I think you need to explain the "cringeing" word... It's not in my dictionary....

To cringe... hmm, google doesn't do very well. hang on.,..

This seems to be an ex-dictionary useage.

To say something is cringeworthy is to say that it's so obviously bad you feel embarrassed for the person responsible for it. That's as close as I can think.

OK! I see what you mean.
But still...
I think we need to ask people WHY they like the book...
My guess is that it's not because of the literary qualities, but the constant riddle/code solving in the book that appealed to their "notpr0n-personalities"

That was the reason for me anyway...

Good night!

Good night. Maybe one day I'll make an attempt to read it and *gulp* ignore the ludicrous writing. There are just so many other books out there, it didn't strike me as worth my time.

Yeah, maybe you should make another try, after all...

hmmm, maybe

Ok guess I will add my two cents to this survey.

How would you describe your personality?
Easy going for the most part, but I do have some shy traits about me also

What interests have you got (beside notpr0n of course)?
I do a fair amount of reading, as well as out door activites (mostly thoise in the extreme nature). I also do enjoy serving my community (Fire Dept, and law enforcement - both part time) Plus my biggest interest is my career - Emergency Medicine and more specifically Airemedical Transport.

What do you like to do on vacation and leisure time?
Mostly spend time with my family, but also I enjoy traveling, and sight seeing, with a little time for golfing thrown in from time to time also.

Do you like to watch sports?
Yes, American football and soccer, and college basketball

Do you like Video or Computer games? What kind of games?

I play some not all that much though. I play mostly Splinter Cell, Medal of Honor, Halo, and Grand Theft Auto, Also enjoy Flight Simulator

Do you like to read? What kind of books?
I think I answered this already but any way, I enjoy anyting by Hemmingway, The Art of war, The Cell by John Miller, also several more classics outside Hemmingway. Can't find myself interested in the Harry Ptter collection though and I have read the Da Vinci Code, just wouldn't call it a favorite.

What kind of movies do you like?
I actually don't find myself watching many movies, but I do enjoy an adventure from time to time. I have enjoyed The Day After Tomorrow, K2, Vertical Limit, as well as any American Firefighter atleast - Ladder 49, and BackDraft.

What kind of music?
This is an easy one....I will listen to anything that has a beat and rhythem....

Or maybe not! You could always play notpr0n instead!

Reading Lila: an inquiry into morals by Robert M Pirsig while I sit at tempend.

double post

Oops, didn't think the forums allowed that.

I am currently 20 years old. I live in upper NY. I work for an engineering firm, I spend about "2" hours on not pron every day. I enjoy gaming. I guess I have never been really good at puzzles. but I have always finished them. althoguh this one is proving a challenge. I hope that I am not still working on it whewn an atom bomb is set to stirike my hometown, because I will continue working on it. I am not going to college. I enjoy reading mostly sci fi I am shy, I saw that as a common theme among us not proners. I have traveled a little buit, but never off this continent. I used to live in WA and did a lot of bike riding. here, I have started some kayaking (whitewater) but not terribly active anymore. I have a dog too. he likes long walks/jogs. and I guess thats about it.

thanks for sharing

I forgot to add that I also enjoy going to sci fi kons. althoguh I have only been to two, everyone ahs to start somewhere, and playing paintball.

as you can see by my extra posts, i am unorganized, I do not like watching sports, I enjoy some outdoors stuff as mentioned above, I liked Dan Brown as a writer, I am trying to read all of his books, I have little time, because I am trying to figure out not pron perhaps? hehe. I thouroghly enjoyed both davinci and angels and demons.

vacations are reserved for skiing, hiking, kayaking, biking, and sleeping, ooh and reading lots

kinds of computer games. hrmm I guess mostly FPS like splinter cell chaos theory. but I also play other "filler" games until the next "splinter cell" comes out. I also like war games like battlefield, I am currently playing KOTOR II, I beat it in a week and a half, same with splinter cell chaos theory. I spend most of my money on my computer, but the rest goes into my horrible car, and my bike. I am saving for a new car currently that way it should stop consuming my monies so I can spend more of my paycheck on computer [H]ardware. thats a bit more of an update I think I would have taken less time if I had copied the questions. heheheheheheeh
