No more, I am done with koontz.
Gave up on koontz half-way through the first book i read of his. One of the odd Thomas ones.

Tried to get interested in it but couldn't. Put me off reading any more of his.

How the fuck do you find the time to read?

I'm not angry, mate, just a tad annoyed at you breathing. Any good books that can help me with that, Dr. Phil?

I wouldn't concern yourself with my issues my friend, you seem to have plenty of your own to work on.

I'd recommend How to win friends and influence people from looking at the failed attempts on the weather thread.

I actually read that one; utter bollocks.

I'm not here to win friends, mate. I have a life in the real world, you see.
May sound like gibberish to you. Compulsively masturbating to the Matrix will do that.
