Not just a bunch of "Trotskyist, car-hating, Hugo Chavez idolising, newt-fancying hypocrites and bendy bus fetishists."
Watching it on netflix now.
The Antichrist wears a mullet and Billy Ray Cyrus is his minion.TBH, I liked the book better. Ugly stuff is so much uglier in my head than on TV.
True. And the long book is lonnnnnnng.
The last problem gambling training I went to basically broke it down like this. If you are gambling to have fun, y ou are fine. It's no different than dropping dough on a concert, movies, a fancy restaurant, whatever.But if you are seriously doing it as a way to generate income, to make money, you most likely have a problem.And it's like only 8 or 9% of people who gamble that ever develop any level of addiction or dependence.

The miniseries is terrible. The book is awesome, and is hands-down the best thing Stephen King ever wrote.
