Hey guys. New to this thread. I've recently gotten really into worms and all things related to worms. I heard there are some worms in Dune, is this true? Would someone with a burgeoning interest in worms like this book? I don't love unnecessary sex scenes, tia.

All the sex scenes in the first book are fine

Nobody fucks the worms though, if that's what you're fishing for

It's funny to think that, if the Other Memory actually works through some genetic/physical mechanism and isn't Pure loving Magic, there would hardly be any memories from old people in it. Thousands of generations' worth of memories, but they're all horny 20 somethings and the occasional old guy with his third wife.

Which... would actually explain a lot.

I mean it would also be one single paternal line going backwards which isn't really how it's depicted

Thank you for joining me, Paul. Thufir Hawat has served House Atreides for three generations. He swears you are the finest gamer he has ever taught. Yueh, Gurney and Duncan say the same. It makes me feel very sad that you've wasted your life on this shoot em up poo poo. Have you thought about touching grass

Arrakis teaches the attitude of the knife - chopping off what's incomplete and saying: 'Now, it's complete because it's ended here.' So stop complaining that I'm stealing your kills.

"You let me into your game from the lobby without looking, Paul."

"I heard you call someone a few gamer words, Thufir."

"Those slurs could have been faked!"

"And I'd have known the difference."

"Not the blood, sir. But all of a man’s Mountain Dew, ultimately, belongs to his people - to his tribe. It’s a necessity when you live near the Great Chip. All Dew’s precious there, and the gamer body is composed of some seventy percent Mountain Dew by weight. A normie man, surely, no longer requires that Dew."

Just watched the trailer for Dunkachino Part 2 and I thought it was cool that the music was the Atreides pipes and drums theme from the first film.

I thought it was cool that 20,000 years in the future bagpipes are the only recognizable instrument to survive based solely on their capacity to terrify and annoy.

I used to think pagpipes were a uniquely British Isles instrument but apparently they used to be all over the place, someone called them "the electric guitar of medieval Europe".
