You get to cuddle under a warm blanket together on a soft victorian couch, but the book is 'Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs', and you'll be reading it out loud cover to cover.
If you fall asleep she'll throw you into the mansion's basement prison with the other 罪’ｓ.

Ok

Ahem:
We are about to study the idea of a computational process. Computational
processes are abstract beings that inhabit computers.
As they evolve, processes manipulate other abstract things called data.
The evolution of a process is directed by a pattern of rules called a program.
People create programs to direct processes. In effect, we conjure
the spirits of the computer with our spells.

A computational process is indeed much like a sorcerer’s idea of a
spirit. It cannot be seen or touched. It is not composed of matter at all.
However, it is very real. It can perform intellectual work. It can answer
questions. It can affect the world by disbursing money at a bank or by
controlling a robot arm in a factory. Thee programs we use to conjure
processes are like a sorcerer’s spells. They are carefully composed from
symbolic expressions in arcane and esoteric programming languages that
prescribe the tasks we want our processes to perform.
A computational process, in a correctly working computer, executes
programs precisely and accurately. Thus, like the sorcerer’s apprentice,
novice programmers must learn to understand and to anticipate
the consequences of their conjuring. Even small errors (usually called
bugs or glitches) in programs can have complex and unanticipated consequences.
Fortunately, learning to program is considerably less dangerous than
learning sorcery, because the spirits we deal with are conveniently contained
in a secure way. Real-world programming, however, requires
care, expertise, and wisdom. A small bug in a computer-aided design
program, for example, can lead to the catastrophic collapse of an airplane
or a dam or the self-destruction of an industrial robot.
Master software engineers have the ability to organize programs so
that they can be reasonably sure that the resulting processes will perform
the tasks intended. They can visualize the behavior of their systems
in advance. They know how to structure programs so that unanticipated
problems do not lead to catastrophic consequences, and when
problems do arise, they can debug their programs.
Well-designed computational systems, like well-designed automobiles or nuclear reactors,
are designed in a modular manner, so that the parts can be constructed,
replaced, and debugged separately.

Programming in Lisp

We need an appropriate language for describing processes, and we will
use for this purpose the programming language Lisp. Just as our everyday
thoughts are usually expressed in our natural language (such as English,
French, or Japanese), and descriptions of quantitative phenomena
are expressed with mathematical notations, our procedural thoughts
will be expressed in Lisp. Lisp was invented in the late 1950s as a formalism
for reasoning about the use of certain kinds of logical expressions,
called recursion equations, as a model for computation. The language
was conceived by John McCarthy and is based on his paper “Recursive
Functions of Symbolic Expressions and eir Computation by
Machine” (McCarthy 1960).
Despite its inception as a mathematical formalism, Lisp is a practical
programming language. A Lisp interpreter is a machine that carries
out processes described in the Lisp language. The first Lisp interpreter
was implemented by McCarthy with the help of colleagues and students
in the Artificial Intelligence Group of the MIT Research Laboratory
of Electronics and in the MIT Computation Center.1 Lisp, whose name
is an acronym for LISt Processing, was designed to provide symbolmanipulating
capabilities for attacking programming problems such as
the symbolic differentiation and integration of algebraic expressions.
It included for this purpose new data objects known as atoms and lists, which most strikingly set it apart from all other languages of the period.
Lisp was not the product of a concerted design effort. Instead, it
evolved informally in an experimental manner in response to users’
needs and to pragmatic implementation considerations. Lisp’s informal
evolution has continued through the years, and the community of Lisp
users has traditionally resisted attempts to promulgate any “official”
definition of the language. This evolution, together with the flexibility
and elegance of the initial conception, has enabled Lisp, which is the second
oldest language in widespread use today (only Fortran is older), to
continually adapt to encompass the most modern ideas about program
design. Thus, Lisp is by now a family of dialects, which, while sharing
most of the original features, may differ from one another in significant
ways. The dialect of Lisp used in this book is called Scheme.
Because of its experimental character and its emphasis on symbol
manipulation, Lisp was at first very inefficient for numerical computations,
at least in comparison with Fortran.

I like Patchy because she is a fat asthmatic nerd like me, except she has friends. Oh god I wish I had friends too ;_;

Patchy also likes videogames and she is kawaii. And there are lesbians in the game and that's good because I like lesbians and I will never have a girlfriend. Why am I such a loser?!

Patchy is like my dreamgirl she wears pajamas all the time I love that. She is also nice why aren't real girls nice!? I got dumped a lot of times but I love patchy and she wouldn't dump me because she's so nice and cool.

We would play videogames all day and watch Touhou and other cool animes on TV, and I would have sex with her because sex is so good. I wish I could have sex with a girl.
