I will eventually have a profile about me.
But until then, look! An article about neurology that shows how games like SF0 that make us think help stave off dementia! http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,24016992-29277,00.html

[EDIT 2]
My little brother is most of the way better, but now I have school, so tasking is hard. That said, I have a lot of tasks lined up that I am about to start, and I'm really excited about them. In the next week or two, I will probably finish several tasks. After that I may be too busy again.

I will be updating my profile routinely with entertaining and fascinating links.

[EDIT]
I won't be tasking for a while, my little brother just got out of knee surgery (he had a torn meniscus) and while he's recovering, I'll be spending most of my time looking after him, entertaining him, and/or worrying about him.

Why are all the really cool tasks level 3 this era‽ Why‽‽‽‽‽‽
(Also, should one take into consideration that "to press someone's buttons" is an expression meaning to manipulate or anger someone, this task suddenly becomes even harder)

(this the first time I've tried to embed a comic here, fingers crossed that I've done it right!)

There's a couple books in the Discworld series that shouldn't be read before reading some other book, but in general there's no specific order needed to understand them.
I believe the first one he wrote was The Color of Magic, so that introduces a lot of the characters. The witch books don't make sense when read out of order, but I can never for the life of me remember what the correct order is. There's a Vimes book where he goes back in time, but I can't remember which one it is.... That one is best left until after you've read some other Vimes ones too, I think; And the one where Carrot arrives in the city should be read before any other Carrot books, but again I can't recall the title. I think that's about it. Sorry for the disorganized suggestions.

... You know, SF0 really needs a forum for discussions like this.

My favorite character is Death, but Rincewind and Moist are close behind. I'm a bit surprised no one has mentioned Vetinari, though! He's absolutely an amazing character, part villain, part good guy, and entirely awesome.
Honestly, there are very few characters in any of the books I could say I dislike. It's just varying degrees of adoration.

For my favorite book.... Probaby either Going Postal, Pyramids, or Small Gods. Thief of Time, Making Money, and The Hogfather are also awesome. And of course, The Amazing Maurice And His Educated Rodents is fantastic- better, I think, than the entire Hat Full of Sky trilogy, which is saying something since Wee Free Men is usually the first thing I suggest whenever someone asks me for reading suggestions!
... I guess once again I must say I really love all of them.

On both counts.
