason that I got into Discworld. I was diagnosed in 2019 and it was on the fence wither it was bengin or... not. I was scared out of my mind and the treatments were hell. I was very nervous before surgery so I'd spend the night reading. After a few these I found that spending a few hours with Granny or Vimes really helped calm me down pre-operation.

4 years, 10 operations and 41 books later, I'm still here. I swear it was his magic that pulled me through and I'm sad I never had the chance to express that to him.

[jamjarr]

I feel like that was the kind of joke that Terry would have liked.

You know what?

It's been 7 years since Terry died.

And I'm still missing my yearly dose of a new Discworld novel.

That's never going to go away.

I read the title and was outraged. I went to my restroom and talked to my reflection in the mirror for about half an hour to calm myself down. Then I went out and read the books and watched the film adaptations for nearly an entire 8 months so I could prepare to actually watch your video. Then, after three shots of sheep liniment, a bottle of bear huggers, and glass of scumble, I was ready. I watched your video prepared to rip everything you had to say apart.

I upvoted, wrote this, and must admit that I was wrong, and I stand corrected. Nobody should ever read the Terry Pratchet’s Discworld. They should also never watch the film adaptations, including Hogfather, The Color of Magic, Wyrd Sisters, Soul Music, The Amazing Maurice, and Going Postal.

Definitely not. Not when there are things to be mad about on the internet. Imagine all the surly and clever things you can say to people you don’t know online. I mean, you get to feel smug about that and after all, that’s what life is all about.

This video proves so many people dont watch videos but only read titles

[Xanderqwerty]

He made me love a city police force... and minorities!!! Unforgivable...

[henrya]

For some people the word 'irony' = 'having the attributes of iron'.

[HULK-HOGAN]

I hadn’t read a book in almost 10 years and Terry Pratchett was the solution. He’s amazing

[peameister]

I opened a discworld book when I was younger and I've been stuck here ever since. There's this really tall dude dressed in black stood next to me tutting and looking at this hour glass constantly. The Turtle moves.

[spacequeen]

What do I do if I accidentally read a few of them already? I am afraid I can't stop. I don't want to unintentionally read something written for young people because that would make ME a baby and I am not a baby, I am a grown adult, but reading a book for kids would completely destroy my reputation (and my self image). I am also dismayed to discover they are popular because I never do, wear, say, or consume anything popular. I stopped drinking water years ago and only drink niche liquids now (liquids I find in niches. I don't know what they are. my doctor is knocking on my door right now begging and crying for me to stop but I'll never undo the four padlocks I put on there to keep her out). Please advise I am so close to buying another book and there is just too much at stake

[naattaaqzara]

I've read and reread them. Spent many hours, maybe, days, weeks in total reading DW. I love the footnotes, i read them, too. Yep yep they're way better than endnotes. I started with Small Gods, then Equal Rites, then Witches Abroad. And so on and so forth.

[davidbryden]

Ever since I was a kid (60 years ago) the best way to get me to read a book has been to tell me NOT to!😂😅

[JagoHazzard]

It was good of you to collect all the books so as to save at least one person from them. 

(But yeah, this entertained me and I think Sir Terry would have had a chuckle too)

[r.awilliams]

It's far too late for me. Read all of them, multiple times. In fact, I now identify as Gaspode The Wonder Dog.

[editdebreceni]

At the first minute i was terrified of what's going to be said, but after that first minute this quickly turned into one of my favourite book reviews :D ❤

[JJ-Streaming]

Dude got a whole society of people believing the earth is flat sub-consciously!

[edenjs]

Very good. Your title took me in hook, line & sinker. You missed an 11th major reason not to read Discworld series 'the amount of time you will spend debating which is the best book'. I change my mind every week, so these discussions are never ending, especially as some are more enjoyable as an audiobook. Oh the horrors of so many Discworld options 🤯

[Mrcrat]

Sadly, I came across this video far to late in life. I'm an avid Pratchett fan, now. There's no turning back. I don't think even rehab could help me now.

[grandtheftmanualv]

You could have to told me all that BEFORE I read every DW book (at least twice)!!

No, go on. It's too late for me now. I'm done for...
