IIRC, some Anon made a thread complaining that one of his professors criticised his writing as trying to sound too old-fashioned, verbose etc.

He was asked to post some of his writing and this is what we got.

The person listed the book as "currently reading" making his review of the book pending. His friend david commented on this currently reading status which later turned into a review when the guy typed something in the review box.
