i have a habit of starting a book but never finishing it. i've been halfway through Guilty Robots, Happy Dogs for years. it's a book on the philosophy of alien minds and really interesting, right up my alley. i've just never finished it.

Also read short stories online from time to time. I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream is awesome.

i fucking love that story, i've reread it quite a few times and advised other people to read it. it's really sad and twisted. AM is the original psychopathic computer. one of my favourite quotes:
HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.
