When I was a kid, tucked into bed, my Dad would read The Hobbit to me. I'd pretend to be asleep so he'd stop, then I'd sneak out of bed and read ahead.

Just finished reading a collection of David Hume's works. Holy fucking shit it's like my eyes have finally been open. What to read now?

okay I wrote all of your recommendations except the bible one on my notebook and I will be reading the Lord of rings .

i have smelt but one pussy in my life and i cant even remember it. pussy ought to smell. its what they say about publicity, bad publicity is better than none. smelly pussy is better than no smell. imagine the smells of hundreds of pussys, each unique, and being able to recall the girl that made each one. having a library of pussy smells. imagine walking past a sewer drain and getting a smell and it reminds you of Alice from Provo, or walking past the guy selling raw meats at a grocery store and recalling, like Severian, a jarring memory that stops you in your tracks, of Shaniqua from the Oceanside strip club two winters ago

Just imagine the smells

thanks anon

>I have never read any of the Harry Potter books
>I have never even taken a slight curiosity about the property beyond what was absolutly unavoidable through popular culture
>It's been made fairly clear to me that Dumbledore was the bearded guy, and that Snape was Alan Rickman, but I've only gotten these impressions through pure cultural osmosis-I never looked any of it up. Voldemort was the lizard guy? And I gather that quidditch was the soccer thing on the brooms.
>I can still remember when the last book was released, and I felt a deep personal relief: "finally, another year or three of the stupid movies, whatever they're about, and this meme can finally fucking die".

I realize that the above is self-defeating in a way (acknowledging the cultural influence) but I felt like gloating about sitting out an easily hated literary meme.
